Unexpected colors *CSI Case File #8*

We all like our layout colors to work well with our photo, to make it shine or pop off the page, but other things also effect our colors on our pages. Sometimes we are influenced by the theme, such as Holidays, Beach, Zoo, or Disney Parks. I have wanted to scrap this photo for a long time. I have alot of photos of us standing at the entrance of Disney World and you are tempted to use Disney fun colors, most likely red, blue, black, yellow, green... I saw this weeks CSI: Color, Stories, Inspiration Case file #8 Challenge and then I found this photo and I thought it wouldn't work for Disney, but my guys are wearing the right colors. I really like the way it turned out. I used some MME, Basic Grey, and Pink Paislee papers and I was totally inspired by the Star theme. I cut my stars with my cricut, and the edges are just a couple of punches with a border punch - sometimes it's fun not to punch the whole edge.

 For "evidence" I used lots of stars, Stickles (liquid element), a solid background, my title is glittery for the sparkle. Can I say that I really love the "Evidence" category of the challenges :) Then for the "testimony" category, I went for the stellar inspiration and used words from "When you wish upon a star".
