I have had tons of fun putting together these two little mini books. I have decided that these little scrapbooks are my all time favorite to make. I just finished one for my sister's wedding. Many times, scrapbooks get very stressful for people because there is no beginning or end. It seems that memories just keep happening and the book just gets bigger. With these little guys, there is a definite beginning and end, the info has to be precise because there's not a ton of room, but with the circle clasps that are used, it is really simple to add in extra souvenirs. For instance, if the baby received a beautiful card or note from someone, just use a single hole punch and add it to the book. Other things that I have kept from when my own children were born, were the ID cards that were placed at the bottom of the little cribs in the hospital, cute tags from baby gifts, and other special mementos. These could very easily be added to the book as well.

This is a second book that I made and it's cover.
And her opening page and info...
Both of the books were very simple with the pages measuring 6"x 10." Each page has a small embellishment or place for some simple journaling or notes and then the majority of the page is for the picture/pictures.
These particular albums use a pink/aqua/green/orange color combo with cute, baby zoo animals.
I also added mini-file folder tabs to the tops of a couple of the pages.
Each book has approximately 10 pages. My kids love to look at their baby books and hear stories from when they were little and first born. I hope that these precious baby girls enjoy looking at their little books.
