Memory Gifts

Many thanks to those of you who have already dropped in both layouts and albums to be donated to the victims of the Victorian bush fires. From visiting Sarah's blog the other day, 50 albums had arrived at her house from Aussie Scrap Source, so it is all coming together really well. Thanks also to many of you who are still working on your layouts, and those who have posted the info on their blogs and facebook sites to pass the info on for more people to become involved - BIG THANKS TO ALL!!!

Crop Dates

There are a couple of spots still available for the crop tonight from 6pm til 9pm and also for Saturday afternoon 1pm til 4pm. $10 for the 3 hours and hot drinks, orange juice and nibbles will be provided. Phone 87235774 to reserve your place.

MEMORY GIFT

An amazing person by the name of Sarah Gladman, felt hopeless in a lot of ways to be able to help those involved with the Victorian Bushfires, so she came up with the idea of creating albums and layouts to give to those who have lost everything so they need only ask family and friends for copies of photos to have an album. I not only think Sarah is a brilliant person for thinking up the idea but she has made it a reality. Many companies have donated albums so she is calling on people who scrapbook to make up layouts that are 97% complete so the victims need only add a pic and some journaling.

I have put my hand up as a drop off point for these layouts and if you are interested in helping out they need to be dropped off at the shop no later than the 15th of March as they have to be posted to Sarah to be received by the 20th March. To find out more information and a sample of what a layout could look like visit Sarah's blog

The completed albums will be given to the Principal's of the 4 schools lost as they know exactly who they need to be given to. If you can also help by adding something to your blog so we can let as many people know as possible to get as much support as we can. After having Ash Wednesday leave it's scars on many locals, I think many of us understand how such devastation can affect people and leave them with nothing.

Thanks very much for your help and support in this brilliant idea that is now a reality!
