A Scrapbook of Surprises!

 Two years ago, before I went on my trip to Europe, I made a little scrapbook to leave as a surprise for Liberty.

Making little scrapbooks is something else I love to do!

 

I started with a kraft paper pre-made book in a box by Bella designs.

 Each page had a pocket with a tag (or two) in it.

 Each tag had a date on it.

Every morning I was away she would read the appropriate tag and it would tell her where to look in our house to find a little surprise present.

 Or some days there was an idea of somewhere she could go with her daddy.

 She loved the book and we still look at all the pages and she tells me what she did when I wasn't here.

 Two years later she still likes to remind me how sad she was when I was away!

 

When I told her I was going away this year she straight away asked if I would make her another book.

So I've spent the last few nights making a new book and I've had a great deal of fun finding little gifts to leave for her.

I'll show you this years book when I get back.

My mum used to leave little gifts for me whenever she went away and I loved that!

 

Just two more days and I'm off on my next exciting adventure to visit Kim!!
