Scrapbooking Tips for Your Cute Baby Pictures

Scrapbooking your baby’s cute baby pictures is a fun way to preserve memories of their childhood for years to come. You can relive those moments of messy faces, bubble baths and sleeping soundly with your family every time you open the scrapbook. They are also a great way for other family to feel involved and updated in your child’s life, such as grandparents who live far away. After creating the scrapbook, you can keep it and show to others who visit, you can give them away as presents, or you can save them to give to your child for when they grow up.

You’ll want to have a large box handy and available for storing mementos for later scrapbooking use. When choosing a memento for your scrapbook, make sure it is flat, thin and smaller than 12×12 inches. When you get a new memento, put it in the box for later use. Ideas include your baby’s hospital bracelet, a copy of their birth certificate, ultrasound photos and their cute baby footprint. These should be sprayed with an acid-free, lignin-free archival spray that will help preserve the life of the documents or mementos. These add a personal touch you cannot buy in stores and will make the most impact in the scrapbook you create.

Journaling is a key step in the baby scrapbooking process because you are able to write down your memories, such as baby’s first tooth, or baby’s first vacation. Keep the pages in order by timeline to see the process from a newborn to one year of age. It’s a good idea to keep up with the scrapbook throughout the year, working at it little by little as to not let precious memories pass you by. While there are so many great cute baby photos to choose from, stick to the ones that had the most impact on your child’s life.
