Each week I share a scrapbook layout to give you a little sneak peek into what I’m scrapping, and inspire you to play with pretty pixels too. Today I’m sharing a page from my little boy's album. My little boy is learning to talk and I'm documenting his progress in my scrapbook album. Have you ever scrapped the same layout twice? I used the same design here for two layouts, first I created this one for Emily along a similar theme.

Layout: Little Talker

How to create the look

Take a template from the Simple Scrapper Premium Membership

Clip a selection of papers to the journal cards spots. I used Dream Chaser by Traci Stroud ; Bluebird by Chelle's Creations available at Scrap Orchard.

Create text boxes for the journalling.

Create a title in one of the card spots with an alpha set. (Learn how)

Use the color picker to match the font colour with the patterned paper.

Add a couple of favorite embellishments.

Journaling

I collected the journaling from social media and a 'to scrap' list I keep. Edward is really trying to talk now. For months he was an expert at the shake/nod and point to get what he needs.

He is adding words on a weekly basis.

Here are some favourites...

18 Months

• mum
• dad
• woof for all animals
• hoo hoo (food)
• grandma
• pop
• shoes

21 Months

• scissors
• duck
• dessert
• nut
• hello
• wa-wa (water)
• ta for yes and please
• me
• Mi for Emily
• all the animal sounds including neigh and clop clop for a horse.
