Our "Scrappy" Friends!

Welcome!

Hello fellow scrapbookers!!! Welcome to "Lasting Memories" which is all about LAYOUTS!! Yes, JUST layouts! There are no cards allowed here. We have weekly themed challenges, but you have the whole month to get in on the fun! Our challenges begin each Sunday at 8am EST and all 4 challenges will end on the date listed on the sidebar at 6pm EST. At month's end, we will choose a GDT to join us for a month! Only one entry per challenge, and no back-linking is allowed since we would love to know that we "challenged" you. We look forward to challenging you and helping you get your pages completed!

Specialized Hosting Sites

A lot of crafters use specialized hosting sites that not all of us have access to. We just wanted to let you know that if we don't comment, it's because we don't have access - but we see your work here at LM and appreciate your taking the time to link up and show off your style!!

A lot of my DT members are also having giveaways on their blogs as well!! Yep, it's a Scavenger Hunt my friends! You're looking for elements AND sponsor/DT giveaways! How fun, right?? Once you've done the hop and entered your LO, be sure to leave us a comment to let us know you're all done!! You'll start here and end here .. have fun!! Winners will be announced next Sunday with our next challenge. In honour of my birthday, I'll be giving away the Grand Prize. I also have TWO surprise packages all ready to go to 2 lucky "Features" this week!! 

Before we kick off our hop, I would like to send a heartfelt thank you to our sponsors this week and also to my DT who have just been amazing and very patient with me the last couple weeks in getting everything ready!! You guys are ALL amazing!! So, lets get this party started, shall we??
