Digital Scrapbooking

Today I made a really boy­ish shaped board book for my son and boy was it easy! Let me show you how:

I down­loaded this really cool quick­page album from Kelleigh Rat­zlaff Designs. The album comes pre pre­pared, all you need to do is add your pic­tures and print. I then adhered it to chip­board…
here, have a look at this quick tutorial:

After adding my own jour­nal­ing and pic­tures (you don’t need to add jour­nal­ing, thats optional) I printed it out on HP advanced photo paper (glossy)

Then you cut…
Glue cut pieces to chipboard…I used a tape run­ner and some per­ma­nent glue…

Cut again with your scissors.…

(Don’t for­get to glue the backs to the pieces after you cut them out…)

Use a sand block to smooth down messy edges…

Punch holes on the hole marks (i used my crop-a-dile big bite)… and embell­ish as you like

I would have pref­fered to use bind­ing rings but i didnt have any … so I used a pipe cleaner and embell­ished it with a pretty ribbon..

Here are the pages inside:

That stamp is his real foots stamp at birth..
