This week, we are Guest Detectives at the CSI Challenge and wow, was it fun! Diving into the case file, I knew I had pool time photos and a Simple Stories collection that would perfectly match the color scheme.
Foiled See – Through Window For Scrapbook Layouts
Under the Evidence section of the case file, there are specific elements to include. The main element I based my layout on was a quadrant design. With 4 sections, I was easily able to include many other different elements including, stripes and woodgrain, fruit and clouds, as well as glasses and a black and white pattern.

• Deco Foil™ Clear Toner Sheets • Distressed Lines
• Deco Foil™ Transfer Sheets • Jade
• Deco Foil™ Transfer Sheets • Denim
• Memory Tape Runner XL ™ • Refill
• Simple Stories – Hello Summer – Collection Kit
• Simple Stories HELLO SUMMER 12 x 12 Collection Kit
For the Testimony section of the case, I focused on the Topic (which was to document something summer) and the Presentation (which was to use a circular journaling spot).To break out of the grid a bit and add a fun foiled element to my layout, I created two rectangular cut out pieces on my background cardstock. I backed them with two pieces of Distressed Lines Clear Toner Sheets. One strip, I covered with Denim Foil and the other I covered with Jade foil. Placing them behind the open rectangles, creates a foiled window on my layout.
Check out this video to see how you can easily create a foiled window on a 12 x 12 scrapbook layout! And be sure to check out the CSI challenge for tons of inspiration! Thanks for stopping by!

July 12, 2018 at 11:30 am (6 years ago)Loved your layout and how you put two of those “barred” transparent sheets to use on the same area. I would love to see more of these videos as I haven’t had very good luck with the foil in the past. I did purchase a laminator and from your instructions bet I could get it to work now. Thanks you so much.
