Scrap for Help

Day 11 of School Holidays (including weekends).
Nearly there, nearly there, nearly there.
That's what I keep reminding myself of.
No honestly, we have had a good break but the boys just fight so much.
Did we fight with our siblings that much when we were younger?
I have one sister and I don't remember fighting a lot.....maybe kids don't remember because it is just part of growing up together.
But really, we could have three of one thing and they would all want one of them, the same one.

So this is my quick time out.  I have lunch and a coffee in hand so I will block out the rest for 5 mins.

Our challenge this month at Scrap for Help is to create a page based on children.  In Brazil they celebrate Children's Day in October.  Remember to use some recycled material on your page.

I have included some Prima and Making Memories packaging and my photos are of my DD and her cousin.  There is 11 months difference in age but they get along so well together.  I just love watching them chat and play.



 Enjoy your afternoon.

    I love what you have done here Jas. The aqua & black looks great with the black & white photo strips & the recycled packaging just sets the whole thing off. It really is a great idea using recycled packaging as it is FREE & looks great to boot. Cheers Di xx
    PS Love this new lot of pics too.

    What a beautiful page you have done for Scrap for Help. Of course teal blue is my fave. colour and combined with that black and white stripe, it just looks gorgeous......very sweet photo too. Love your photos, especially the ones of the kids "scootering" down the foot path. I promise, your kids will fight less as they get older, hang in there. xx
