This is my first turtle twin baby shower guest book. The baby shower colors were blue, gray, and green. double cute!

Beaver Baby Shower Guest Book Album

Isn't he cute?

These are awesome fall colors for a baby shower! This paperback baby shower guest book has a tan cover with flecks of gold and dark orange. I just can't get over the beaver. Isn't he adorable?

I have one of these covers left. Sorry folks, but this guy is on his way to Australia.

Happy Fall Day!

Lavander Floral Baby Shower Guest Book Album

This is an extra special baby shower guest book album that I created custom for this special day.  The cover was selected from my paper gallery and the name card is the Scroll Name card.

Inside pages were customized and split into two sections. The first section is this two column guests and gifts layout.

Second section says "Advice and Well Wishes for the Mommy-to-be"

Lastly, is this lavander card stock stamped with the bubble baby stamp in pink for all thos special photos!

Teacher Appreciation Albums

Teacher Appreciate week starts May 2nd and ends May 6th.

So, whether your a parent, or a student, I'd like to encourage you all to write a special little note to your teachers this coming week and let them know they're appreciated.  I say this not only as the wife of a teacher, but as a parent who appreciates everything my children's teachers do to help them learn new things each day.

In honor of Teacher Appreciation I'm featuring these two albums I created themed "Back to School."

Graduation Autograph Books

I've been working on this idea for a little while now.  These are graduation autograph albums.  I don't know about you, but when I was in high school and even college we used to sign year books and tablets and even t-shirts with names and well wishes. Parents take a ton of photos for this special occasion and so, I got to thinking it would be nice to put them all together in a flip album type book to look back upon a few decades later.

Like most of my guest book albums, these graduation autograph books have blank signature pages in the front and black photo safe card stock in the back.

Know anyone graduating this year?

Baby Autograph Guest Book Keepsake Album

So, it's been quite around here for the past few days.  I appologize for the lack of posts.  First we had a round of sick kids, then a few days of no school for parent teacher conferences.

In the mean time, I've been working on a few custom orders.  Like this baby autograph guest book keepsake album for a special mother-to-be in Australia.

This is an 8" x 8" Hardbound baby autograph guest book in blue polka dot and brown.

Behind the signature pages are brown card stock for photos.  Like most of my paper covered albums, I included a matching pen and personized the first page. I really like how this book came out.  The size is just perfect and the polka dots give it that cuteness for a baby.  I have some other colored polka dot papers that I think I know what to do with now, don't you?

Pregnancy and Mommy Journals

I was quite impressed how yesterday's paperback book came out so well. I guess you could say I got carried away. My paper cutter is probably happy to have a breather after all the cutting and scoring I've done to create this last bunch of books.

I really like these 8 x 8 sized paperback journals. I've also been on a pink kick lately and have noticed that my shops are low on baby themed guest books.

I've always been one to journal, journal almost every day if I can. But I remember journaling through my pregnancies and even after my babies were born Chad bought me this "mommy journal". It was just a simple wire bound book with blank pages and it was divided into three sections on each page and each section had a place for a date. Inside this mommy journal you'd write things like miles stones, firsts (words, steps, etc...), and even funny things or just something your child did that day you wanted to remember.

I enjoy filling out that journal and alot of time I'd tape picture inside it too.

So when I created this last batch of paperback journals I decided to put photo pages in the back. I've officially named them "Journal Albums". 

With the sweet pink and nursery rhyme theme they'd make a wonderful mommy journal or even a pregnancy journal.  There's 100 pages for writing and between 14 and 20 pages for photos (each book varies due to book colors).

The photo above is the Strawberry covered Journal Album . It has pink writing pages and red photo pages.

Just like yesterday's paperback book, you could also use these journals as guest book. I left most of them blank, but stamped a few, like this floral one. I got carried away with flowers.

And I stamped this one with the cute little chic to match the little chic cover on the front

Can you imagine your little one reading this and looking at all the photos when they're ready to be parents?

And yes, for all you mothers of boys, I can create them with boy theme colors and prints too. :)
