Safari Baby Album

Michelle asked me to make another friend of hers an album for her upcoming baby shower. The theme this time was Safari and mom and dad already knew the baby was a boy!!
Oh what fun I had with this project :-) Loved these colors and it was cool bringing in textures for an earthy feel!
I hope you can see all of them clearly.
The mom cried at the shower when she opened the book and to me that was a success on my part!
My next assignment is another baby boy album. Just waiting on the theme and then I can start :-)
Soo happy I can share these with you again!
Have a great Labor Day weekend!!!

Back to Blogging!!!

5 months later and here I am :-) I've been a busy bee for the last few months and have lots to share since I posted last but it feels great to be  Back to blogging!!YaaaY!!!

I finally finished the baby book I started back in January and am ready to share those photos with you. I will attempt to post these from my phone now...forgive me if the picture quality is not great.
The family tree (2nd photo) is the very first page of the album.
Big Sister, Lil Brother (3rd photo) within the album for the professional pics mom had taken with sock monkey hats on for them :-)
Preggo Belly is the very last page (1st photo) to show off moms growing belly throughout her pregnancy.

Michelle looved the book soo much she asked me to make one for a friend as her shower gift. I can't tell you how thrilled I was to do it!!! :-) :-) :-)
The baby shower theme and nursery was Noah's Ark. I have to upload the photos from my other phone for those pictures.

 Happy to be back here :-)

Day 1 - Born to be Wild!

I'm soo happy I decided to make a baby book for Michelle because I've found my way back to the scrapbooking world by doing it! : ) Baby gifts come natural for me so it didn't take much to get my juices flowing and jump on in!

I got another 2 pages completed for her baby boy book yesterday. Hope she likes it : )

Here is the themed bedding she picked out that I used as my inspiration for these next 2 pages:
The monkey blanket that goes with the nursery set gave me this idea:

The background has punched sage green circles (SU punch) to mimic the blanket design



random monkeys playing around on the page! The brads in their eyes look cute, don't ya think?


I've included 4 places to add photos of Chance, on Day 1!

A little journal spot to fill in his info too. The monkey brad is from Safari Kids by DCWV.

Monkey cuts came from the New Arrival cart for Cricut. Today I will be making a Baby Shower 2 page spread for the book. Wish me luck : ) My mojo is on its way back ! Woo hoo!!!

Happy New Year!

It's a new year and what better way to start things off than to welcome a new baby into the world?! My hairstylist, Michelle, is expecting her first baby, a boy, who will be named Chance in February! I decided to make her a 12x12 scrapbook that she can plug the photos in once he arrives. I am having a hard time with the first page so I jumped ahead to the "bath time" layout! I looove making baby books so much!
The two patterned pages shown here are from the Baby Boy DCWV stack. I cut up 2 other pages to get the fishy strips as a border.
The title bath time is cut from New Arrival with my Cricut. I added my fav - MS glitter to the bubbles!



The blue wavy paper is made with my Creative Memories border trimmer. The pp is from the same DCWV stack.


The q-tips and other dimensionals are Jolee's boutique.


White rick rack is along bottom edge to frame it.



Close up of fishy glittery border!

That felt great to make! I'm a bit rusty because it's been sooo long but hope to stay in touch with you again : )
Have a great Monday!!!
