Can I see your album covers?

[LenaGardner]

For the 6 volumes that I've printed I always do them just like this, but I want to see some other ideas. The pregnancy albums that I'm working (opted to do 3 separate albums, that's a story for another time) on need a different cover but I'm wanting to keep it simple in the interest of time. Can I see yours? Here are my most recent family album covers. The first 4 are pretty much the same :p

Your kids are so pretty! :)

I still haven't made a book. Hoping to order the free one from shutterfly by the 25th if I can get my act together. So I'm useless to you. :p

Aww thanks~! :wub: You can do it! Printing is addictive too...Once you do it, you'll love it and want to keep it up!

Megan that's adorable!!

I think I'm gonna do a "Faves LO" part 1 for my free book, Lena. :) I know it'll be addicting, but my files are SO disorganized right now, lol. I really need to force myself to use a new system, lol.

[LenaGardner]

Megan, that's exactly what I was hoping to see. That's the perfect inspiration for me...thank you!

I've done 3 so far..the bottom one I just finished a few days ago. It's a Christmas present for my ILs.

Here's another cover.... I don't know why, but I prefer to make covers without photos on them... and i always have a title page. lol

Thank you, Lena!!! Ordering mine tomorrow. This is a huge huge help! :wub:

[ColleenSwerb]

Thanks Lena! I might be able to use some of those :)

[Jennilyn]

One is expired and the top 3 expire today. Tomorrow you'll only be able to use the bottom 2. Just sayin'... :)

[LenaGardner]

I know, but they do stack. So if I order by midnight (and I WILL order by midnight) I'll get the $10 off (because i'm ordering an extra 30 pages) and the 15% off, too. Makes a 50 page book $17 if you have the free book code too.

After today, these aren't as much help but two will still work :)

[lovely1m]

Where do you get the sizes to make the album covers? Is it a template or does Shutterfly have it?

I haven't yet printed anything, but I am going to hurry and get this free one.

[cbettua]

All of these covers are awesome and inspiring!

:thumbup: I didn't realized they stacked - and I do have a free book code - and an album that isthisclose to being finished. And a day off today....

THANKS Lena!

[emilyscout]

Thanks so much for the coupon codes! I just saved about $50!

[emilyscout]

Shutterfly has templates for the covers(including the spine) and even the pages. They're really helpful!

[mturnidge]

Megan this is adorable!!

I love these! Makes me want to go buy some QPs just so I can use that free 8x8 code I have. (I'm an 8.5x11 scrapper, so I don't have any square LOs that I can use.)

[rainydays]

Man, now I really want to start a book! LOL, beautiful covers ladies!!!!

The one I just did today, the layouts were originally 4x6, or 5x7 or some such - but I didn't really love Shutterflys bragbook book - so I added some background paper and did a little adjusting to make them 8x8 friendly. It won't win any awards, but I'm pretty happy with it - especially for the first 20 pages free!

I couldnt get any of the other codes to work though :mad:

[lovely1m]

Wahoo! Thanks to this thread, I just ordered my first photobook, 8x8 with 20 pages plus 275 4x6 prints for $25 (that's including shipping and tax)!!! :thumbup:
