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!!

These 3 girl's will be joining us for next weeks challenge and will be inspiring you through till the end of April. Welcome girls!!

Now onto this week's challenge...STAMP AWAY! One thing that I personally find challenging is using stamps on my layouts. I tend to save those for cards. So, we'd love to see your favorite stamps on your layouts! Whether you choose to stamp your background or add a stamp and pop it off somewhere, it's all about the stamping! Here's some inspiration to get you started. (remember to click the photo to enlarge it and click DT names to visit their blogs!) Don't forget, challenge ends on Saturday, January 29 @ 9pm EST! New challenge and TOP 3 winners announced on Sunday at 8am!
