This is my layout for the DSD Gimme More Challenge.

This was so much fun for me to actually tell why I do what I do.

There are so many reasons why I scrap.
The biggest reason of all is because I love my family & I want them to know how much they mean to me. When your children see that you care enough to take time to make a scrapbook about them, they begin to see just how much they mean to you & in turn, it helps to build their self esteem. I want my children to know the story of their lives & the story of mine. I want to tell the story so that even if I am gone, they will know about me, our family, & where they came from. I scrap so that our loved ones can get a glimpse into our lives even when we can't be together. I scrap because I am a crafty person & this gives me a way to express my creativity.
But most of all, I scrap because it is so much fun!!!
