The Best in Baby Scrapbooking
As you know, I am a big scrapbooker. And having a baby has only made me more passionate about this hobby. I have done a lot of research and shopping to find products that really enhance the stories that I chronicle in my scrapbooks. I decided I should share what I have found in a special series:
The second week in December is going to be dedicated to all things baby scrapbooking related. Each day, I will profile a different product that I love. The best part? Not only will you see lots of great baby scrapbooking ideas, but you will have the chance to win the featured product every day. We are talking big brand names in scrapbooking too!
I need your help in spreading the word about this special week. Would you consider putting this button your blog? Be sure to leave a comment if you do so. I am going to have a special giveaway just for those of you who link up (trust me, you are going to want it.) 🙂 The giveaway won’t be until December, so please encourage your friends to do the same. I really appreciate your help and support. This is going to be so cool.
Don’t you love the button? It was designed by Danielle at Blogs by Danielle. She is going to be doing a rockin’ new header for me too – as a busy, working mom I am grateful that God has blessed people like Danielle with such savvy skills! One less thing on my plate. Check out her site and have her do a blog makeover for you. If you tell her I sent you, you will get a discount. Love that!
I love it when you put your pages on here, I get so many ideas. I make cards with all of the scrapbooking tools and scraps. Thanks Bev
I forgot to put on the last post that I put the button on my blog. Bev
I posted the the button! I hope it helps you get a lot of traffic and can not wait to see and read your scrapbooking ideas for baby! Hope you have a great week!
I put the button on my blog. Even though my own children are older, I do babysit a little one just a couple of months older than your Elias. So, I am somewhat still in baby mode…at least during the day!
Looking forward to the ideas and maybe a prize???

Fun! Can you do a Q&A type thing???
I have a little girl who just turned one and am starting to think about her first year album. I want to do something creative – but am not a big scrapbooker and am thinking digital might be the way to go. I know you don't do much digital – but do you have any recommendations for good sites??
Also- I would LOVE to hear some ideas on how to lay out an album like this… chronological? A little of that mixed with other things? What other sections would you include?
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
One more question for you… Maybe something you could discuss on a future post…
I like the IDEA of scrapbooking… but something I struggle with is that so many scrapbooks look ‘too busy’ (and overwhelming to me!). However – I want something more than just a photo album. Ideally I’d have great pictures, some journaling, and a little bit of ‘style’ (even if it is just a similar font and a little embellishment) running through to give continuity and a little ‘pop’.
But I’m having a hard time finding examples of this. Can you direct me? Are there scrapbook sites that specialize in a very clean, simple look?
THANK YOU! I love, love, love your blog, your style and have really enjoyed reading of your adventures with your beautiful son.
Hey! I put your button on my blog…I love to see your creativity! I’m working on a baby book for a friend so I’m excited to get ideas!
HI Jessica.. I have you on my blog.. Cute Button and I am so proud of myself..its the first one I have added to my blog all by myself 🙂

I’ll go put up your button right now 🙂 But you don’t have to enter me in the giveaway since I don’t have a baby to scrap for (unless you want to loan me Elias?). Yeah, didn’t think so…
🙂
Danielle just edited the button to make it smaller, so hopefully it will better accommodate your blogs now! Thanks for all the help already. You are a fabulous bunch. 🙂
Hey, Jess… my button is way bigger on my blog than yours. Any idea why?
I am new to your blog…excited to get some new scrapbooking ideas!
I posted the button on my blog. I love checking out your scrapbooking ideas!
Thank you so much for changing the size of it. I have it proudly on my blog =] xxx.
I put the button on my blog. I always enjoy seeing your ideas. I’ll look forward to all of your baby ideas!

I posted your button on my blog. I’m excited about your focus on baby products. I’m going on a scrapbooking retreat in January, and my project for the weekend is going to be my 1-year-old daughter’s baby book. I can’t wait!
I put your button on my blog. I have a munchkin and haven’t scrapped much since he was born almost 2 years ago. Just the fact that you have scrapped is inspiration to me!
I put the button on my blog howver the cute little button is not what showed up. It was the titled of your bolg.
I put your button on my blog too! I’ve started a “first year” scrapbook for my son who is 16 months and you are definitely inspiration for me to finish it up! You make it look so easy!!!! Thank you!!!
I just found her blog via Bring the Rain last week and love your scrapbooking ideas. Can’t wait until your December best of baby week. Lyn in TX.
Hey Jessica!
I’ve read your blog for a little while now and love to learn about scrapbooking (plus Elias is a little cute). Thanks for your advice, can’t wait for a week of it- I added the button to my blog. I don’t have kids yet, but I nanny a lot and try to find fun ways of documenting life while the parents are away- coming here just makes me feel more creative!
The button is on my blog!! I am a big scrapbooker as well. Ok, maybe not as big as you since I’m in nursing school but I’ll get there the day I graduate! Love your blog! Again, the button is on my blog. ~Eva
