What a phenomenal country we are proving to be this week.
It's astounding to hear the survival stories, the hero stories and now the stories of this country rallying together to help. The Red Cross claim that in less than 4 days the Australian public have donated $50 million dollars! That's incredible.
But I've been thinking after we've donated money. What else? What else can we do?
Then I came across Sarah Gladman's blog. Check it out if you haven't seen it. It's a fantastic idea for the scrapbooking/craft/art community to get their teeth into. Donating almost completed layouts for Sarah to put together in albums to give to the families who lost everything. A small effort in replacing lost memories. So lets get into it!
Our new scrapbook store Flourish is getting involved. All Brisbane scrappers please know that we are a drop off point in Brisbane for layouts you wish to donate. If you drop them in by March 15th we will organise for them to be sent on. Remember, the layouts are to replace lost memories for the bushfire victims. So leave space for photo/journalling, that is, leave it slightly incomplete.
Flourish is open Mon-Sat 9.30 - 5pm so feel free to drop in to crop your page in our spacious workshop or just drop your finished page into us. Hope you all can help.
