Lifes Like That

I just love when other bloggers post that they have a new contest that they are running. Especially when I discover that it is some type of crafting contest. That is why I was so happy to see that Christine is holding an awesome scrapbooking contest.

I just got into scrapbooking a couple of years ago. Actually it was right after both my parents passed away in a relatively short period of time and I wanted to do something to keep their memories alive for my two youngest kids. So, I figured that making a scrapbook would be a perfect way to remember them by. But, it being my first attempt at this craft, it was really really basic. After I got a taste of my first scrapbook, I then went on to make more. But being limited to the supplies and materials that I currently own, these other scrapbooks were also basic as well. This is why I really, really want to win this particular contest. The contest winner will have the opportunity to win a lot of gidgets and gadgets that will turn their (my) boring everyday scrapbook into something spectacular.

So, the main reason why I would love Christine forever if my entry was the one to win is that if I won and received all these great prizes, I would then be able to make an amazing scrapbook of my husband’s mother, who also recently passed away, for my children. This would be a gift that I know they would treasure forever. And with this contest and Christine’s help, I know I could achieve this.
