A Book for Kate

On Friday my sister and I went to a scrapbook store in Waxahachie. Now, to many of you this wouldn't seem like anything special. However, EVERY scrapbook store in the Arlington/Mansfield area has closed. (That is, with the exception of Hobby Lobby and Michaels...which are actually CRAFT stores)

And there's nothing like a great scrapbook store....they have all the

latest papers, embellishments, blah blah blah.

THIS particular store we went to was no exception.

GREAT selection! Seriously.

They carried a large selection of chip board related items....

alphas, designs, and they even had books.

These weren't just any books...they were in a variety

of shapes and sizes.

I loved 'em. They were so cute.

So I bought a book to make for Kate.

It's in the shape of a tiara.

And as if I had nothing better to do, I sat down yesterday and finished the whole thing.

Couldn't wait.

And most importantly ....she LOVED it!

She thanked me over and over.

And said, "Mommy, I thought you were making another book

for someone else. I'm so excited that you were just trickin' me"
