I finally finished this milestone book I have been working on for my little Jett. When I did this one
for my Derek, I did traditional paper scrapbooking. Oh, how I now LOVE digi-scrapping. So easy and mess free!:)
Jett is my number five of my six kids. After I had my fourth, I realized how fast they grow and change
and I wanted to remember every little detail of them being babies. I wish I had written down more of
the milestones for my first three.
I made this book 8"x8" and I love the size.
I picked my favorite photo for each of the months for one of the sides, then I typed the
milestones that I had written down for that month. I love to look back at their books and
remember all of the little things about my sweet babes.:)
That is so cute! I love it! I wish I would have thought to do something like that when my kids were babies.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! What a treasture.
ReplyDeleteMy first baby will be 1 this week. I think I will do this for him. Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteDarling!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea!
ReplyDeletewhat digital scrapbooking program/site did you use?
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! I love digi-scrapping too - so much faster and lots more free options! Did you just print the pages and insert them into an album, or did you get a bound book printed somewhere? I've been wanting to do one of these for awhile but I keep going back and forth on printing options...
ReplyDeleteThis is the cutest thing ever!
ReplyDeleteWhat type of album did you use? I love how the front is covered as well.
I love this! I love the shape and size too. I have scrapbook envy now!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!:)
ReplyDeleteEmmyshell- I used Photoshop Elements to digi-scrap this book.:)
Tiffany- I had the sheets printed at Costco and just stuck them in an album. Getting them in a bound book would be fabulous though!:)
Peaceloveapplesauce- I just put it in an 8"x8" album from Hobby Lobby. The part that says Jetts
1st year is actually just a cover page.:)
I did this for my first daughter and am continuing with my second daughter. I used shutterfly and made a book. I took monthly pictures and then wrote about her month-what happened, what she did, her likes/dislikes. Its cool to go back and compare my 2nd child to my first. And my daughter LOVES looking through all the pictures and when she's older will love what I wrote.
