WELCOME TO THE WORLD SNAP BINDER ALBUM/SIMPLE STORIES

Happy Friday, friends! It's hard to believe that my baby will be 16 years old on the 21st! I once read a quote from a book that said, "the days move slow and the years goes by fast." And isn't that the truth?! I finally got around to making a baby album for Edward. I had photos in a post bound album. LOL...I know. Sad, but hey, better late than never!

For this Album, I used Simple Stories' Say Cheese Classic Pooh Baby collection. It's super cute, and I just love how this came together! I Kept the cover simple, adding paper and a few foam stickers and the chipboard to the center. Next, I added the ribbon with the decorative brad.

I love this cute 6x8 patterned paper that comes in the paper pad. I added the yellow foam sticker heart to the balloon to add dimension and then placed the flower foam sticker at the bottom of the journaling section.
The big "You'll always be my baby" die cut is super fun. I love how it takes up the bottom portion of the layout-hiding Edward's bottom. I tucked the tag from the cut-apart sheet behind the photo and added a few stickers and decorative brads to fill in the white space.
One thing that I love about this collection is that it comes with interactive pages and pockets!! I was super thrilled when I saw this new addition to the collection. They are so pretty!
Here is another interactive page from the packet. I added the patterned paper to the inside to break up the plaid pattern. Next, I matted the photos using die cuts and journaling cards. Once the photos were mounted down, I added all the pretty embellishments. I LOVE this spread so much.

I used the notebook paper from the SNAP Binder to journal about the day when we brought Edward home!  I love how simple this page is...with the overall design. The foam stickers across the top really make a difference with the design. 

This is another interactive page. It's a large tag that I added a photo to, and then I added the layered flowers and embellishments to add dimension. 
Of course I had to add a belly shot, too! 
The 4x6 journaling card looks so perfect with the adorable photo. I kept it simple, focusing on the photo.
I hope you found these pages inspiring. This is not even half the layouts I created in this album. Check out my process video on how I set this album up. Also, I have a full reel of the album on my Instagram account.Thank you so much for visiting today.

Hugs,
Nicole
