Mother's Day Crafts

With a new baby and a possible new home search underway, I took on the task of making Mother's Day gifts for my mom and mother-in-law this year. I got the idea to make small "Brag Books" for them with pictures of my daughter since they life a few hours away and don't get to see them as often as they would like. Brag books are not a new idea, but while shopping at one of those large craft stores, I found a cute photo booklet for only $0.99. ( I couldn't pass that up!) I scored two of them and only had to have photos printed out to make this gift. I have been collecting scrapbook materials for some time since the baby was born and since I have not started her scrapbook (don't tell her that!), I had plenty of material to work with.

Here are a few shots of the Brag Book for Mother's Day.

This book I had on hand for some time. I purchased this from a http://www.orientaltrading.com/

I cut out scrapbook paper to fit the papers in the book.


Gluing the paper onto the book.




This is the Brag Book for less than a dollar!
