As always we have a guest designer joining us. Please help us welcome Lynette Jacobs to our September 15th challenge!!

I will let Lynette tell you a bit about herself....

"I am Lynette Jacobs and I live in Port Elizabeth on the East Coast of South Africa. I have been married to my soul mate and best friend for the past 37 years and we have three children and six grandchildren. We started a Mission 18 years ago that is focused on the homeless and the addicted. At this point in time we are providing shelter and all other needs to more than 200 people and we have 450 people living at the Mission. The work we do is heartbreaking and emotionally draining. I started scrapbooking in 2004 and it has become my therapy and my way of recharging my batteries. My children and grandchildren provide me with endless photo opportunities and that gives me all the inspiration that I need.
Warm wishes
Lynette"

Here is Lynette's layout based on our sketch.

Thank you for sharing your, what I can imagine is very limited, time with us Lynette, I love your page!

We are only showcasing half of our Design Team's layouts with you at this time, as we have another surprise a little later in the month, for you!

Sponsor Feature | Clique Kits

Hello there!

As you know, we are celebrating with a month long Anniversary Bash, this month!  Including  a joint hop with our sponsor Clique Kits, which we posted about yesterday, you can read about it or play along here.

In case you missed the news, we are fortunate to be able to offer extra prizes for both of our challenges this month! As we mentioned Clique Kits is offering a prize for our hoppers specifically so be sure to hop to all of the links that follow and leave some love along the way, one winner will be chosen from the commenters to receive a September Clique Kits kit! Half of our team and some of the DT from Clique Kits are supplying gorgeous inspiration for you, as you hop!

Thank you to Clique Kits for sending our team members a September "Moon Child" kit to play with!

Crafters on the Memory Works forum observing losses of numerous pillars of the scrapbooking world both online and in brick and mortar, led us to believe that other scrapbookers would welcome a chance to continue to pursue their hobby if there was a way to acquire a variety of new, trendy products conveniently and economically! As a result of much brainstorming (still ongoing) with a focus on less consumerism, more sharing, supporting others in creative small businesses, and preserving not just our memories but our planet for the next generation, Clique Kits was born! Currently, Clique Kits spans from Europe to Australia and across the U.S.A. and has grown into this business from "our basements". The name Clique Kits is a play on the word "Click" for the sound our cameras make recording memories, and is also a tongue in cheek metaphor for our ever-widening circle of friends who are anything BUT clique-y. This outlet lets us share our passion for memory keeping through our kits, blog, and social media community and is always friendly and supportive. Together with our design team, we strive to inspire our members and friends with tutorials, creative inspiration, articles, videos, inspirational blog shares, and much more! In our first year we have quadrupled our membership and sold hundreds of limited edition kits in addition to our often unique school store products sourced from the indie, handmade, and fair trade markets. We now have over 4000 Facebook fans and our interactive community online continues growing. Read more about our mission and philosophy here. You can also read more about the current Clique Kits Leadership Team and we welcome you to contact us with questions or feedback at any time!

Today we are featuring some of the Clique Kits DT and their take on our sketch! Here is a reminder of our sketch ...
