Hello Baby Scrapbook Album Kit

It's Friday and I have a precious new mini album kit in the shop titled Hello Baby! It's a beautiful scrapbook for pregnancy photos or sweet baby pictures. It's filled with soft pastel colors, the cutest little animals, and dreamy papers that look like watercolor paintings. What a special keepsake or gift idea.

I designed this with a square chipboard album from Prima and the beautiful Asuka Studio, Dreamland Collection. It has 12 pages (6 double sided) that include 4 pockets, 1 fold-out page, 3 flippies, and space for 36+ photos of your favorite little memories.

How sweet is this first page with its little forest scene, baby animals, and twinkle lights?! And I love that it looks like a watercolor painting.

This would make a beautiful pregnancy journal. You could document your feelings and Dr appts, save baby bump photos, and record first baby kicks. You could also save memorabilia like your ultrasound photos, a baby shower invitation, or greeting cards from loved ones.

It's also great for baby's arrival! Be sure to have someone take pictures of the labor, the delivery, first time holding your baby, and looking into their teeny tiny face! Take photos of the hospital visits from family and friends, flowers sent, and well-wishes from others. And then ... heading home from the hospital and realizing just how small they are when you place them in their car seat.  

Now comes the wonderful baby photos of everyday life. Everything they do is adorable. So in addition to their physical changes, you'll probably want to record the milestones like ... their first smile, laugh, bath, haircut, and tooth. Take photos of their nursery and cuddles with their siblings and other family.

Don't forget their nursery, the first time they rolled over, their favorite toy, sitting up, crawling, first steps, first Easter basket, Halloween costume, and their meeting with Santa.

This would also make an amazing baby gift for someone who's expecting, adopting, or a brag book for grandma! Hop over to my shop and get yours today!

Oh What Fun! 12x12 Scrapbook Layout

Hi guys and happy Thursday! I have another great 12x12 layout for you today and for this one, I used some black and white photos of my favorite 4 year old, Rylee. She's full of smiles, silliness and playtime! I made another fun layout yesterday that has very different colors but equally as cute! You can see that here.

For today's page, I used a simple grid of nine squares and lots of pretty paper and embellishments. This layout is super easy for a novice scrapper but still fun and creative for a seasoned one. I used Doodlebug's Winter Wonderland collection and thought it would be perfect with these black and white pics. I was right. 😉

I started with the Doodlebug Petite Prints Gingham and Linen in Blue Jean and Bubble Blue, then layered white cardstock on top of that. I added 9 squares of different colorful prints, my cute pics and some fun embellishments from the Odds and Ends. The "Oh what fun" is one of the cut aparts from the 12x12 Snow Much Fun paper. 

This Winter Wonderland collection is great for the chilly season. Love the little fox with the scarf, the bright-eyed owl and the cool colors. I think this turned out adorable and I bet you have a bunch of sweet photos that would be perfect on this page too! 

Thanks for stopping by and happy scrappin'!

A "Beautiful" 12x12 Scrapbook Layout

Hello my scrappin' friends! Today, I have a "Beautiful" 12x12 layout to share with you. It's bright and colorful and full of rainbow fun! Perfect for pictures of my granddaughter who always brings me so much joy. 💗

 

For my layout, I created a base with Doodlebug's Petite Prints Gingham and Linen in Bumblebee. I layered the Limeade Linen and white cardstock on top of that and added some festive squares of patterned prints from Doodlebug's Lots O' Luck Collection.

The small square of patterned stripes is from the 12x12 paper called Bonnie Lass. Love the mini rainbows and ladybugs. It's sold out in most places but I found it here. Don't you love how the square of green clover paper matches the green of the playground equipment?! So cute. And the heart paper has become a staple in my paper collection. It's the Bella Blvd Besties, Heart and Ombre in Punch and that color is gorgeous!

The rainbow, clouds, "beautiful" and the other embellishments are from the Lots O' Luck Odds and Ends. I added a thin strip of paper with hearts, clovers and stars behind the "beautiful". It's from the 12x12 Bonnie Lass and reminds me of Lucky Charms cereal! And those small Lucky words ... that's exactly how I feel to have this lil sweetie in my life!

Hope this layout inspires some fun pages of your own. Have a great day!

Cat & Dog Album Instructions for National Love Your Pet Day!

Hello scrappers! Today is National Love Your Pet Day and I thought it would be a good time to list the instructions (links below) for my retired 2020 pet albums in the shop! I've also included the product links so you know what supplies were used and where to get them. What a sweet way to show how much you care about your furry faced little friends.  

This first album is my 2020 cat album titled Meow. So cute!

This album was designed with the Bella Blvd, Chloe Collection and the binder is from Simple Stories. And good news, these products are still available today (links below). Yessss, I love that. The colors and prints from this collection are some of my favorites. I mean, the fish bones with the flowered print below ... so fun!

Be sure to snap lots of pics of your sweet pet friend. Those silly caught-on-camera moments will make strong memories in the future. Capture cute selfies with them, their sweet napping positions, the annoyed stare, the playful zoomies and the lovable snuggling moments.

This adorable scrapbook has 12 pages (6 double- sided), fold-outs, flippies, pockets and an amazing waterfall element! Plenty of room for all your kitty's fun photos!  

 

 

 

Next up is my 2020 dog album titled Woof. Love this one!

This album was designed with the Bella Blvd, Copper Collection and a Simple Stories Binder and ... these supplies are still available today also. Great!

 

The dog embellishments in this scrapbook are great. They are wearing little sweaters with bow ties, bandanas around their necks and girly bows on their ears. So cute! How many of you have sweet photos of your pets wearing something? I bet they look adorable ... and really annoyed with you. Lol!

So, I know some of you may be new to scrapbooking and could feel like this would be difficult to make on your own. Not true! My instructions are so simple. Seriously. You can do this! They include full color photos of each page too so you can see what each page will look like.

Set aside some fun crafty time this weekend and try one of my downloadable instructions. 

Below are the links for my Instructions and the product links for the Bella Blvd Chloe Collection (cat album) and Cooper Collection (dog album). Thanks for stopping by and have a great day with your pets!
