Baby Album for our Niece's new baby!

I had great fun last week getting photos of our newest family member. His grandmother helped me get them without his Mom and Dad knowing. Then I edited them in Photoshop Elements and sent them off to be printed and waited! This week I got to make this album for Derek's Mom and Dad. Derek is being baptized this Sunday and we are going! Hopefully the proud parents won't see this post until after Sunday when Mike and I give them this album.

I used the Graphic 45 Alterable Box and Graphic 45 Little Darlings paper collection.

Enjoy!

New Baby Tray and baby cards

I am going to be adding many items to my ETSY page in the coming week. The first being an Altered Silver Tray done for a baby photo.  The tray is approximately 12 1/2 inches in diameter.  This tray is for a baby girl but I would be happy to do a tray for a boy or in more neutral colors if anyone needs one.  Each tray is one of a kind so I can't really tell you what size yours would be.  If you would like to order one I can give you an idea of the size of the trays I currently have waiting to be altered and you can pick a size. 

As you can see in the photos I have made a photo mat for a 3 inch by 5 inch photo. You simply but carefully pull off the white paper and adhere your photo in it's place.  If you send me the photo I can do it for you before I mail the tray to you.

These trays are $50 each.  If you need me to alter a photo to fit the colors of the tray I can do that in Photoshop Elements but there would be an additional cost to do that. 

 

 

Handmade Books

Today I listed two new books in my store. I absolutely adore the first one - I hope you have someone that you could give it to.  It is a baby book that I think is unisex and can be used as a shower gift or a new mom gift. It could be passed around a baby shower and have all the guests sign and give bits of wisdom for the new mom or it could hold the special first photos of the baby. Another idea would be for a new mom to write in and keep her thoughts to pass on to the child later in life.

The second book is a smaller journal - notes book that has a wonderful saying on the front. Each book is one of a kind with buttons for embellishment.
Please let me know what think of them and if there are books that you would like to see made and put in my store.
