Baby Album



I made this baby album for my friend's new baby. She is not a scrapbooker, so I wanted to make this very easy for her to fill up with photos.  A student of mine asked me to post this since she is working on a gift album herself.  I did not plan on posting this album (and mom has it already) so I apologize for the photos of pages in the scrapbook with the glare.

I have to say that this was a very difficult project for me because I usually scrapbook around the photos that I have.  I bought a pad of paper at Michael's and some coordinating solid colors. I bought some ribbons and silk flowers to match.


I made a pocket and a tag for each page months 1 - 12 for mom to journal.   I cut out the photo mats at 4 1/2 x 6 1/4.  I used Nursery Rhymes for the font.








I continued a 2-page spread for each month.



This album was very fun and a little challenging for me, but it made a priceless gift!
