So I have decided that paper scrapbooking isn't really my thing

I have been doing a paper scrapbook of my pregnancy and Aubrey's first year...but I am just not that into it. I'm going to finish it but I won't be doing any more paper ones. 

I have been thinking of trying the digital scrapbook or maybe even just making yearly photo books on shutterfly or snapfish.  Does anyone do either of these? 

Re: So I have decided that paper scrapbooking isn't really my thing

  • I do digital photobooks on snapfish.  It's really easy -- as I upload new pictures, I just import them to Payton's Year 1 album and arrange the pages and then save and done.  I just use the best of the best and then I plan to order a CD at the end of the year of all of the photos.

  • I've done them both, but the photobooks from snapfish work best for me. I just ordered one from Easter. I made one for dh's dad filled with all of his pictures from birth-present. It turned out so good that I ordered one for us, too. ;o)

    Question - is there a company that lets you arrange your pictures digitally and just order large sheets of printed scrapbook pages that you can put in your own scrapbook?

     I have a scrapbook I've been meaning to make of Kennedy's first year and I haven't gotten around to it. I'd still like to use the book, but just insert digital scrapbook pages instead.

  • Printing your own pages usually requires a downloaded program. Or a purchased program. And you can organize your photos, put boarders on them and print them either from home or save them as a j-peg and order them from a store. If they carry the print size you are looking for.

    I have some friends that do it that way but I have no idea what program they use. 

    I personally still like the hands on stuff and someday I'll get my pages all scanned for a digital back up.

    For all you folks making digital books check this place out. Right now if you order through them by June 7 you can get a free book. You still have to pay shipping and handling but it could be worse. It's a downloaded program so You don't have to upload all your photos again. If they are on your computer it can use them. I've been playing with it and it looks like a decent program.

    Free is always good :) 

  • I used mypublisher for a guest book. We took our e-pics and put them on the template..It was super easy and a great quality. It allows you to pick colors and different layouts.

    I used Blurb.com for my wedding album and it turned out GREAT!  The software is free to download, and it is really easy to upload your books.  I definately recommend it.
