New Baby Boy Memory Book

 

I have covered my Memory Book page with Stamperia patterned paper. I die cut the photograph element with a Tonic die. I assembled it and then attached to my page. I added a piece of card to fit inside the frame to make it easier for the recipient to add a photograph because they have a template for size. I printed the details and die cut them with Presscut dies from a nesting set then added them to blue ovals before attaching to my page. 

New Baby Boy Memory Book

 

I have used dies in 2 sizes from the Memory Book 1 Collection. I have covered the page with Stamperia paper. I created a pocket using the same size die as the actual page by cutting slightly less than half off the die cut and attaching it to the page on the three edges. I added the patterned paper to the front of the pocket.  I die cut the tags using a Tonic die.  I printed the details and die cut them with a Presscut die from a nesting set. I added the shoes which I cut with Marianne dies. I completed the tags with satin ribbon.
