How to Create a Baby Milestone Scrapbook

Level

Time

Budget

Your baby's first days and weeks are too precious to fade from memory, so make sure they're captured in beautiful detail with a special memory scrapbook for your baby. By documenting these amazing moments, you'll be able to recall and celebrate every moment in their early life for years to come, from their first smile to first steps.

This project is ideal for beginners, and it features a cute gang of animal toppers to add charming personal touches.

You can even use sewing techniques for this double-page spread, with beautiful gold thread adding a really unique look.

How to make

Step 1

Trim a 12x12” patterned paper sheet to 28.4cm x 29.4cm, to fit inside a 12x12” scrapbook album.

Trim three white cardstock panels to approximately 6x6cm, and three patterned paper panels to approximately 7x7cm.

Lay the white panel on top of the patterned paper panel at a slight angle, then sew across the top attaching the two together.

Top Tip: You can use a piece of foam and a needle tool to pre pierce the hole before sewing.

Step 2

Lay the three sewn panels on top of the scrapbook page, and when you are happy with the lay out proceed to attach the three panels with a small piece of double sided tape.

Step 3

Start sewing the lines until you reach each panel, catching just one stitch at the edge of each one.

Step 4

Spread our your animal toppers so they surround your photo panels, then glue some sequins here and there.

Step 5

Finish off by adding the large gold sentiment across the top, and add a few more toppers and sequins.

Step 6

Display any baby photos in your beautiful scrapbook, and treasure these sentimental memories for years to come!
