Baby Bump Belly Book

I've been working on this mini book for my Step-Son Keith and Felicia who are expecting their first baby. I finally finished it, well as much as I can right now... I will be adding new pictures each month and probably further embellishing it along the way too. But for now it is ready to give to them. After numerous failed attempts to cut the cardboard on my Cricut I decided to just cut templates and then cut them by hand. Way easy!!! I am happy to share the SVG file with you that I used for the book. It is at the bottom of this post. All of the papers used were by Prima. I loved the colors and the subtle shimmers. Enjoy!


You can get the SVG for the Baby Belly Book HERE

    Just love the book. Do we just need to size down the svg for each month?

    my 10 yr old daughter fell in love with your mini album and wanted one exactlylike that. So I am going to attempt to make a replica of what you did. I hope you dont mind. Instead of the belly curve, (of which my kid didnt notice)I would probably just, I dont know, crescent shaped it? Thanks for sharing! It's a fabulous book. YOur stepdaughter in law is soooo lucky!

    Absolutely beautiful! I hope Keith & Felicia realize what a treasure this is and how much work you put into it. Definitely something to pass down to the little one.

    Hi Christie,
    Just to let you know I love your blog and check it out often for great ideas and to admire your talent. I love this little mini book, such a unique idea. I tried to download your SVG for the book but couldn`t,it downloaded but wouldn`t open up. Am I doing something wrong? Please keep posting your videos and unique ideas, they are always so inspirational.

    I added the Make the Cut file for your enjoyment too. I fixed the SVG file so if you previously downloaded it and only had one belly, redownload and you will have a bunch. :) Just resize to the size book you want to make. ENJOY!!!
