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 #244 - "Amusing Anecdotes Inspirational Photo's"


This is the perfect start to our challenge theme for the month of July. I found this image on Pinterest and thought it was the perfect addition to this post!
Our challenge theme this month is
"Amusing Anecdotes Inspirational Photo's"

And our first inspirational photo is ...
So we want to see layouts based on "Faith" this week. Before we show off our DT layouts, please welcome our GDT for the month of July!
Introducing SANDI PRESLEY - June GDT
I am a transplanted Midwesterner living in the Deep South....if you can call Florida the South. I lived in Chicago 40 years, South Carolina 4 years and am in Florida now for good. I am the proud mom to 2 grown sons -- Matt and Adam -- and Grandma to 4 wonderful grandchildren...Jacob, Cole, Abby and lil' Isabelle Grace. Grandchildren are definitely the frosting on the cupcake of life! My family still lives in the Chicago area and I miss them everyday. I love to scrap, make cards and repurpose (or "upcycle") items I find on my weekly trips to the local thrift store. On a professional note I am in sales for the country's largest supplier of building and roofing materials at least until I retire in 5 more years. I adore my patient and loving husband .....he makes me laugh every day and keeps me young. We share our home with an ornery Quaker parrot named Max and 2 young cockatiels named Eko and Lola.We love to travel and work around the house.
