"Dreamer" - for CSI #256 June challenge

Hi there!
 
I have not had time to enter a challenge in months.... but good old facebook - the CSI case #256 popped up on my newsfeed and demanded I create for it!!
 
Here is my page:
 
 
To create the page - I added some plasterers mesh across the page, then swiped some Colour Blast Colour Paste (red fire engine) and Colour Artist Ink in Cranberry into the mesh. I paint swiped the background with a wide brush using Colour Artist inks in Mermaid (turquoise). And added gold splatters using Colour Shimmer Cube. Thank you Colour Blast for an easy no fuss background!! Then a heap of random black stamping and black pen doodling.
 
 
This is the CSI challenge. I tried to stick to the colour scheme, but my "yellow" seems too a little too orange now that I look at it! Never mind! I added other elements for the challenge - from the evidence list - grid, dots, solid white background, wet mediums, cactus, washi tape, numbers, etc. 
 
 
I used a combination of stickers from Pink Fresh studios (Let your heart decide) to embellish the page.
 
I also added flowers and bling from my lovely D-lish Scraps stash!
 
 
The cactus sticker came from a sticker pack from the  fun My Minds Eye Wander collection.
 
 
And check out the cute little red heart Charms Creations Terrific Tab.....
 
 
 
Thanks for looking. Hoping to make more time to do these challenges regularly!

Brilliant page - it doesn't matter about matching the exact colours, you were obviously inspired by the Case File. I love all your gorgeous mixed media work in the background,the yummy textures and layers and those stunning photos :o)
