THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR PLAYING ALONG! I JUST LOVE, LOVE, LOVED LOOKING AT ALL OF THE FLASHBACKS! THEY ARE ALL FANTASTIC! THE RANDOMLY DRAWN WINNER OF THE 1,000 POINTS IS . . . LOREEN C.!
Another one of my fairly regular things here on the MB is to post Flashback Friday pics. I just love looking back and remembering "when". My previous hint mentioned you needed a picture of yourself, at least 20 years old. I hope you have it ready, because I want you to scrap it! You may scrap it anyway you like, any colors you like, any theme you like, any . . . anything! I just want to get a peek at some of you from back "then" -- whenever that might be.
Entries will be due by May 10, 2019 at 11:59 PM. This is open to layouts only. One entry per person. No combining with any other board challenges.
Please post your layout in the iNSD 2019 Celebration Gallery and here in this thread. I will randomly choose one participant who will win 1000 points! Remember, if you are unable to track down a photo of yourself, I will allow a flashback of anyone or anything -- as long as it was taken at least 20 years ago.
Here is my example. Look . . . it's Baby Flasher. These pics are exactly 50 years old! I wish I could figure out how to enlarge, because the picture on the right of me looking into the basket . . . my tongue is literally hanging out of my mouth as I stare at that chocolate bunny! As you can see by the bottom pic, I really enjoyed that bunny! Enjoy my flashback!

I had plans to be, but my band director had other plans. He turned our last majorette into a field commander in 1984. I ended up being the piccolo section leader. Oh well! lol

Great layout! I think I figured it out-- initially I thought you meant we had to be at least 20 years old in the picture--but you mean it has to be at least 20 years old-- so we can be any age--just at least two decades ago...

Me and my little sister sometime around the late 50's/early 60's. We are all dressed up for Easter.
**ETA - I got a better pic now that it is daylight and sunny out. Looks closer to the real thing lol.**

I was so enamored by the hats I didn't even notice the gloves! Why don't we do that anymore?

All of the submissions and the sample layout are wonderful! It's so fun to see the old photos and how the layout is designed by each Cherry. Hope I get some scrappy time in the next couple evenings so I can scrap some early photos of myself. I love Little Flasher and thanks for the Flashback Challenge.
