This kit features the wonderful Pion Design Grandma's Schoolbook Collection and Renea Harrison's handmade butterflies. Scraps Of Elegance is the only club to feature these exquisite butterfly embellishments.

As a GUEST Detective this is how I solved the Case #42
paper & diecuts I used here were in a previous Scraps Of Elegance kit September   Nostalgia kit........Evidence: Circles, Modeling Paste.
  Testimony: 12 things my son could not live @ the age of 9.
Next 
 is Case #43

As a GUEST Detective this is how I solved the Case #43
the date is wrong on this & I only picked up on this late last week & it was to late to remove it & resend it to Debbi. SO! I thought I just let you know instead... 
The date should be 2nd September NOT! 2nd of February I really don't know what I was thinking when I did the date????
Evidence: Damask, Something transparent. 
Testimony: Document a Special event.
