This is the colour scheme for CSI this week.
4 of those colours are in our Counterfeit Kits and I own red mist plus several masks.

I started by using a newsprint paper Year-O-graphy by Simple stories. I misted through a raindrop mask to create by background.
Next I layered my photo on several scraps of paper, including a polka dot, spirals and text.
I've added flowers, vellum leaves and enamel dots as well.
At the top of the layout are felt clouds.
Tucked inside the layout, next to the doiley is a tiny book for details about Lexie to be written.

My title area used stickers from the "Take a hike" Simple stories range.
