Did you ever come across a scrapbook supply that provided you with instant inspiration. I love it when that happens. On a recent shopping trip, I discovered these plain chipboard albums from the company Cloud 9. The coolest thing about these little books is that they also came with a box that the finished album could be stored in. In my hast to get creative, I forgot to take pictures of the before project but I have lots of after pictures to share. The shape of these little books were so unique I instantly thought of turning them into a counting book. And with the perfect number of pages provided, my mind was twirling with ideas. Some time ago I purchesed two clear stamp sets from Sandylion designs. I admit I have a thing for big chunky animal stamps and these sets were too adorable to pass up. There is a little girl set as well as one themed for little boys. After stamping the images on patterened paper, I cut them out in the appropriate number and created this fun little book.
This project was so much fun to complete. It takes me back to when I used to read counting books to Alex. I am showing the little girl version today. Check back tomorrow and I will post pictures of the little boy version. Have a Happy Friday!!!!
