Scrapbooks as Gifts

Wanting to give a unique gift this holiday season? Here are some ideas:

Calendar Album
I use a slip-in pocket page album that stands up on a desk for easy display. Each 4x6" page features a calendar grid for the month and small photo. The best part is that the album can be re-used by slipping in different items at the end of the year!

I Hope Album
Create an album with everything you hope for someone you love. I made one for my daughter with pages that included: I hope you know how much I love you, I hope you always share yourself with others, I hope you always challenge yourself, etc. I included photos of her that matched the sentiments. She loves it!

ABC Book
I'm making one now for my nephew, and including things he recognizes on each page. This will help him learn his letters.

Happy Holidays!

I love the idea of an ABC book and want to make one for my two year old niece. Are you using a small scrapbook to make it?

I love the idea of the ABC book and plan on making one for my niece. What kind of book are you using to make it?

I made one years ago in an 8.5x11" album, but this one will be in an 8x8" album. I'm doing a digital one this time, so it will be fun to see how it turns out!
