Sweet Baby Boy Book

I realized as I watched my baby boy paper supply getting low, I've done several baby boy books and not so many baby girl books! And what do I get an order for today - another baby boy book! Ha! Sounds like I may need to go shopping. :)

This one was a gift to my b-i-l's niece.  She's having her boy in October, naming him Lane.  Isn't that sweet? Anyway, enjoy the pics!

Cute cover for baby Lane.  All Boy! Judging by the amount of Carhart this child received at the shower... all boy describes him well! (And he isn't even here yet!)

I tried adding more than one pic to some of the layouts because honestly, when you have a new baby - especially a first baby - you take a million photos!  19 pics just won't cover it! So this added a few more photos to the album.  I'm not sure I'm sold on it, but it's all good.  You can let me know your thoughts.

I have an order for a Girl Scout inspiration scrapbook, then will dive back into baby boy world! :) You know I'll take you along for the journey.

As always, feel free to visit http://pressedclovers.etsy.com to see what I have going on there!

Boy to Teen Scrapbook

I will always stand by this:  My customers come up with the coolest ideas - much more creative than what I could think of on my own.  Here is a great example! A grandmother is giving her grandson this cool scrapbook that follows him from birth to his teen years.  What a treasure! Love it!

All the photos from the book are featured on my facebook page at www.facebook.com/pressedclovers.  You should follow- I post coupon codes and giveaways on my facebook page.

Admit it, this is a neat idea.  I added extra lines and space for journaling so grandma has plenty of space to share her thoughts with this special child.  I want to squeal every time I look at it! Love it!

The Perfect Gift for Weddings/Babies

Many years ago, my mom asked if I could find a registry book that a bride-to-be could take to every shower and just keep adding to the listings with each event.  Made sense, sounded like a great idea... but it was no where to be found. So, I created it. 

These have been improved over the years and are such a huge help to the bride or mom-to-be.  Each shower has its own title page to record all those details you'd want to remember many years from now.  Each shower has pages for recording the gift and giver, with a check box to mark off when Thank You notes are mailed.  There is even a section for the gifts received outside of a shower (by mail, those who missed showers, etc)  

It is really the perfect gift for anyone having a shower. Check it out! You can order a custom registry book at my store on Etsy: Pressed Clovers!

Watching baby grow through the year...

A lady at my workplace (the full-time job!) had a wee little surprise when she visited her doctor... she's expecting again after 15 years! Can you imagine? What a blessing - a little baby boy to be named Conner.  She's seen my Pressed Clovers books for a while now and I know she's been wanting one, so what better gift the week before she leaves us?

Since Conner will be born in January, I decided to do a calendar book, beginning with his birth in January and moving to all the major holidays:  Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, Mother & Father's Day, Fourth of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas.  This way, at the end of 2013, she'll have a beautiful book showing how much her precious baby has grown throughout the year.

His birth page - welcome to the world, Baby Conner!

You know he's will be his mama's valentine...

Happy St. Patrick's Day! 

I can see him now, dressed in his red, white and blue!

Family festivities with all the trimmings

I do love these books and we've already started one for Macy. :)  Since she was born in June, I made a book-and-a-half to pick up those holidays at the end of 2012 and all of 2013.  Isn't it amazing to see how quickly they grow and change?  With Conner it will be no different.  Can't wait to meet this precious baby boy!

Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails

Just proof that I can do boy books - and really cute ones, too!  This was given by one of my friends (and former co-workers) to another one of my friends/former co-workers as her daughter was having a little boy.  It was totally a surprise - the book and the baby! ha ha. 

This baby came 13 years after their youngest son! Since I knew the new baby would have a brother, I was sure to include a page for the older brother, too. :)
