Sunday ABC Book

Happy Friday, my friends!!

I am so ready for the weekend!  And how about some warm weather?!  We had snow in Colorado this week.  Blah!  The Little Man and I are pretty stir crazy right about now, and I think the hubs would appreciate us staying out of the stores. 

Sundays are a real problem for us.  Still.  It's just so hard for Little Man to sit and be quiet.  I am counting down the days until he starts nursery!  I really wish my quiet book wasn't taking so long!!  But he loves books.  That's a good thing.  Lately, I have been putting together little photo books of things he loves.  For example, I downloaded tons of pictures of puppy dogs, and had them printed to make his own little "puppy dog" book.  He loves it!  

Then I had a light bulb moment--I should make a Sunday ABC book.  I love all things ABC--must be the teacher in me.  I had to search for a little brag book photo album that would hold 52 photos (2 for each of the 26 letters of the alphabet).  I finally found this album at Target.  

On each page, I created an image in Photoshop that said "E is for..."  Each letter had a different color background.  I wanted this to be very colorful!  Then I downloaded clip art from Sugardoodle to illustrate each letter of the alphabet.  I had all of these pictures printed and inserted them into the book!

Here are a few more examples of some of the pages:

You can download my full list of ideas for every letter here.  Some of those letters like "X" and "U" got a little tricky... so you can see what I did if that helps.


This was a quick and easy project, and I think Little Man will like this!  And I am going to be sure to keep it as a Sunday-only item so it seems extra special! I will let you know how it goes!!
