Digi-Dare and a Worthy Cause

It's a Digi-Dare friday!! #199 (Wow oh wow that's a lot of dares!!)

This week was all about how you help other people. I have to say, that at first I was so not looking forward to this one. It's not that we don't do things to help other, you know we give money to groups, cloths to Goodwill, help out at school, and give to church. But none of these things really inspired me to scrap. I mean it doesn't ever feel like we do enough!

But there is one thing we do, and we do it as a family, that will hopefully one day make a difference.

And before I knew it, I had a layout I love. Okay well it did take a little while to put all those elements on, lol. But it is always fun to dig through my Lilypad stash.

However, one of the things that really rocked the most about this challenge was that ALL of the layouts are just incredible. What an amazing creative bunch!!

So go check it out. Hope you are inspired to play along, cause you won't be sorry!!

And speaking of giving...
A new collab has been released to day to help a sweet digi-friend. Mary lost her 17 year old daughter last week. I can not imagine the pain she and her family are experiencing right now. This is never the way it is suppose to be and certainly one of the most painful experiences a parent can go through. This is certainly not a time to worry about hospital bills and funeral bills. So some fantastic designers have come together to create a stunning kit in Charlie's honor.
It is well worth the money for the kit, but more importantly it is well worth the money to support a family in need during this very trying time. It is being carried in two stores: Mscraps and Scrap Orchard and 100% of the proceeds go to benefit the Gonzalez family. (In case you are wondering, I am not affiliated at all with this project or stores. I am just a friend and yes I bought it.)
