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!!

Introducing Our July Guest Designer

Hello, everyone, and thanks for stopping by Lasting Memories Challenge Blog. It's Independence Day here in the United States, and I'm so excited to be celebrating our nation's 250th anniversary! Whether you are taking pictures today to scrap later, or are working on a vacation album or scrapping Christmas photos or even plugging away at your kid's school album, we are glad you decided to check out our blog and hope our challenges inspire your crafting.

We have a whole bunch of new challenges for July starting tomorrow, but today we want to introduce you to our July Guest Designer. We know you are going to enjoy seeing her layouts this month! Please help us welcome Deanne.

July GDT Deanne
My name is Deanne Clarke-Saunders. My hubby and I live in Paradise,
Newfoundland, Canada. I was an elementary teacher for 23 years but retired early. I am now an Early Childhood Educator (couldn’t stay away from the kiddies!!). I have always enjoyed playing with paper, scissors, glue, and ESPECIALLY crayons and pencil crayons, ever since I’ve been a small child. I just couldn’t stop playing, so I continued by scrapbooking and card-making! I love it!!! My hubby calls me a paper hoarder. He just MAY be right, but I’d never tell him that!!! A man doesn’t need to know he’s  right!!! haha!

Deanne's artwork can be found at her blog A Little Bit O' Paper, where you can also see links to the various challenge blogs she hosts.

Thanks for stopping by today. This is the final day to play along with our June challenges, so please check them out and go get creative! Then be sure to come back tomorrow to discover our July theme.
