Baby Announcement Scrapbooking

scrapbooking birth announcements

Here’s some baby announcement ideas:

1. Come up with phrases such as, “It’s a girl!” or “It’s a boy!” and set them aside so that when you’re ready to put the scrapbook together in premade book , the various themed phrases you need will be at your disposal.

2. Collect photos of your newborn from the delivery room and the first month of his/her life. If you have a large collection of photographs on hand and ready to go, it will be much easier to select the best shots and place them in the scrapbook in the most aesthetically pleasing manner.

3.Gather all the materials you’ll need to work on the project – scrapbook paper, white cardstock, alphabet stickers, baby-themed stickers, clear photo corners, a photo mount, and archival mist.

4. Keep the original newspaper announcement in a safe place, and then make a copy for the scrapbook. This way the original copy won’t get damaged, and you’ll have the freedom to get creative with the posting in more interesting ways. If you’re really set on using the original, it has to be protected. Spray archival mist on the clipping. This neutralizes the acid and ensures the paper won’t turn an unsightly yellow color.

5. Start with the newspaper clipping – place it on the first page along with any photos you want to include. Use mounting tape to secure the clipping and photo corners to keep the photographs in place.

6. For your scrapbook baby announcement, create a journaling block to write about the labor and delivery, and all the memories of the day your baby first came into the world.

7. Use alphabet stickers to spell out your baby’s name in a creative way.

As you can see, it’s easy to make a baby announcement scrapbook that can be shared with friends and family. Baby announcement scrapbooking is a great way to create an official memento of your child’s birth without a lot of effort.
