Lasting Memories Guest Designer

Hello my scrappy friends!  Lasting Memories blog has chosen it's December Guest Designer...me!  This is my first time being a guest designer for a current blog and I'm happy to say that although it was "luck of draw" that I won, it's a pretty big honor.  I love the challenges that they are hosting this month!  Since I've been remiss in my blogging duties, I'll post the first two of this month's challenges right here.


We are taking on a  "BEST OF 2016" theme to end our year with a bang.  We have picked the most popular challenges and we are duplicating them in hopes you will love to challenge yourself again with these great themes!! So to start us off with our first challenge for December...

LM 321 - GLITTER and GLAM This was based off of a challenge we did to honor THE OSCARS.  So show us your sparkling and glittering layouts!!  

This is my baby girl at almost 6 months old, just shy by a few days.  She is now 12!  I used some scraps of patterned paper, a decorative border punch and two different stencils from STAMPlorations. 

  LM - 322 - Use One Photo

This challenge is from our "All About The Photos" theme from May. Just use one photo on your layout this week.

 This LO is again of my baby girl, she's just not such a baby any longer!  The arrow is pointing to her in this after school basketball team photo from this past spring when she was in sixth grade.  Again, I used many scraps of paper for the circles, banners and basketball.  

Hope you can submit your LO at Lasting Memories blog...you have until December 30th!

I'm also entering this One Photo LO into another challenge at....Stuck?! Sketches.    This is the sketch:

Rather than a star for the background, I used banners that adorn the gym walls and circles on the side to represent the basketball.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great day!
