My husband and I never had any sons. We were blessed with girls. Ü Back in August of 2004, though, we had a very special young man come into our lives and he has been apart of our family ever since. I've always thought of him as the son I never had. Two months ago, he and his beautiful wife welcomed their first little one, a baby girl named Brooklyn. I made the following card and album for her.
 |
| 5x5 Card. I made it to match the cover of the album. |
 |
| I don't know what it is about duckies that I find so dang adorable! |
 |
| Cover of the 8x8 chipboard album. I had to use 2" book rings for it. It turned out to be pretty thick with all the embellishing. |
 |
| I had this idea to collage a bunch of cute baby things onto the front. |
 |
| A Tim Holtz book plate with her name. |
 |
| Pages 1 and 2 |
 |
| I love baby feet... |
 |
| Pages 3 and 4 |
 |
| Pages 5 and 6. I think these two are my favorites in the whole album. |
 |
| Almost all of the embellishments are adhered with 3D pop dots. |
 |
| Pages 7 and 8 |
 |
| Pages 9 and 10 |
 |
| Back cover of the album |
 |
| I kept the back simple, just adding the 3 flowers and a ribbon. |
So there it is. I actually finished it the beginning of December, but you know my life is nuts right now, so I am just getting around to posting it. Oh, and sorry about the obnoxious "The Avid Scrapper 2012" on all the pages. I don't normally like doing that but I get so many emails from kind people telling me that someone else is using my images, so I finally broke down and decided I better start "marking" the images of my work.
Working on some other baby items for loved ones, so stay tuned for them... Ü
Hope your week has been Happy and Scrappy! Ü
