The Story Matters Launches!!!

I did it! I get myself a design team, I thought up what I wanted most in a challenge blog, and I started!! {whew}!

I love challenges, and I truly think that the story is lost too many times. Don't get me wrong. I love a good LO with a beautiful picture of my kids, and that is all it seems to need... but I have seen too many lonely pictures at my favorite antique and vintage stores with no story attached. Not even identifying who it was in the picture. It's sad to me. I don't want that for my pictures. Our stories. I want my family to look back, and hand on our story.

And I wanted that for you too...And I want you to scrap about yourself...

Not JUST the people and things you love...

And I want you to tell the story you might not have otherwise...

And I want through this site to see that you are not alone in your struggle, joy, humor, trial, interests...

And I want you to win prizes too!! So I am talking to everyone that I can about sponsoring and offering prizes! YAY!

So come tell your story!! Cuz it matters!
