NEW! Winnie The Pooh Baby Scrapbook Album Kit

Hey guys! It's time to share this week's new scrapbook kit that will be in my shop on Friday. It's a sweet gender neutral baby album that's filled with classic images of Winnie-the-Pooh and his curious friends ~ Piglet, Owl, Tigger, Kanga, Roo, and the ever gloomy Eeyore. This adorable book is perfect for memories of your baby, and ... it makes an incredible gift idea for expecting parents, a newborn, a baby shower, an adoption, or grandparents. 

I designed it with a 6x8 Doodlebug binder in mint and the Simple Stories, Say Cheese Classic Pooh Baby Collection that features A. A. Milne's beloved characters originally illustrated by E. H. Shepard.

On the cover, I added Pooh Bear, some baby items, a few buzzing bees, and a sweet scene with Christopher Robin on an adventure. The kit comes with a package of die cuts and a sticker sheet so you can customize the details if you wish, like swapping out the blue socks for the pink ones.

Inside, there are 32 scrapbook pages + 3 additional shaped pages! They include 4 pockets, 8 fun interactive flippies, 1 fold-out, and space for 60++ photos on the layouts and in the clear page protectors. The very first page (above) starts out with a picture of the "sweet and beautiful" mama to-be! 

Using a baby book can be a great way to remember the special moments and details of your child’s first year(s). Change happens quickly and you're likely to forget things. So, having a place to keep their story not only gives you peace of mind, but it also provides a meaningful heirloom to pass on to your children.

Reminiscent of the classic Winnie the Pooh books, this album has cute black and white illustrations depicting the Hundred Acre Wood, Pooh's house, the bee tree, his friends' homes, and other forest locations.

Each page is cuter than the next. This one has soft colors, Pooh Bear hanging from a stork, and a library journaling card. Turn this layout over and there's a spot for baby's first picture, date and time of birth, weight, length, and mom and dad's names.

Here is one of the shaped pages. This one is perfect for journaling stories or recording milestones. You could add the dates of their first smile, word, steps, haircut, first taste of food, or first time sleeping through the night. And don't forget the developmental ones that include when they started to sit up, crawl, or stand.   

I love this pocket page with its cute Winnie-the-Pooh stamp and the circular cutout. I tucked some colorful journaling inside but you can also use this space to save meaningful keepsakes.

Add memorabilia such as sonogram pictures, baby's footprints, a copy of the birth certificate, hospital bracelets, a lock of hair, your baby shower invitation or birth announcement, or special greeting cards. 

And don't forget ... with Christmas just around the corner, this beautiful family keepsake / baby journal makes an amazing gender-neutral handmade gift idea!

Capture and preserve your treasured memories in my new Winnie-The- Pooh Baby Scrapbook Album. With it's archival-quality pages, you'll have plenty of room to write and add photos of all your favorite baby memories to save for a lifetime. 

The kit and premade will be available in my shop on Friday. Have a great day! 😊

Snowman Shaped Scrapbook Album with Lori Whitlock

Hi friends! It's time for my next Lori Whitlock Design Team Project and this week, I made a cute snowman shaped mini album using one of Lori's fabulous cutting files called Shaped Shadow Box Card Snowman (links below). It's perfect for photos of the holiday season and your favorite winter memories. It would also make a great handmade gift idea.

Here's what the file looks like ...

 

This card is absolutely adorable. It's a full snowman with a layered 3D winter scene in the center. I will definitely be making the card soon but for today's project, I used just his head.

 

To make the album, I cut the cover out of white acrylic but you could use card stock. Then, I used black card stock and patterned papers from Doodlebug Design for the details (links below). I added a few pop dots behind the holly berries and leaves for a little dimension and I think he's the cutest!

To decorated the album, I used the Doodlebug Design Snow Much Fun Collection. Just inside the cover, I added some pretty houses and trees from the Odds and Ends die cuts.

Next, I cut 4 snowman shaped pages out of white card stock giving me 8 layouts. I covered each of the pages in pattern papers, then added lots of cute embellishments, flippies, and photo mats.

On the page above, I cut out a 4" circle and a 3.5" circle to create my photo mat. Isn't that paper in the center great? I love all the little winter images.

The round snowman's face allowed me to play with the shape and size of the photo mats so I varied them for interest. Then, I filled in the extra space around them with die cut pieces.

Speaking of die cuts ... how cute are the little penguins above? I placed one underneath the mat so it looks like he's peeking out from behind it! I made the mat with a 3" scalloped circle punch and a 2.5" circle punch.

This mini album looks so cute sitting on my clear Acrylic Display Stand. It's perfect for showing off your amazing projects, especially throughout the seasons. They make great decor, and ... they're filled with your FUN memories. And if you're giving this album as a gift, give them a stand too!

I hope my snowman shaped mini album and Lori's adorable cutting file inspires you to create something wonderful this season. Happy holidays and have a great day! 😊

12x12 Christmas Scrapbook Page with Doodlebug

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone has a wonderful day filled with family, friends, laughter, and great food. It's time for me to share my latest Doodlebug Design Team Project and since Christmas is just around the corner, I made a 12x12 scrapbook page. It's 1 of 6 layouts that will make up tomorrow's brand NEW kit! These pages are perfect for photos of decorating a tree, Santa, a holiday show, and Christmas morning. 

I designed it with the bright and colorful Oh What Fun Collection, and ... it was oh so fun! To make it, I chose the petite prints plaid and polka dot in limeade for the base, then added white card stock on top.

Next, I used a Marvy Uchida punch to cut 21 squares out of cute patterns from the 6x8 paper pad. The punch is 1 3/4" but you could also use a paper trimmer. I knew I wanted the design to be set on a diagonal, so I arranged the squares in rows with each row having one less square than the line above it.  

For the title, I cut the "Merry & Bright" words from the 12x12 Check the Halls paper and matted it with the red and white polka dot print called Here Comes Santa. Then, I made 2 photo mats with the same limeade plaid that I used for the base. 

Time to embellish! I added lots of fun die cuts from the Odds & Ends. There are 203 pieces in the package so there are tons of great ones to choose from. I added colorful trees, gifts, elves, gingerbread, a bird, and some acetate stars / snowflakes. They're all so cute!

I hope this scrapbook layout and the fabulous Oh What Fun Collection gives you a little inspiration for your next project. Wishing you all a wonderful holiday filled with the warmth and happiness of the season. Happy Thanksgiving! 🧡
