Babies and More

The baby has been born and it’s love at first sight. Now you get to scrap our darling edition to your family, that son or daughter we’ve waited so long to meet. Or perhaps, it’s your niece, nephew, granddaughter or grandson! What products are you going to use in your page or album? Do you prefer the traditional baby soft pastels, or something non-traditional that evokes the emotions you are feeling?

The next three layouts demonstrate three magnificent, yet varied ways to use product for beautiful baby pages. Marie uses specific baby tags and paper by Cosmo Cricket in her fun and whimsical hybrid layout. Georgia uses the same color palette yet from a kit not specifically created for babies in her playful design. Olenkamajka goes for an original and striking color combo of red, white, and yellow that emphasizes hearts as an embellishment.

Editor’s Note: This is a super sweet and eye-catching layout. The reds just ooze the amount of love the mother has for her newborn. The subtle word art, splatters, and cute hearts and flowers are just perfect, making me wish this is a layout I had scrapped myself! xoxo.
