Sun-N-Fun - Lasting Memories Layout Challenges 300th Challenge Blog Hop

Welcome to the Lasting Memories Layout Challenges 300th Challenge Blog Hop. Several of our design team members are playing along and offering up some blog candy, so be sure to stop by each of their blogs for great inspiration and amazing prizes.

Our theme for July is "Childhood Games" . Each week you will make your layout based on the photo/game provided in the inspiration photo. Our first challenge is "Marbles". Here is your inspiration photo...


Now on with the blog hop, you should have arrived here from Tina's blog, but if not, the entire list is at the end of this post.

Here is my layout....


I have a new camera and it has an AWESOME setting that was discovered by someone other than me (Thanks Taylor) and it takes 5 pictures at once and produces the photos with different filters, angles and colouring....it is really cool. So with one click these two photos were taken. It is hard to see in this picture but the closer up shot, you can actually see the water drops on their faces!

I was inspired by the photo with the shape of the marbles and the bright, vibrant colours.

Here are some closeups....


I thought this Thicker's Sun-Kissed title was appropriate as the photo is our Son having fun in the sun with his Son!!!


I cut out several circle pieces in various sizes with punches and layered around the bottom of the photos. Some I used pop dots to add some dimension. The happy face game was in a kit from Boy's Rule Scrapbook kits...it went with the fun theme of this layout!


I added some paint splatters and gems to complete the pool/splash fun of the layout.

Product List: Jillibean Soup goodies - Cool As A Cucumber Soup, Soup Staples - Dark Brown Sugar, Co-ordinating Minestrone paper and lots of other Jillbean paper scraps in the circles. American Crafts/Thickers - Sun-Kissed and Queen & Co. Bubbles.

Now for the fun part for our celebration of Lasting Memories 300th Challenge. I am offering a prize to one lucky person who leaves a comment on my post here. I will draw the winner on July 11, so that gives you lots of time to leave me some love.

And on with the rest of the Blog Hop....be sure to stop by each of the Designers and leave them some love as well...After all...Love is all we need!!!

Thanks so much for hopping along with us, here is the rest of the list....








Have a wonderful Sunday! Stay Crafty!!!
