It is always fun to give scrapbooks as gifts! It not only is a great way to share my passion of scrapbooking with others, but it is also a great memento and keepsake for them to enjoy and remember family members.
One of the Birthday/Mother's Day presents for my mom was a "Nana" scrapbook. The pages were designed to hold my two girls' favorites about staying at Nana & Papas house. I scanned them in before I journaled on each tag, but some of the topics were Church, outside, fishing, food and more. I asked my two girls to name 5 things that were their favorites for each topic and wrote them on the journal tags.
I left out the photos because this will be a fun thing for my Mom and the girls to do the next time they stay the night!! Take photos of their favorite toys at her house, the food they ate, the fish they caught and just having fun together. That way it is more personalized to the topic at hand...staying with Nana!!! Mom I hope you enjoy the book as much as I did creating it..Love You!
Somehow I wound up deleting the scan of the cover after I had tied ribbons to the wire binding...I used all of the different pink and brown ribbons you see throughout the book.
