TESTIMONY - CHOOSE AT LEAST 1 CLUE

• Journal about a childhood memory
• Choose one of these prompts about friendship.
• Tell your story through dialogue.
• Inspiration Words: giggle, friends, enjoy-- use these as inspiration for your journaling, not just as a title.

 And here is how I solved the case:

The Scheme:

I used all 5 colours. For the pistachio I mixed a few colours of craft paint and painted 2 ice cream balls which were a turquoise colour and used the same paint for the drippings as well as the bow on the ice cream cone.

Evidence:

Animal Accents - Teddy Bear

Polka Dots - Gesso Paste Polka dots om background paper, Polka Dot Ribbons

Drips - Pistachio craft paint drippings from the top of the page as well as from the ice cream

Wood - 3 Teddy Bears

Stickers - 2 round, 'Sweet' and the striped 'ribbon'

Border Punch - Brown strip and square behind the photo

Sprinkles - Beads, half pearls and rhinestones on the Ice cream

Dry Embossing - The grid lines on the ice cream cone, cuttlebug flowers on green card stock behind photo

something cone shaped - the ice cream cone

3 of something - 3 wooden teddy bears

Testimony:

For the testimony I chose to 'sprinkle' dialogue onto the background of the LO.

Teddy said : "Thank you so much for bringing me along to this lovely picnic!"

Michaela said: "Oh!, it's only a pleasure Teddy! I am enjoying it too!"

Teddy said: "*Pffffewww!* it's a pity it is so HOT though . . ."

Michaela said: "Hmmmmm . . . just imagine . . . .  a TALL stacked pistachio, strawberry, chocolate and vanilla ice cream. . . ."

Teddy said: "Whooo-whooo! Now THAT sounds SUPER delicious! Can we get some of those? "Pllllease?"

Alphabet Letters for the Title

It's raining and the light is very poor. I had to scan the layout, thus also no close-ups for now.
