{Helping a worthy cause

and you could win some great prizes too

The Scrapyard, Print Blocks and Scrapbooking Memories are holding a competition this month to help the Bonnie Babes foundation, this organisation does countless work for those parents who have lost a child, through support networks etc.
The competition is to scrap a heartfelt memory box for those parents who have lost a child so they can keep their treasured memories safe for years to come.
To enter this competition and be in the running for a new Cricut and other goodies (all donated by the sctrapyard and print blocks) all you need to do is scrap a box (approx shoe size and send it to The Scrapyard, these boxes will not be returned as they will be used by the foundation to give to those families who have suffered the loss of a child, through miscarrriage, SIDS etc.
