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!!

LM #419- Techniques - Paper Tearing

Hello, everyone! Welcome back - we are so happy that you stopped by today! We hope that you are enjoying your weekend.

It's time for a new theme and a new set of challenges here at Lasting Memories. Before we get to all of that we would like to welcome our November Guest Designer, Cheryl!


Hi everyone! My name is Cheryl Even and I’m very excited to be a guest designer for Lasting Memories this month.  A Southern California native, I have been married to my college sweetheart Greg for 26 years and am a SAHM to four wonderful kids, Adrian, Elliot, Brianna, and Oliver Angel. I’ve been scrapbooking ever since I went to my first scrapbooking party and decided to try it for a month to see if I liked it. 20 years later, I think you could say I stuck with it and loved it! Although my life is really busy with raising four children, leading a women’s Bible study, and singing on the worship team at church, I usually find time every week to sneak away to my craft room to scrapbook, and then I post my completed work on my blog,https://evenmorescrapping.blogspot.com/.

Welcome, Cheryl! We are so excited to have you as our guest designer this month!

Now, on to the challenge. DT Deanna is our hostess this month and she has created some super fun challenges to work with. Our theme for November is - Techniques - that special little thing that puts the finishing touch on your layout. This week's challenge is:

#419 - Techniques - Paper Tearing -  I love adding a bit of texture to my work by using torn paper. This week our challenge is rather simple and easy to use - "2 or More Torn Papers". 
{You may, of course, add anything else.}

Here is a look at the fabulous layouts from the design team, starting with our November Guest Designer, Cheryl:
