To kick off our AUGUST challenges, we would like to introduce our GUEST DESIGNER  LYNN from SMALL TOWN SCRAPBOOKER  with her take on our challenge...

and a little about LYNN...

Hello Lasting Memories fans! My name is Lynn and I am so excited to be a guest designer here for the whole month! Yayyy!! I live in a small town in Northern Ontario Canada with my dear husband and two busy daughters. I've been scrapbooking for over 10 years now but only started blogging about it for the last two. My scrapbooking style varies a lot, depending on my mood and inspiration. I love incorporating mixed media on my layout and creating my own backgrounds. I'm looking forward to hanging around with you here at Lasting Memories!

Happy scrapping! Lynn xo

Your turn to come out and join the fun with us!! Thanks so much for stopping by and hope you find time to create with us this week!
