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!!

    OUCH!

    A little story behind this cute layout. My nephew's 7th birthday is on the 18th, but because they'll be away on holidays, they had his b-day party with his friends yesterday and then family today. Well, my sister called last night and told me Hayden had broke his arm during his party. Apparently he was quite upset about messing up his birthday party and didn't even get to open presents. My brother in law took him to the hospital where they had to put him under just a little to reset the arm and put a temp cast on there. He goes tmw for a proper cast. They left the house about 3:30 and didn't get back till about 9:30. Poor little guy! He fell off the slide and landed on his arm. So, I got to work on a little something for him and came up with this layout. My sister can add the pic and the journalling. I'll give it to him today when we see him.

    Don't forget, you only have one more week to enter our current challenge and have a chance to win some awesome candy! Come on out and play!
