Baby Album.....

My friend came over to play in my Arthaven
yesterday.  She was working on completing a few unfinished projects and I wanted to finish up this baby album.

Leisa made one of these albums for a baby gift and it turned out so cute.  The album was made by Cheryl from Gemzile and found on Youtube.com.   After watching the video, I decided to make it myself.
 

 I also used a baby theme but any theme would work.  This album will hold at least fifty or more pictures and journaling.  Cheryl walks you through each step on her video so  it was rather easy.  It helps to watch it at least

 
once before starting the album.  I used magnet closures on some of the fold outs but ribbons can work just as well and adds an additional embellishment to the page.  On the flaps, I used a border punch to make it

a little more feminine.   The paper I used is Bundle of Joy by Kaisercrafts.  I used regular card stock to construct the pages before covering with pattern paper.  The only embellishments are pieces fussy cut from the
 

collection.  The papers are really pretty that not much embellishment is needed.  This album measures 6" X 6" with the cover being slightly larger.  Each page has a top loading pocket with full sized tags.  I added photo

mats to front and back of the tags.  Picking out the right papers for each page is the time consuming part of this album but overall it was very easy to make.  Thanks for taking a peek at my finished album.  Enjoy!
