We went to this event called Glow in St. Louis Tuesday night at the Missouri Botanical Gardens and it was fantastic. I had seen pictures of it from other years so I was excited to be going. Of course I was also thinking about the great scrapbook pages I could make from the pictures I took. I knew I wanted to get a Picture of myself to use for the Challenge at "CHALLENGE YOURSELF" so this is the picture I decided to use for the challenge and then I wanted to use for the challenge. The sketch challenge at "SCRAP OUR STASH" was perfect for it. I gave me a chance to make a photo into a circle and scrap it that way.
"CHALLENGE YOURSELF" I did the journaling in my own handwriting
"SCRAP OUR STASH" I did faux stitching around the two black word circles.
