BABY GIRLS SCRAPBOOK
REMEMBERING THAT NAME As our babies grow, it can be hard to remember that cute name we used to call them - much to our children's relief. Scrapbooking is a great way of blending the visual memory of what our babies looked like, with the memory of the 'sound' of that name we used to call them. MATCHING THE COLOURS OF YOUR PHOTO Blue and orange feature strongly in these photos so I went with these colours - reversing the background cardstock with the Sissix lettering. I also picked out blue and orange in the embellishments and paper design. MATCHING THE 'FEEL' OF YOUR PHOTO I figured that on this layout, it might look good to use a paper with a spotted design on a light background. Anyone who's been around babies knows that the lighter the background - the more likely it is to get spots on it! Sassafras Lass provided the perfect design. 'BABY TEXTURES' Any baby girls scrapbook layout would benefit from textures like ribbon and felt. I was able to tie two ribbon embellishments together - although my attractive bow didn't survive the rigours of the scanning machine! DESIGNS 'WITH' and 'WITHIN' BUTTONS I decided to make a 'teddy bear' using orange buttons. It was only as I was placing them that I realised I could use the buttonholes to good effect. If you want some great scrapbooking ideas for baby girls , then Dawn Stegall's collection of over 100 layouts is great value. All the page kits, baby girl embellishments and layouts are only a click away. There is of course a plentiful digital scrapbook supply for the more daring!
