OUAS 1st july challenge.. whatever happened to this little girl?

i was somewhere and i heard the words "whatever happened to that little girl" and the person was talking about themselves.. and i thought about myself.. whatever happened to me?so the july 1st challenge at http://onceuponasketchblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/july-1st-challenge-meet-our-july-guest.html was to use this sketch
and to say who is in the photo and 2 sentences about them..
so i thought i would take this photo of myself when i was about 7 and do a layout.. and this is what i came up with.. i found an old range of Kaiser papers called peachy keen.. and did some fussy cutting and layers and i used my new tim holtz distresser on the edges.. 




and a close up of the layers..
thanks for coming by.. and do you ever wonder what happened to you in the busyiness of life...??
