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 #365 - Around The House - Children's Artwork Or Journaling - Or Inspired By A Children's Book

Happy Sunday scrappy friends! I hope that you are having a great weekend!

We are back with our second challenge of the month and I can't wait to see what you create for it! In keeping with our - Around the House - theme, this week our challenge is:

LM #365 - Use children's artwork or journaling or be inspired by a children's book.

We have another guest designer joining us for the next couple of challenges! Please help us welcome June!


 Hello! My name is June Swart, but I often go by Super Stick Chick in “blogland.”  It is so exciting being a guest designer here at Lasting Memories and working with such a talented team. I am a stay-at-home mom who lives in Minnesota and is married to her sweetheart, Jeff. 

We have two wonderful teen/adult sons and one feisty cat. I love to do all sorts of paper crafting, gardening, and aerobics. I started scrapbooking as a teenager in the 1970s. Back then we scrapped mostly memorabilia – no photos. Things have really changed since then, with photos, pattern papers, and embellishments being added. I love that scrapbooking has become an art form. I play with all sorts of styles from CAS to mixed media. I also make lots of cards. If you would like to check out more of my work, please visit my blog (http://superstickchick.blogspot.com/). I’d love it if you would leave a comment if you see something in particular that you like.

I hope you feel inspired and have some fun joining us here at Lasting Memories. I can’t wait to see your creations!
     -June

Here is a look at what the design team has created - starting with our guest designers:



I´ve been inspired by a children´s book. Astrid Lindgren was a famous Swedish author and she wrote many wonderful books. One of them was "Barnen I Bullerbyn". I´ve looked for a translation of that title and only found "The children of Noisy village". But I don´t know if that is the correct translation. When I first saw this photo I directly thought about that book. 


This baby shower & layout were inspired by the book 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by Eric Carle

I used a piece of my Grandson's artwork as the base for my layout.



I added the paper that our grandson was writing on to the layout
 


We are offering up a prize this month. Link up your layouts by October 28th for your chance to win this:


Thanks so much for stopping by and hope you find time to create with us this week!
