Watching Her Grow

Last week I took Mya for her 1 year check-up and the doctor gave me her growth chart. It's definitely something for her scrapbook, but I couldn't help but wonder if there was a prettier way to document her stats. That chart became the inspiration for this page.



I converted the page to a template which is now available at SSD. Each chart marker, arrow and photo spot is in it's own layer so you can customize the template for your child's age and weight. This template has a lot of layers for maximum customizability. It functions just like any other layered template, but if you are new to working with templates I recommend starting with a simple one or this tutorial first.

Here is a little something for your digi-Christmas stocking. Enjoy!

The growth chart is so cool! Thanks for the little star, heart and flowers, they're perfect for adding the finishing touches to a layout.
