WINNER ~ ANOTHER FREAKING SCAPPY CHALLENGE

Good Morning, on another brisk winters day.
A new month means a new challenge at AFSC the challenge is ......

Have you ever been recognized for something? Scholarship? Award? Employee of the quarter? Fifth place winner??? Published? Scrap or art journal about it. 

Hence my title

Winner

Now I did have to go back into the archives for this one, although I did win a squash comp once also :)

I have used a StudioFourteen40 flair, Love them. Lots of washi and some cool big clear buttons from a win over at Pixels and Papers.

As my journalling says my Aunt is presenting me with the winners trophy of the Annual Borenore Tournament in honour of my Uncle.  Mum is on the left and was the runner up. It must have been my lucky day to beat my Mum as she was a fierce tennis player.

The good thing about scrapping photo's as they bring back soooo many memories. I probably wouldn't have scrapped this photo if it wasn't for the challenge, so thank you for the challenge AFSC and bringing back good memories.

We lived just up the road from the Tennis courts in the village I grew up and Sunday was the day the community got together to play tennis and socialize. Of course the afternoon teas were a big part of the day , with lots of lovely country cooking. My aunt in the photo used to bring a sponge cake filled with cream and passion fruit icing , everyone use to bestow praise upon her on how good it was. Funny thing no one knew except those very close to her, she actually purchased  a plain sponge cake filled it with cream and iced it. We that knew used to get a big smile out of it.

It reminded me of the Working Bees at the Tennis courts as well and How we used to practise hitting the ball up against the Railway line shed door and run up and down the railway ramp.

Anyway if you are still with me thank you for calling by and I hope you join us in the challenge.

Love and Peace
