Back In The Day

Hi Again,

Today I give you my take on the prompt challenge over at Another Freakin' Scrappy Challenge

http://another-freaking-scrappy-challenge.blogspot.com.au/2014/04/prompt-challenge-1-april-2014.html

The Challenge was to scrap a pastime from your youth.

My favourite pastime when I was young was Ten-pin Bowling. I Started when I was 6, was bowling 5 times a week between ages of 15 & 18.

These types are challenges I find difficult as there are not many pic of me when I was young, don't know why, its just something my parents didn't do, perhaps that's why I am always taking heaps of pics & scrap now.  - so they will have heaps to look back on.

Anyhow, for this challenge I used all I had of me Bowling which was some newspaper clips.

 
What I liked about doing this Challenge was looking back on these times. I don't think I've looked at these in 20+years.
 
Have used White Kaisercraft Cardstock, Kaiser  Chevron Template with Mr Hueys Tan Mist.
PP, Stickers are from Kaiser Attitude  Range.
 
Thanks for Looking,
John.
