I was beginning to think that I'd never finish it, but I finally did. I finally decided to go with the K and Company baby boy line because I love this paper and I loved the fact that it came with so many premade embellies. Well, come to find out that the chipboard letters that I purchased 2 years ago and used in my sons album are not the same as they are now. The quality now is pretty disappointing. The letters are shiny and after I opened the new packages of them I hated them and didn't use any of them. However, I did use a few of the stickers and chipboard designs. All the layouts are based on layouts in Cherish, Imagine, or Reflections. My cricut definitely got a workout doing this album. I used the following cartridges: New Arrival, Doodlecharms, Zoobaloo, Cuttin Up, Alphalicious, Paper Dolls, Walk in My Garden, Mini Monograms and Fabulous Finds. Probably some others too, but that's all I can think of for now. I do my baby albums a little differently than most people. Since I know that I am so freaking anal that it would make me crazy to do all of the firsts, holidays, etc., I just do a 2 page layout for each month and then have a 2 page pocket page layout of calendar pages so that the new mom can write all the good stuff down. I used poems that I found on scrapbook.com. Hope you enjoy!
