An SRM Baby Calendar

Today I get a share a project I've got up on the SRM Stickers blog today!

My project is a combination of a first year calendar/mini album. I like to make projects like these for new moms who might feel overwhelmed at the prospect of launching into a full-blown scrapbook. The calendar offers a place to record a years worth of memories in a manageable, non-intimidating format. It could even be taken apart and incorporated into a larger book.

I wanted the calendar to have a clean, graphic feel so each month features a big die cut number to mark the baby's age.

I added a stamped & heat embossed Polaroid frame as a home for a little photo of the baby from that month. It's tacked (so the photo can be tucked in behind) on top of a little pocket that contains a blank tag for jotting down milestones or anything the new mom wants to remember for that matter. The pocket could even hold additional small photos from that month.

Another pocket in the back holds a collection of SRM stickers for marking special days throughout the year:
