Baby Boy Album

This weekend I've been working on a baby album for one my good friends.  The album is 6x6 with 12 month page book.

I used My Mind's Eye "Twinkle tinkle little boy" and The Paper Studio " Baby Boy 8x8 scrapbook kit"
I didn't even use my Cricut, the animal die cuts are from the scrapbook kit. I wanted to get this album done quick since my friend is having the baby any day now.
