Baby Memories: The Big Idea Book

I love this book! Many many colorful layout! It is worth the price!!!

This is my favorite book of ideas for baby pages! It's not a how-to or step-by-step book, but it's great if you need inspiration for creating pages. It covers a range of scrapbooking styles from formal/portrait pages to cute/fun pages. One possible drawback is that a lot of the different pages were created by the same person. When you analyze the layouts closely, you realize that some of them are just a slightly different spin on the same format/technique. Overall, I have enjoyed looking at this book over and over for help when I need a little inspiration for my own scrapbook.

This book is an excellent choice for new moms that want to record their baby's life. I love the samples of colorful layouts by other moms. The supply list on all the page samples are a wonderful help. The advice on lettering is also a plus. I use the sweet dreams alphabet in my own baby's scrapbook. The fact that the book covers the span of pregnancy through the baby's first years means you'll get much use out of this book.
