Personal Best

The challenge over at Once Upon A ... Sketch this fortnight is to scrap about what you're good at. I'm not one of those scrappers who hates to scrap about themselves but I did struggle for a while trying to work out what I was good at. Inspiration struck when I remembered I'd been wanting to scrap my personal best at bowling for ages now. In case the journalling is a bit hard to read, I bowled 240, 223 and 182 for the night! I actually bowled this last year back on 28 Feb 2011 so it's taken me a while to get around to putting it on paper. I also haven't bowled anywhere near this well since. :(

The photo I've used with this LO wasn't actually taken on the night I bowled the PB. It was taken by my brother during one of our catch-ups. I love the angle and the lighting. Below is the sketch Nadia created. The extra pieces of paper I have sticking out on the right hand side are the 'Star of the Week' certificate and score card I kept. They can slide in and hide behind the background paper.

    Thanks for your comment Lauren. The scalloped lace border on my page was a die cut from kaszazz. I am loving My Ezy Press die cut and Embossing machine. I waited aa long time for one! ;)
