I’m the same as you, YBM, Frances. Flowers aren’t my go to, but if the paper, and/or the theme of my book is floral, then I’ll add some flowers. I absolutely love flowers, I just don’t tend to use them much when I scrapbook. Definitely on cards I make, though. I like making floral cards.

Oooo, how exciting!! I can’t wait to see what you’re up to 😊

Veronica, thank you!! It was commissioned by the mother. She and the father love the book 😊.

Thank you so much, Debbie 😊

I love adding the year to the front when I know the year the baby was born 😊. And thank you, the month stamps makes such a cute addition to the pages 🥰

Our weekend together was amazing!! I’m so glad I was able to be there!!

Thank you so very much, this book was truly a challenge, one I didn’t think I was going to finish. It had my brain in a vice. I learned that 1) I hate doing commission work, lol and 2) if I just keep pushing, I can finish and make it work. Not only can I make it work, but I can also be happy with the finished result.

***The parents that received this book LOVED it. I’m so happy to have read those words from them!!***

This book took me so long to make. Not the actual book base, I make it a lot. My customer asked for a flamingo baby book for her new baby girl but I couldn’t find a coordinating flamingo paper pack to create it. It took a while to find just the right digital files for papers and clipart. I’m really happy with the final results and I’m sure she’ll love it.

For my baby books, if I need to utilize Etsy for digital papers and ephemera, I gravitate toward watercolor images. Mostly because if I stay with watercolor, they all look comparable to each other if I need to pick from different artists. Otherwise, definitely BOLD & BRIGHT!! Those make me so happy!!
