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!

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!!

Hello, everyone! Welcome back to Lasting Memories - we are so happy that you have stopped by today. Before we get to this week's post, I want to say a big "Thank You" to Karen B for being our guest designer this month. Karen always shares such beautiful inspiration with us and it was a pleasure having her as our guest in September.

Now, on to this week's challenge. Our theme for September has been "Patterned Paper Play" and each week we have given you a pattern that you must use on your layout. How much of each pattern you use is up to you - use a little of use a lot! This week we are going to play all of the patterns out there!

 LM #567 - Use (at least) 5 different patterned papers on your layout. 

We've spent all month playing with patterns - now go crazy and mix and match your patterned papers! Use any patterns you like - just make sure you use 5 different patterned papers on your layout.

LM #566 - Patterned Paper Play - Striped Paper

 Hello, hello! Welcome back to Lasting Memories! I hope you are having a good weekend! The first day of fall, here in the Northern Hemisphere, is Wednesday, September 22 - is it starting to feel like fall where you are - or is it still feeling like summer? Here in the middle of the US, we are still having some hot temperatures but by Wednesday we are supposed to be seeing highs in the 70s and lows in the low 50s. That will be feeling a little more like fall!

It's time for our 4th challenge of the month. As a reminder - our theme for September is 'Patterned Paper Play' and each week we give you a  pattern that you must use on your layout. How much of each pattern you use is up to you - use a little or use a lot! Here's this week's challenge:

LM #566 - Stripes

Use striped patterned paper on your layout.
