Manic Monday Baby Journals.

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here again to show you a bit more of my progress with the baby journals:

This was last week.

And this week I've started the pages.

Got out lots of old punches that I've not used for ages to decorate the top of the pockets.

Wonder if you can remember these scissors with the fancy shaped blades, they hardly ever see the light of day anymore but here they are for a bit of fancy cutting.

If the teddy on the left looks shiny it's because I glazed it, looks better in real life.

I'm working on a mini book at the moment which will fit inside the journal.

It has several pockets to hold photographs and journalling notes.

I love these papers by Trimcraft.

It's fun to find ways to match the different patterns together.

To finish this I have added a binding on the edge which folds to the back

as can be seen here and it's used to attach this to the front page of the journal seen here:

One for the girls

and one for the boys.

These are the basic pages and I will be adding a few extra bits when all the pages are finished.

I've done this with both the journals, one for a boy and one for a girl.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,
