And I finally got the Ireland book scanned in and ready to share! :) Feast your eyes on this monster creation! :)
Cover page
Back of cover page
Page 3 - the 5 W's page
Page 4 - Dedication Page
Page 5 - Irish Prayer
Page 6 - Torc Waterfall
Page 7 - Torc Waterfall 2
Page 8 - Molls Gap - this page has a transparency journaling overlay so she can still see the picture but write in notes with a fine tip sharpie. :)
Page 9 - Ring of Kerry - this tabbed mini book opens to reveal photos and journaling pages
Page 10a - mini book tied with twine featuring a pocket as the last page to hold two oversized journaling tags
Page 10b - this is just a shot of what it looks like when some of the pages are flipped over. there are a few inked tags separating the pages with some little mini Irish themed stickers... the nice little turquoise post it tags will be replaced with white journaling cards that have been stamped with lines. (I forgot to do that...oops)

Anyway...that's the jist of it... there are journaling pages and such in the book but who wants to see those? LOL... blank pages with none of her awesome photos on them. No thanks!
Hopefully this will give someone some inspiration about doing a travel book for someone (or themselves.)
