I thought I'd share some more books I recently completed with you all. These are 8x8 and published via ArtsCow. I would normally only use Shutterfly but since I got a really good deal with these I thought I'd try them out with some personal books I made as Christmas Gifts and I have to say I'm delighted with them.
First up is a book I made for Elly's Grandparents for Christmas. Its a 39 page 8x8 and let me tell you, its not so easy to fill 39 pages lol.
I used all the photos she had of her holiday in Portugal with her Dad and Grandparents. Since we named her Elise after the Cure song Letter to Elise it seemed like a good idea to call her book A Letter 'From' Elise. What do you think?
The second part of the book contains one page layouts that i've made at various points in time. Since they measured 12x12 they havn't come out on the page as well as they could have. A good learning point for me re measurments etc lol but overall, I'm really pleased with how it turned out. The delivary was pretty good too and color was great.
Don't forget to let the books load fully ( you should be able to see the pages clearly) to enjoy the full beauty of each page. These are graphic intensive and take time to load.
My son Mike is currently serving over in Afghanistan and will be there over Christmas. Before he went he asked me to create a special book for him and his wife Trisha depicting their journey from dating to now. I really loved working on this book but let me tell you, its no joke trying to put together something like this with just a handful of photos's. I had to sneak into their facebook photoalbums to snag what I could without Trisha finding out, lol.
Patrick and Carol Wedding I finally completed and ordered this book for our friends Pat and Carole and gave it to them at lunch last week. I think they were very pleased with it judging by the big smiles. They had no idea I had been putting this together so it was a real treat to see their reactions as they flicked through the pages. Everything was themed around their wedding color theme and I even managed to extract some of the gorgeous lilies used in Carole's bouquet
There are more books to show but they will be posted after Christmas, just in case some prying eyes get wind and come to check out what I've made for them hehe.
I'm sure there will be more books to view soon so please make sure you bookmark this site and check back often. If you would like a book creating please email me for further details at booboo6204@hotmail.co.uk
Thanks for looking
Hugs
