Each album cover is stamped with "My memories" - this stamp was one of those $1 deals found in a bin. Just use a oval punch in two sizes and it works out fine.
The names are cut using Arial font 7/8" high with my SCAL3 computer program cut using my Silhouette Cameo. The candles stamped on the top note are inked with a white gel pen and a Yellow Copic marker. The spinning "1" using 2 real pennies is a fun element for anyone who is turning one year old.

Here is Seona's charms: she was born int he Year of the Tiger - I got this charm years ago and wonder from where? hmmm..........another Asian Character "love" from Oriental Trading and two heart charms from Beverly's Bead area.
Here's Serena's charms which does include a rabbit and the Asian word "Happiness" along with two hearts. I believe the Asian characters can be found from oriental Trading. The rabbit and hearts can be found in my local Beverly's Craft Store in the bead department.
Inside: the pink interior is embossed with Cuttlebug Dot embossing folder, a strip of DSP (same paper used for the album outside, too) along with some punched flower border embellishments found in my "stash of stuff". I ams o happy to be able to incorporate anything from my "stash of stuff"...............we all knwo we have way too much!
I do enjoy making these and am sure there will be more special occasions that come up to share more Bitty Book albums with you. A happy crafting day to you!

I love your Bitty books, are they still selling them? where did you get them?....Claudia
Hi
Bitty Books are no longer available from Stampin-Up. They retired this item a couple years ago. I have been hoarding the albums and only use them for special occasions. The closest albums I have been so far is from a company called Maya Road but they do not have a album cover/sleeve. After i exhaust my inventory, I will prob have to switch to Maya Road chipboard albums. They do come in a variety of sizes OR you can use the ones from Zutter called:"cover-alls".
Hope this info is helpful

What cute albums and the charms add a nice touch. I'm sure the parents and girls will appreciate these personalized presents.
