Child's ABC album

Letters are alternating primary color die-cuts with a 1/2" border drawn with primary color pens. Adhere die-cut, then write "is for Artwork" with black pen. Stickers match the subject, not the letter. Example: on the artwork page use crayon stickers; for birthdays use cake and candles.
Use the space between the borders to write Nursery Rhymes, Songs, etc. Example "All around the mulberry bush..." on the A page; "Little Miss Muffet..." on the L page; etc.

Idea for using the above song in a sentiments album:

Use a single color of sticker letters throughout the book. Write the words to the song, A, You're Adorable, across the pages. This makes a wonderful Valentine's, anniversary, or baby shower gift - or even a nice gift for newlyweds, decorated in the couple's wedding colors.

To make a Sentiments album that the recipient can put his or her own photos in, adhere a 4" x 6" photo mounting sleeve to each page. Cut various colors of paper into 4" x 6" pieces, then insert into the photo mounting sleeves. The recipient can crop photos and mount on the paper, or insert uncropped 4" x 6" photos into the sleeves. You could also adhere a larger piece of paper on each page and adhere the photo sleeve to the paper. (Mama Bear)

ABC Album - Made by the Kids

Put pictures and stickers on a separate page for each letter of the alphabet. Use extra or duplicate photos or take pictures especially for the album. Go on an "Alphabet Hunt" and look for things around the house that start with certain letters - like "Daddy doing dishes", "Tina talking on the telephone", "Open Oven", or "Super Snowman". Get together and make letters with your bodies and have someone take pictures. Put the pictures and stickers on the correct pages of the album.
