crafty people part deux

Need help. I have a whole pile of L's ultrasound pix - we had a lot of u/s's - and I don't know what to do with them.

Any ideas? First thing is I might have to scan them and reprint them as pictures b/c the paper they're printed on fades. 

TIA.

  • I took 3 and framed them together for his room. Not sure what to do with the rest but I can't bring myself to throw them out.

    I just finished a slideshow/movie thing on my iPad combining video and photos of Max for his first year of life. Maybe scan and use them like this? 

  • I would probably pick the best one, then put it in a shadow box with her newborn hat, etc.

    I wanted to do that, but my pictures were all bent and faded. So I just used regular pictures. After that I would just put the rest into her baby book.

  • I also had a ton and for fear of them getting lost, I just popped them in a travel photo album and but a marker of how far along I was at each scan. 

  • Maybe you could scan them, print them and then attach them to a booklet accordion style that you could close with some pretty ribbon you could thread through.  Then write a little pregnancy blurb under each one like, Baby LD at 4 months - Mommy finally got over morning sickness and started craving pickles.  Or, Baby LD, 5 months got to see you wave today we can't wait to meet you.

    Yes! I love this! I think I might print them out using Picasa and make them polaroid style.  

    We actually have a shot of her from our NT scan at around 16 weeks. She was facing the u/s and her hand was opening and closing just like she was waving. I was like, "Oh hi baby! Hi!" I was crying my eyes out.
