You Are Amazing

 At Lasting Memories this month our theme is "Get Your Game On!"

Your Challenge #562 is Sequence. This week we are giving you 3 options for your challenge:

Option #1 - create a layout with a grid background - 

Option #2 - The object of the game Sequence is to create horizontal, vertical, or diagonal rows of five chips - line your photos up all in a row - they can be lined up vertically, horizontally, or even on the diagonal if you would like.

Option #3 - show us a sequence of events in your photos - or now and then photos, or before and after photos. 

Be sure to let us know which option you went with this week - Option 1, 2, or 3

I chose Option #3 with now and then photos.
