25 Chennai (Scraplifting Eila)

I love this case file because of the bonus challenge and I chose Eila's mixed-media style of scrapping (more specifically case file #19). My page has the following -
The scheme - all the colors (It is pouring here and all the editing I did to makeup for the poor light altered the darker brown and made the gold look yellow !)
Evidence - Foliage (chippies), clouds (in the photo), borders (lace), shadows (LOL...lots of those today!) and gold accents. I did not go all the way down to read the detailed clues and missed out on the gold METAL accents specification.Silly me! Hence the gold glimmermist on the LO.
Testimony - I chose to document about my hometown, Chennai. Although I moved to Hyderabad 11 years ago to be with my dh, my heart still belongs to Chennai. The best part is that my parents and extended family still live there. So Chennai is HOME to me in spirit!
