Stamps Ahead

My swap partners "blind date with a book" package arrived today, from Adelaide SA. Here are some photos: Brown paper packaging with stamped images, and pockets full of embellishments.                                The book was a 1978 edition of The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady. These books are rare to find and so much loved by junk journalers around the world.  Also shown some of the embellishments from the pocket on the wrapping. My swap partner also included a little extra folio of goodness. The photo below shows the inside with lots of tags and pockets. I was overwhelmed to receive all these goodies and have sent thanks to her.  I will spend many an hour going through these looking more closely at each and every page.   Thank you for looking, Margaret

I am participating in a "blind date with a book" challenge over at  Junk Journal Fix with SunflowersAndDors!   It is like a regular blind date where you don't know what you're getting until you get there - but with books!! And to make it even more interesting, someone else make the choice for you! Here is my book packaged ready for postage tomorrow to my swap partner in Adelaide, SA. Some hints as to the book I have sent: Inspired by a movie you may have seen and loved. Draw inspiration Words to live by Principles to live by A year-long adventure I will post what is inside when my blind date with a book partner has received her package. Thank you for looking, Margaret
