Welcome to day 7 of celebrating Oscraps! I hope you have had a great week so far.

My name is LauraD and I will be your host for today's challenge. Do you remember what life was like 19 years ago, in the year 2006? I know my world has changed so much since then. For this challenge, we are going to go back in time to 2006. Here are some inspirations to help you:
1. Create a "then and now" layout showing what life was like or what you were like then and now
2. Tell a story about something that happened on 2006
3. Scrapbook a photo taken in 2006
4. Create a layout about a news event that happened in 2006

Here is my layout I selected prompt number 1, a "then and now" layout. I used "Grapes of Memories" by et designs.

thank you for the wonderful Challenge!
In May 2009, I had a wonderful vacation in Saxon Switzerland – I especially remember those magnificent rapeseed fields, so I now use two rules:
2. Tell a story about something that happened in 2006
3. Scrapbook a photo taken in 2006

 
2006 was the year we first planned and accomplished a multi-day bike tour. It's fun to remember.
 
Here ya go. I think this its #1 and #4. Interesting stuff.

 
DAY SEVEN – 19 YEARS AGO – Thank you LauraD for hosting the challenge, I went with Option 3 – Photos from 2006 – everything is from Through the Window – Pavlinka Designs – Photos – mine – Fonts – Milestone – Agency
 
I chose to scrap a photo from our biggest family event of 2006 - our son's wedding. I almost paired it with a current photo, but decided it was a great stand-alone photo. (Yes, they are still married!)
 
I was lucky enough to find a picture in my stash from 2006:dancingbfly:. Not a football fan, so I didn't know when the World Cup would be played, and we were told about it when we landed at the airport, I remember I had made a comment like "so good that the World Cup is being played in Germany, so there won't be people in the streets celebrating," because everyone assumed that France would win, and a few days later a lot of people were in the streets upset and protesting because they lost, and Italy won on penalties, anyway I enjoyed the time we spent in France that year.
Now that I write this I think, what kind of logic did I have in 2006 :floorlaugh:, because it was obvious that they would celebrate or protest in France, I don't think all the football fans were in Germany :coffeescreen:
