I've created 12 little 4x6 layouts using the gorgeous FANCY PANTS Baby Mine papers.




I will pop them into one of these 12 x 12 divided refills as a page for my grand-daughters album. You could also make these ahead of time, a bit like our scrap ahead challenge, and take the monthly photos as baby grows.
These little 4x6's could also be made into a Grandma's brag/keepsake book, glueing them back to back but keeping in mind where you need to punch a hole for a ring or some ribbon to keep it together. Another idea is making these mini LO's and popping them into one of those multi photo frames , keeping in mind you would need to get the frame first to know whether the LO had to be in landscape or portrait orientation and keeping the little LO's very flat so that the glass would fit back in the frame.

Firstly I cut out the 1 - 12 cards from FP Baby Mine Cards paper and used these as the main embellies on each LO. Then I cut twelve 4x6 pieces (4ea of 3 patterns)and then used the scraps of what was left of the papers to use as embellies on each LO to tie them all together.

A few close ups of some of the little mini's.
I've punched out some little butterflies from the leftovers of the papers.

Here I've cut the "4" card in half and used the bottom of it as a photo matt for the 8mth LO.


You can make little banners from the leftovers. It all ties in together in the end.

twine,scraps of lace and some prima flowers.

I had a heap of fun creating each one of these little layouts and as you can see it all comes together to form a "12 x 12 page" for your album using the divided refill. They could all be stuck onto a 12x12 background too if you like but I really love using these divided refills just to create something a little different in my albums.

This is a great idea Deb.. its lovely to see how much she's grown throughout the little 6x4's!!

I love it. I can do something like that my Matthew's album. I going to give it a go.
