First moments, first photos, first year of your baby, all of them gathered and\u00a0 kept in a handmade baby photo album. Relatively easy to make and expandible further just by adding more card pages.

Take one of the Krafts cards and decorated with paper cuttings from the Canvas Corp Baby collection. This card holds the first and the last pages of the photo album and will be placed in the elastic cord of the cover and in its pockets.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take a stitched greeting Kraft card and decorate it on the front and back parts. Remember that the sides of the card will be facing other pages as you place them in the cord of the journal. This means that you have to plan in advance what you will have first, second etc. In this case, the stitched denim side will be the right side of the album when we open it (left will be the previous step card quotes side).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Add little Kraft envelopes with cards to make pockets for some writing space.<\/p>\n
