{Baby Scrapbooking}

Creating a baby scrapbook is a wonderful way to preserve precious memories... Whether it's for your baby, a friend's baby, or a new grandbaby...here are some tips, ideas, and scrapbook items to help you along the way!

The first thing that you want to consider is what photos you will want to use for each layout. More then likely you have taken wayyyy more than needed for each page. We did.. So what we did with the extras, was to put in a photo safe box, or extra photo album.
Next, choose a photo album that is photo safe and is the size and style that you want. Here are a few examples that we chose for baby scrapbook albums:

EK Success Classic Pooh Album 12 x 12 - $ 26.87 From: Creative Visions	Colorbok 12X12 Perfect Scrapbook Faux Leather Album-Cape Cod Blue - $ 25.50 From: Creative Visions
