Throwback Thursday....on my Blog! and a Link up Party!

Hello Dear Stamper Friends;

Do you Know what is Throwback Thursdays or #tbt?

well ...
It is a social media trend done specially on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr..
Essentially it is  to bring back a memory, share an old photograph via these social networks on Thursdays...but most notably on Instagram (which is the photo sharing app done with your cell phone).

The term has being around since the early 2003- 2006 but it was until 2011 when "Instagram" introduced the hashtags, posting old photos of oneself on thursdays with the hashtgag #throwbackthursday or #tbt that this trend became so popular.

In 2012, the term "Throwback Thursday" was 1st defined on the urban dictionary as :
[when you put a picture from a "while" ago on your social media sites....]

Initially the theme was to share old photos of oneself but nowadays, the "#throwbackthursday" theme can pertain to basically anything that happened on the past.
Not only people are participating in this unique trend, but also companies!
Well known brands such as "BMW, Land Rover, People Magazine, Pepsi, Southwest Airlines, Wendy's" etc...just to name a few, are sharing on their social media old photos of their "vintage" makes, brands, events...on Thursdays!
And Experts say that this trend became so popular because People love the feeling of nostalgia!

All this being said...

I decided to make my "own"...

Welcome to my very 1st 

#Throwback Thursday

 right here on my blog!

Do you remember this post?

I posted this photo on august 2012,  "Dies to Die for ...class!"
I only got 2 comments that day,  and I wonder how many of you now knew of my blog, back then?
I bet not many....

Can you see the changes that I made in my photo shooting?
I used  my photo tent, now I use another setting by a window with day light...I think it looks different, but I kept the same arrangement on the back :) Ah memories, sweet memories....

Ok my friends, I hope you liked this post

What theme?

actually the theme will be very often "anything goes", 

(unless if noted otherwise)

it just need to be something that you have posted on your blog 

 preferably, a craft related project, 

since this is what our blogs are about!

What will we (ALL) get?

 happiness, connections and exposure!

You will be participating

just for the pleasure of playing along,

bringing back "past" achievements

reviving "forgotten" posts from your blog

fulfilling the pleasure to share again and again with others 

and joining this new trend (but with your blogs)!

On top of this...

How long will this last? 

The party is open all day long on Thursday 

from 12:00 am (PST) til Friday 1:00 am (PST)

You can participate as many Thursdays as you like

hopefully every other Thursday...

as for me... 

I do not have a time frame as how long I will be doing it

I will do it, I guess,  until this phase will fade! :)...

for now, the plan is to do it every other Thursday, 
(2 Thursdays on a month)...
until I can and I want!

How that sounds?

to me it is a pretty appealing idea! 
hopefully for you it is too! 

 I would love to see you next week sharing as well your own "Throwback Thursday" at your blog!
