Why The Thank You Blog???

Two reasons:
1. As a way of thanking people who I wouldn't normally have the opportunity to thank. Through scrapping my thanks I feel I can then share my thanks in a wonderful way.
2. To inspire others to do the same.

What is The Thank You Blog?
A platform to showcase your thanks to someone and an opportunity to share that with others as well as the person you are grateful for.

Who can be involved?
Anyone! The Thank You Blog is primarily about scrap booking 'thank you' layouts of various topics.

How does it work?
Each month a new challenge will be set. You then have that time to scrap a layout and post a link to the layout here.

So for the month of March the challenge will be thanking ELSIE FLANNIGAN.



She is someone who, I think, has inspired many, gives so much and just loves life to its very fullest. I felt I needed to scrap my thanks to Elsie and through this thought I was inspired to start this blog and to start my very own 'thank you album' as a way of thanking those, in my life, that inspire or have inspired me. So please come back each month to be challenged, share and be inspired by others saying thank you to those impacting on their lives. Each month will be different, not always scrap related but always based on your life, because essentially that is what scrap booking is all about!
So come on this journey as we say THANK YOU.
Thanks for visiting :)

Hi, and thanks for the blog! The link shows the way to my own (I'm sorry it's in Dutch!) I had the opportunity to take a workshop with Elsie in Rotterdam, at Piens. I'm a Belgian scrapper, and she has some fans here to!!! I love how she inspires me to scrap about myself and my values, so that future generations know who I really am (before I'm all wrinkley and stuff)

Oh my goodness, where has this been!? I just discovered your blog today, and seriously, I have recently discovered the amazing talent of Elsie thru her book that I received as a Christmas gift. And let me tell you...I have been so in love and inspired by this talented woman!! I check her blog for new inspiration every day, and I just can't get enough! I'm definitely going to need to do a thank you layout...I only wish I discovered this last month. :) What a wonderful idea you have here.
