Introducing July's Guest Designers!!

Hello, hello! Happy Saturday to you!

Today we are introducing our guest designers for July. We have four super talented scrappers us this month and I know the inspiration is going to be plentiful! Please help us welcome Haven, Jill, Jessica, and Jamie. All four of these ladies are such amazing scrappers and I can't wait to share their beautiful work with you every week in July. Let's get to know them a little better.

July GDT - Haven

I'm super excited to announce that I'll be a guest designer for Lasting Memories for the month of July.  It seems like I'm making a guest appearance about once a year (the last time was June 2021) and am so glad to be back.  I love playing along with the challenges and getting inspiration from the design team.  I think their challenges are some of the best but I might be biased as I'm a former DT ( 2013-2017).    This year I'm on a DT over at Use Your Stuff and can be found on my blog on a semi-regular basis.

July GDT - Jill

I live in Somerset, Pennsylvania with my husband, our 23-year-old daughter, 14-year-old son, and my little grandson. I am a high school teacher and use scrapbooking as my creative outlet. I have been crafting since I was a child, but in 2003 I fell in love with scrapbooking, and it has become my favorite hobby. Of course, my family photos are always my inspiration for my layouts. In 2010 I started a blog and love participating in all the fun challenges! Thank you Lasting Memories for having me as Guest Designer this month. It is a big honor for me!

May GDT - Jessica

Hello, my name is Jessica Shurts. I live in Minnesota with my husband and 5 kids ages 15, 13, 11, 9, and 4. I started scrapbooking when I was in high school. Between cooking meals and driving my kids to all their activities (lots of soccer and dance), I love using fun papers and products to tell my family's stories and using my Cricut to make unique embellishments and titles for my layouts. I find challenges to be a great jumping off point to get my creativity flowing. I am excited to be joining Lasting Memories for their fun challenges this month!

July GDT - Jamie

Hello, my name is Jamie. I am a stay at home mom of two from Coeur d'Alene, ID. I have 2 children, a girl and a boy. We are fortunate to be able to homeschool and this year we began the new adventure of high school.  I am blessed to have been married to my soul mate for over 17 years now and look forward to countless more years and memories. My favorite thing to do is to scrapbook and I have been scrapping for over 22 years.I enjoy learning new techniques and discovering that I can never push myself too far. When it comes to scrapbooking I firmly believe that there are no rules except the ones you break!  

You can see more of Jamie's beautiful work on her blog - Scrap Queen.

Be sure to check out each of our guest designer's blogs - they are full of inspiration.

We will be back tomorrow with a new theme and the first challenge for July. I will get the May and June Top 3, GDT Picks, and Winners posted after the fourth of July holiday.

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today! Have a great day!
