Default Have you scrapbooked your little one?

Hi all,

There are lots of places on the internet to share scrapbooking but I'm reluctant to share photos of my little boy there in case they are not accepted. Would love to share here though. Would anyone else like to share?

Here is my first effort (of any kind - I scoffed at people who scrapbooked before I had Luca )...

xx Bec.

I think it is beautiful.

My mum has made a scrapbook page for my daughter Maddison. (sisters forever)
I am really proud of her photos and don't mind people looking at them. I think if people can't accept them that is their problem. Show them Off!!!

Glad you have found a hobby.

Bec, thanks so much for sharing hun. Your pics are beautiful.

I haven't scrap booked Noah yet, but I only ended up with 2 photos of him unfortunately and I also don't have a creative bone in my body and have no idea how to scrapbook.
I have to add that the little poem you put on with the pics is gorgeous.

Thanks Lisa, I'm sure you have kept Noah's memory alive in other ways.

The words are from the Dixie Chicks song Godspeed (Sweet Dreams). It is a lovely song!

This is lovely and I am sorry that you've had to scrapbook this topic not happier one.

I scrapbook, I have for many years. I haven't scrapped my M/C I'm not ready to do so yet. I too don't have any photos, but I am hoping to be able to retrieve something from the ultrasound film. In any case the page will be mostly journalling my thoughts and fears about my baby and her death.

Bec, if you like scrapbooking join a scrapbooking community and when you feel comfortable, share your page. It will be appreciated for the intention for which it was created.

Good luck Bec. I find scrapbooking so theraputic and yes I will share in this thread when I complete my page.

Susan
