just ordered our Family 2015 album

[clucaswvu04]

all 352 pages of it...ooops so maybe I take too many pictures just maybe, or maybe not

I'm just a little excited - had been waiting for just the right sale from Blurb and got an email today with a good one! whoohoo...now to wait for them to get it to me!

Someone tell me I'm not alone - this is the biggest one I've printed, I promised my sweet husband I would keep it to one volume a year, I think it barely made it last year, this year isn't looking too good on sticking with that rule

Lol-I guess one of the advantages of printing individual pages is that I never have to count them all up! I'm pretty impressed with your number of layouts. I'm guessing my years are more like 150 pages: 2 a week for Project Life plus another 50 or so of random layouts. Oh, wait-also add in another 20 to 40 pages for vacation photobooks that I print separately. Enjoy your album!

that is awesome!! your family is going to cherish this for years to come!

I just got my 2015 book and it's under 60 pages, even that my husband's eyes were rolling hahaha... I am impressed by yours!

[jak]

352 pages is huge! Well done!

[mariewilcox]

Wow! That's pretty awesome! Now that my daughter is a teen I don't take nearly as many photos and I'm okay with that. I'm still working on past years though but I try to keep them 100 or less for cost reasons and because I just don't have that much time to scrap and I'd never be done! LOL

[jumbbumble]

wow that is a lot i never come over 100 pages

[AliceM]

My gosh 352 pages! My last album I made was 108 page and I thought that was a lot
You made me curious how it wil look like!

[scrap2day]

That's amazing! Yay for happy mail. Hope it gets back to you soon.

Now if he ever rolls his eyes you can just be like at least I'm not like that crazy lady who has one that is 352 pages My husband kept making the comment that was almost a page a day - and seemed a bit excessive; oh well we took a lot of little trips, there were 2 family reunions last year, we had an exchange student half the year and did so much with her as well, both our grandpas passed away last spring, there was just a lot. Normally I'm right around 170-200 pages a year

Fun! I've only had a few books printed but, even if it's a small one, I'm totally stalking my email and mailbox for its arrival. lol! Excited for you!

[joelsgirl]

Hooray! I LOVE holding my printed pages in my hands!

My biggest album so far was Ariana's 1st year, and it was 152 pages. I had to split it into two albums, though, because AdoramaPix's maximum is 76 pages.

[icindi]

Awesome! That's a BIG book! I had two 110 page books last year. I doubt I'll have as many this year.

Have fun with your photobook Cheryl.
I ordered mine last month, it was 118 pages.
I make seperate albums for our vacations, so those weren't included.

I have over 300+ pages every year so you're not alone. I'm printing individual pages though so I don't get them printed in one book. I only print certain events in books (when I get free shutterfly coupons )

Oh that makes me feel much better! I just don't know how to cut the pages down - because really I feel like I already weed down lots as it is, but if I am taking pictures I want them printed/documented, the stories told and I want them printed...I keep telling myself I don't really collect anything else (not big on shoes, or purses, or really anything else of that sort or even stuff for the house - just photo books apparently it seems!)

That is so awesome! I got the email from Blurb, and my heart sank a little because that's the best sale I've seen them have, but my 2015 album still isn't finished! I guess I'll keep my fingers crossed that they have another good sale in a few months (and hope that I'll finally be finished by then!). Please share photos of your book when it arrives! I'd love to see.

[nietis]

Blurbs is awesome! I love their qualities!
Cheryl, do you print ALL of the pages you scrapped? I am just intrigued, because I do scrap 300+ pages each year but I don't print all of them, so when I am making my yearbook, I scan through my pages n choose those I want to be in the book.

Sherly - typically I print all the pages, though now I'm not 100% sure it will stay that way that I have been working on challenges and sometimes they don't fit in our family yearbook or CT pages...so they are in different folders. Usually though if I am working on a page, it is going in the book =) unless it's for a challenge or something

I see. That is probably why you have so many pages and I don't hehe... I do challenge pages and at the same time, try to fit it in what I want to include for the photos I am scrapping with. So it's a double take. Also, often, I scrap the same photo several times, so I tend to take the best one to be printed out of the pages.
