You & me . . . with Guest Designer & Blog Creator, Lynn!

  We have a very special special treat for you today . . . 
 
Please welcome guest designer,  Lynn Lefebvre:
 


Lynn created Challenge YOUrself in December of 2013.  
 
When asked how she came up with the idea for Challenge YOUrself,  she said the following:  "I got the concept for this type of scrapbooking challenge blog because I found that most people scrapped about everyone else and forgot to leave a little bit of themselves in their layouts. I thought about the idea of a challenge blog for a long time, and thanks to some encouragement from a good friend, I decided to give it a try."
 
Lucky for us, right?! 

Lynn lives in Canada and was intrigued by scrapbooking about 10+ years ago, when she saw "Making Memories" on the Shopping Channel.  She knew right then and there that "scrapbooking was something I had to have in my life!"  She loved scrapbooking and said "it was my therapy that kept me going for years."  
 
In December of 2015, Lynn decided that she needed to spend more time with her family and less time in front of a computer, so she stepped down. We were all very sad to see her go.  Lynn wants you all to know that she is very proud that Challenge YOUrself is still going strong and is celebrating it's 100th challenge!  
 
Lynn said that she has had a lot of changes in her life in the past 6 months and hasn't done much scrapbooking in that period of time.  But she dusted of her supplies and created this absolutely beautiful page just for us:
 

 
Thank you so much, Lynn, for founding Challenge YOUrself and helping us to celebrate it's 100th challenge.  
 
And a big thank you for entrusting Challenge YOUrself to us.  
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts! ❤
