Baby Dedication Scrapbook Page Layout

The letters across the bottom were just printed out from my computer, cut out, and layered over patterned paper. Easy, easy! Much cheaper than stickers too! Here is the poem that is used on this page:

Baby Dedication

Dear God, please bless our baby

Keep watch both day and night

As we raise our little miracle

So precious in Your sight

Please grant to us great wisdom

As we teach this child each day

To follow Your commandments

Your holy will obey

We dedicate this child to you

Our blessing from above

And we thank you Heavenly Father

For Your precious gift of love.

I’m not sure who wrote this poem, but I thought it was cute. Anyone have another cute Baby Dedication poem or saying to share??

A couple scrapbook page layouts for ya!

Simply Scrapping

Since I’ve noticed that many of you are fellow scrapbookers, I thought it might be fun for me to share some of my scrapbook page layouts with you. Now, I’m not a scrapping expert by any means. I don’t get very intricate, and I don’t like to over decorate. My style is the frugal way; more about the pictures and not so much about the embellishments (though I do use them). I adore scrapbooking because it gives me a creative and beautiful way to display memories of my children’s special moments in a way that photo albums just can’t compare with. I do it as a gift to my babies. To me, it is an expression of my love for them. So, occasionally I will be posting some of my pages, and hopefully I will give you some creative inspiration for your own book.

Simplify It.

What I like about this page is it’s simplicity, not in design, but in creation. What I mean is, there are no embellishments, no stickers, no brads or ribbons, yet it is still colorful and interesting to look at. All I used was my photos and some paper. I wrote some letters out onto yellow paper, and cut them into squares. Nothing fancy, but still a very nice way to display pictures.

Here’s a tip: Don’t feel like you have to spend a fortune on each page you design. Simplicity is sometimes even more beautiful than adornment.
