No thanks

I really enjoyed working on this case file :)

I used all of the colours, at least as close as possible.
From the Evidence --> Circles, Repeated elements, Metals, and I Put something upside down.
From the Testimony --> Started my journaling with "Listen", and I Document something related to technology.

The photo was taken from Google Images.

My journaling reads: Listen, I get it. We live in an electronic world. Anything you might possibly want to know, or buy, is but a few keystrokes away. Cell phones, Smart phones, Androids, iPhones, iPads, Kindles. These devices are everywhere. They are used to make phone calls, send/receive e-mails, text messages, take photos, watch videos, surf the net, listen to music, and scan bar codes. Add some of the thousands of available apps and the list of what they can do is endless. Soon many of the things we grew up with will no longer exist. Gone will be the days of getting a handwritten letter in the mail. Children will no longer write their lessons in notebooks. Magazines and newspapers will be read on-line. Technology is moving at the speed of light. Funny thing is I still haven’t jumped on board that speeding train. I do not own any electronic device, including a cell phone, nor do I wish for any of them. You will not see me text messaging while driving my car, or talking on my phone while doing my groceries. I do not feel the need to be available anywhere, at anytime. Yes, these gadgets are convenient and time saving but, there is still something to be said of doing things the old-fashioned way. I still love to write by hand. I still enjoy reading a hard cover novel. I still wear a watch. For the time being, as long as land lines and home computers are available, I am content. So if you ever need to talk to me, please call my home phone. If I’m there, I’ll answer. If not, please leave
your name and number, and I will get
back to you as soon as possible.

Thank you for stopping by and for your comments. :)

Comment by Keandra Perkins-Willis on July 24, 2012 at 10:41am: YES!!!! Even though I own techy devices I do feel the need to unplug at times! This is awesome!!!

Comment by Eila Sandberg on July 19, 2012 at 11:54am: Wow Jacynthe! I so wish I could be like you and jump off the techy train, alas it's impossible because of my job. My only attempt at revolution is to continue hand writing my christmas letters with a fountain pen. You really are such a marvellous storyteller! Love your clean beautiful page, just as Sylvia says; your journalling is just like a patterned paper! xox

Comment by Sylvia Mellander Ekman on July 19, 2012 at 5:28am: Fabulous page! Love how your journalling is like a patterned paper -beautiful! And what a story! I agree with Debbi -such a storyteller!

Comment by Debbie Standard on July 15, 2012 at 10:44am: Love your page - although I have moved into the cell phone age it's because of my kids - your page design is just fabulous though - love it page

Comment by Anna-Karin on July 15, 2012 at 5:47am: This is awesome Jacynthe! I totally agree with you on the cell phone matter. Although I do have one (my mom's old phone), I don't really like to receive calls on it and I don't like being available all the time. In fact, I tend to 'forget' my cell phone on quiet mode a lot of the time. Love the topic of your layout and the design is great.
