Simple Photobook Templates

I'm so excited to about our new Photobook section on our site! I bet you can tell because I keep posting about it. Ha! ;) I've just been so inspired lately by my printed blog book. :) I made my book so quick that I didn't really put much detail in it. (Not that that's bad.) But now I'm excited for my next book. I've made a ton of new templates for a quick book! Here are some of the Simple Photobook Templates I've made. These can be mixed and matched for full 24x12 layouts too! They also work perfectly for you blog posts layouts. :)

These photobook templates can be found on our website! :)
And of course they are free to anyone who purchases the plugin! :)

Photobook Templates

I am so excited to introduce a new section to our website... Photobook Templates! This section is full of templates that are made for the major online printing companies like Shutterfly and Blurb. They are designed with their margins so when you print, (usually) nothing gets cut off.

Here are some sample Photobook Templates:

The reason I added these to my site is because I USE THEM. They save time and I love how versatile they are.  I also have A TON of basic templates I'm going to be adding in the next few days. :) Yay! They are great for putting together a quick book that is really 'just about the photos'.

One more thing... right now if you buy our Signature Scrapbooks Plugin (for photoshop or PSE) you get FREE Photobook Templates on our site... FOR LIFE! That's right... every existing photobook template... and every one that gets added from now to forever, you get for free! Besides that, using these templates with the plugin is SO EASY. You no longer have to resize and clip your photos to fit. Trust me, saving time is saving money. :)

I hope you enjoy our new section to our store!! :) Check it out!

Signature Scrapbooks Plugin Deal

I've been so behind on my scrapbooks (as you might have read in my previous post)... but lately, I've finally been making a dent. :) Yay! I'm so excited. Not only that, but I turned my personal blog into a book as well. When I got it from Shutterfly, it made me even more motivated to get my other books finished and printed. :)

I don't know about you... but I tried to make a blog book using Blurb's software.  It was too much work. I had to customize each and every page, right down to the default font size. I wasn't a fan. So I started completely over using photoshop and our plugin. I made over 100 pages from 3 in the afternoon, to about 6 in the evening, then from about 9 to noon the next day. I think that is fast for a custom blog book. :)

In honor of my new book... and me getting caught up on my kids' scrapbooking... I've decided to share the love and give away all my Photobook Templates on my site when you purchase the plugin. FREE for LIFE. So whenever I add new Photobook Templates from now... to forever... you can download them for free! :)

The point is... get caught up... get your photos in a book that you will love. Care a little less about all the perfect details because in a few years you won't care anyway. :) Promise.

{By the way... The Photobook Templates are designed for printing at the major online printing companies. The margins on them are made so your words and photos don't go into the binding in the middle, or get cut-off on the outside edges. I really love my hard bound books.}

Scrapbooking These Days

I've been thinking a lot about scrapbooking and what it means these days.  I was looking through my scrapbook layouts from a few years ago and realized what I thought was "amazing" back then, is just ordinary now. The layouts are about the photos and the journaling... period.  :)

When I first started scrapbooking, I would spend hours... I mean HOURS... on my layouts. I made sure the embellishments were in just the right places, I'd save the layouts and come back to them later with a 'fresh eye' and I would search the internet for hours looking for the perfect supplies. Not anymore.

Mostly because I am over a year behind on my kids' books... I have taken a new approach to how I scrapbook. My goal is to get the photos in a book... and worry less about the "surroundings." I've started creating Photobook Templates (easily done) that I can use in Photoshop (or Elements) over and over again. They are basic templates for showcasing photos and letting the photos speak for themselves.  The next thing I use is my plugin for Photoshop. It allows me to put my photos into the templates so FAST and EASY.

Last but not least, I save the layouts so I can send them to print at any printing company I chose. I have used Shutterfly the most and I've been really happy with the books I've received from there. I've also heard good things from the Blurb books too. :) Make sure if you print from Shutterfly, you subscribe to their email list because they send exclusive coupons for 40% to 50% off. I just ordered a book and saved over $100 on it because of a 50% off coupon and free shipping.

I have really enjoyed my scrapbooking journey. I wouldn't change it for anything. I think everyone has to do what works for them.  One day, when I am all caught up (because I can do 12 layouts in an hour) I will probably go back to making them more "cutesy"... but maybe not. :) Thanks for reading this post. :) Here is a free gift for you.

Disneyland 2011

What a trip! Look at our crew at Disneyland! There were 15 of us in all wondering the streets of Disneyland and California Adventure. :)

It was really busy but still a blast. We were able to do everything we wanted! :) Now I can't wait to scrapbook our trip! I will be using the plugin, for sure, so it doesn't take me all day. Hopefully we can get permission from Disney to create products to use on our layouts! Keep your fingers crossed!

Look for my Disneyland layout in our gallery!

Excited for Disneyland

Looking at this picture makes me laugh. I can't believe it has already been 4 years since we've been to Disneyland! My kids are so little!

Luckily, the wait is over... and we are going back this weekend! I can't wait to make some more memories.

I hope to be able to start creating Disney digital products on our site! There aren't very many sites that have "legally" gotten permission to produce Disney products... we hope to be the first!


I also have a new facebook freebie available for our fans.  It is inspired by my lilac tree outside. :) It just reminds me of spring. :) Click here to go to our Facebook page.

 

Enjoy your week and weekend! I'll be posting pictures from Disneyland!

So glad to be home!!!

Well this last week was spring break so I went back home to Idaho to visit my family and we just got back tonight. It was a nice little vacation but the weather there was horrible it was cold, windy, and guess what it even snowed!!! It was so bad the snow plows had to come out. And that is way I moved to the nice warm weather here in St. George, I missed it so much. So I wanted to make a cute Spring/Summer/Easter template called Spring Fun, I made a 12x24 & a 12x12 Layered Quick page, it reminded me of the warm weather!! Hope you enjoy it.
