Pregnancy Calendar with Doodlebug Design

It's been many years since I was pregnant with our boys but I kept pregnancy calendars for each of them. I started the month I learned I was pregnant and recorded important dates and memories until they were born.  It was a fun way to document my pregnancies, so I thought I would create a similar project to share with you. This would make a cute gift for a new mom-to-be or ... a perfect place to save your own precious memories!

I designed these with the adorable Bundle of Joy Collection and the Daily Doodles sheets and stickers. They're perfect for this project.

I created the top border by adhering a 2" strip of Bundle of Joy pattern paper across the top.  I added the month stickers and some Odds and Ends to finish the top of each page.

 

Adding embellishments to the squares was the really fun part. I used mini icon stickers, Sunshine number stickers and some printed journaling spots but you could easily write the important dates and appointments.

 

I added paper from the 6x6 paper pad. They add fun spots of pattern to the calendar pages and would also make cute mats for small photos!

The shape sprinkles added a little shine and dimension to the pages. I love the little bear. He's so cute!!

 

 

 

If you know someone who's expecting, consider making her a special keepsake that she'll cherish throughout her 9 month journey.  Then once baby is born she can slip the calendar pages into a 12x12 album to cherish for years to come!

 

Play with Doodle stamps on the pages too! I stamped a few phrases like "baby shower" and "cute as a button", and you could also use the calendar stamps to add the days of the month!

 

And ... if you're having a boy or just prefer blue, I've added links below for the Special Delivery Collection as well. Happy crafting!
