Welcome to the Pre-Party Avatar Challenge!!!!
Oscraps is celebrating its 19th birthday - so let's get this party started by creating a special Avatar for the big partay!
I'm Susie and I'll be your host for this challenge.
I was thinking a lot about the theme for our challenge, and finally it hit me: Let's see YOU at 19!!! I want you to make your avatar with a picture of you at 19 years of age (or as close as you can find), and either 1. A birthday Theme, or 2. Happy Birthday OScraps somewhere on it.
If you don't have a picture of yourself, that's okay too - just use a sketch or element of one of our wonderful designers here instead of the picture of yourself!
Some ideas about 2006, when Oscraps was born! (borrowed from Google)
Popular Culture:
"Borat": This mockumentary was released in 2006 and became a cultural phenomenon.
MySpace and Beebo: These social networking sites were among the most popular, indicating the growing trend of online communities.
Fashion:
Bootcut jeans: These jeans with a slightly wider leg were a common item in the 2000s.
Wingtips: This style of shoe was considered a hot trend.
Black nail polish: This was a popular choice for nail color.
Box Office Success:
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest: Reached the top spot in worldwide box office revenue.
The Da Vinci Code: Another major success, also ranking high in global box office earnings.
Other top-grossing films: Included Ice Age 2: The Meltdown, Casino Royale,
Night at the Museum, Cars, and X-Men: The Last Stand.
Here is mine!

It was taken at Kmart, as well....do any of y'all remember getting portraits taken at Kmart?? I grew up with Sears and Kmart when it comes to portraits being taken. I need to clean off the glass in the frame tomorrow and then will take a pic of it and crop Tim out, because he is not at Oscraps...
