a couple ideas - not sure how complex you want to get
1) you can buy a mini album and do the pages up for her to add photos
2) Kathy Orta and Laura Dennison both have a ton of videos out there (one shows a baby mini) - just depends on your time/skill.
3) Keep it simple and take some 8x8 chipboard - cover with pp, punch holes in the sides and use rings (or a bind it all) to bind. Tie pretty ribbons on the rings and embellish pages for her.
There are sooo many ides out there - if you have time, take a look on you tube - if you type mini scrapbook album you will see lots of different album types and then quite a few tutorials.
Hope this helps - they are really fun and addicting once you get started.

I made a few baby mini albums. One was a chipboard album I made with the Cricut "Baby Steps" cartridge. I added lots of extra 3x5 mats (my album was small). I also used stamps that had a place to write in the baby statistics. It turned out really cute and was edged in white paint. The other one I did had pockets with mats to pull out. I used one of Laura D. book cover tutorials that has the binding rings incorporated in it. I made the pockets out of cardstock and added the stamping. All my mats held 4x6 pictures. Super easy and simple for parents to use.
Godd Luck,
Julia
