Baby's Book of Firsts

My husband's cousin is 14 weeks pregnant with her first child, and I am making her a Baby's Book of Firsts scrapbook! Since she doesn't know the sex yet, I have only started on the gender-neutral pages.

"Splish Splash"
I used Cricut's Making the Grade for the title,
Cricut's New Arrival for the duck,
Cuttlebug's Spots and Dots embossing folder for the big "S."


"1st Halloween"
I used Cricut's Stamped (I believe it was!) for the #1.


"Gobble!"
I used Cricut's Animal Kingdom for "Gobble" and the turkey,
Cricut's Stamped for the exclamation mark,
Cricut's Doodlecharms for the leaves.


"Baby's 1st Christmas"
I used Cricut's Doodletype for "Baby's 1st Christmas,"
Cricut's Paper Doll Dress Up for Santa,
Cricut's Accent Essentials for some of the snowflakes,
Cricut's Christmas Cheer for the trees, sleigh, mistletoe, gifts, Rudolph, some snowflakes,
Cricut's George and Basic Shapes for the tree stumps (they are just rectangles).


Close-Up
I'm very please with how this turned out! I inked the bottom of the sleigh to make it look "dirty" from being on rooftops, used a jewel brad for the berries on the mistletoe, used an eyelet on the sleigh to attach the reigns, created a glitter glue collar for Rudolph, and gave Rudolph his red nose with a rhinestone embellishment. Lots of little details!
