USE YOUR STUFF - Challenge #221 - A Sketch

Our fellow Design Team member, Tina, found this older PageMaps sketch for us to use.  At first I was very intimidated by it and it took me forever to figure out what photo(s) to use.  BUT two days before the deadline, I managed to get 'er done!

This is hubby and I at my parent's 60th wedding anniversary party back in 2012.

I used items from a ScrapShotz Kit.
