Cheaper Than Therapy Challenge 20- My Creation

Well after an exhausting week and another busy weekend, I finally finished this challenge a day late! I went back to 1998, and have scrapbooked some photos of my gorgeous sister and her friends dancing at an eisteddfod at Bankstown RSL. I used retired Designer Series Paper "Newsprint", and the colour I added to Basic Black and Very Vanilla was Real Red. I also used a retired stamp set "In The Stars" which is one I just can't seem to part with; and a retired punch that makes a paper binding pattern which I like to use to create film strips. I added the film strip to the right hand edge of the layout, allowing me to fit another 8 smaller photos in of the actual dance performance. It made me remember how much I used to enjoy seeing my little sister dance!
Here are some close ups of the photos and film strip:


Have a good week! Don't forget to have a look at Adele's and Maree's blogs too!
