We have a celebration going on this week!! It's Lasting Memories 2nd Blogaversary!!! To celebrate, some of us are showcasing our layouts with a mini blog hop. Along the way there could be candy, so be sure to read each post! You may be asked to leave a comment, you may be asked to do something a little different, you just never know! Our challenge is an easy one .. 
an inspirational photo/color challenge (isn't this gorgeous?) 


So lets get this party started!! If you're arrived here from Michele you're on the right track! If you're just popping by, be sure to start at Karen's Blog so you don't miss a thing!!! Here's my layout for this weeks challenge:
 
The boys and I went to Gatlinburg, TN for our vacation this year. One of our favorite attractions was Ripley's Aquarium-worth the trip all by itself!  And since Scott is studying to be an underwater welder we just had to have a picture of him in Scuba gear!

And a closeup of the ocean scene:
It's hard to see in the picture but the mulberry "sand" is sprayed with adhesive and covered with Flower Soft Hint of Green Glitter.
 
 
Supplies:

Cardstock: Core'dinations Brilliant Blue All in the Family, Scraps

And of course I have blog candy!  To win a $10 gift certificate to A2Z Scrapbooking leave a comment please:) I'll use random organizer to choose a winner on Tuesday:)
