It is a very intimate moment that you are sharing on paper with your family and friends.

So now you have this newborn baby in your family. You want to remember every detail. A good way to start is by writing little details on your baby’s first year calendar. This is an easy way to keep track of things when you don’t have much time to sit down and do your journaling.

Another way to get some ideas flowing is with this awesome journaling software for your Scrapbook-Journaling. When you can finally sit down to do your journaling, make sure you are sitting in a quiet place.

Put some music on and relax. To be really prepared you can organize some scrapbooking quotes, have your dictionary and thesarus out, along with some magazines for inspiration.

Scrapbook-Journaling once a week is an easy way to add to your pages.

I like to do all my layouts and stickers first, then when I feel I have more quiet time, I’ll sit down with a nice cup of tea and do my journaling.

Usually it’s the end of the day when the kids are all in bed. Although they all love looking at all the pictures and stories behind them.

Journaling for some (especially me) seems to be the hardest part of it all. I want to capture every moment with my words to really express what happened that day.

So here are some basics…….

Who, What, Where, Why, When. I try to answer a little of each of those questions, Who was in the picture with me, What were we doing? Where were we going? Why were we together? When did the picture take place?

I also journal by emotion, which adds a personal touch to my albums.

For me, I still need a big push to journal! Alot of times I’ll get stuck and will be sitting there for a while trying to think of the right thing to say.

First-time scrapbookers are constantly on the watch for good advice.

Reading them today takes me back to when they were little babies, and I used to say the nursery rhymes to them.

Copy a scrapbooking idea and add it to your layouts. Write out the poem in your beautiful handwriting that your child will know and love. Frame it with a soft matte and You will love the results.

Place your nursery rhyme on a page where your baby is sleeping, sucking his thumb, or a picture of Mommy & Baby. This adds such a beautiful memory to your album.
