Trip Through Time

The layouts I've created with this month's Scraptastic kit are a real trip through time! They span several years. The page I'm sharing today features a snapshot from Chuck E Cheese, back when my middle son was about 5 or 6 years old. It was one of those pictures that pops out of the machine, printed on flimsy paper, with that accidentally distressed and already faded look. After years of sitting in a box, it was even worse. I rescued this one, scanning, adjusting and reprinting it for use on my page.


I even had saved one of our old tickets and tucked it alongside the photo.


There we are, cheesy grins and all! I can't believe that little boy is now a junior in college!

I have a few of these but my sons favorite thing is the new sketch photo machine. A token gets a photo in a booth and then it sketches you. I have a ton of these from the past few years and I'm totally dying to scrap some of them because they are some of my favorite photos of us together. Sadly, I don't get out from behind the camera enough except at CEC!
