July 4 2017 Lasting Memories Scrapbook Challenge

Good Morning and welcome to a new challenge week over at Lasting Memories. Our theme for July is - Summer Adventures - and for this week's challenge, Natalie is challenging us to scrap our 4th Of July adventures!

LM #352 - Scrap that 4th of July adventure!

We want you to show us your 4th of July adventure! If you didn't have an adventurous American holiday or are not American, show some red, white, and blue. or show some sparkle in your layout.

This is just a bit of this 4th of July:

I got to use a fun project life card that I found online a long time ago on my layout, I try to use this same card for a facebook post each year. I make sure to get a photo of the flag and a photo of myself in front of the flag. This year Buddy found some shade under the flag so a nice photo op for his picture.
I used the current sketch from Let's Get Sketchy for my layout inspiration:

 from their mood board I used the flag part of the board for my inspiration for this layout.

 This is my journaling for the layout, handwritten which is a normal for me on a layout made for an easy challenge entry over at Challenge YOUrself. for challenge #43.

 Had fun adding some twine to the layout, the number for the year and the red, white and blue matches the Tic Tac Toe challenge using the top row over at Scrap Our Stash challenge blog

Our Buddy enjoying a bit of the shade under the flag. Love using the red, white, blue ribbon on the layout and the little cluster as in the sketch. I've got a few more photos from the 4th to scrap yet this month.
Thanks for stopping by today and I look forward to seeing your layout to this fun challenge linked up over at Lasting Memories Scrapbook challenge.
