I'm not sure what you mean.
Do you want to create a scrapbook that you give to your DD once you've been referred, but before you've traveled?
Do you want to create a scrapbook that shows your family and past that will be your DDs once she joins your family?
Do you want to create a lifebook for your DD? A lifebook is a bit like a baby book. It dicusses your lives, pre-adoption. It can have info about the country, orphanage, etc.
Where you start kind of depends on what you want to do.
Do you want to do paper scrapbooking, or digital scrapbooking?
Do you want to use a conventional scrapbook/baby book, or do you want to do something different?
Do you want to use a kit (such as those sold by various scrapbooking consultants), or do you want to go a la carte - shopping for paper, stickers, etc. separately?
That's how I usually begin a project.
Then, I get together the information and pictures that I want to use. I scan a lot, so I always have copies, and I can make papers, pictures, cards, etc. smaller if I need to.
I hope this helps a bit!
