I pretty much finished my 'magazine style' album and here it is

I think I can safely say I think I am our wedding. Getting our Patken traditional album was so great but spending a couple of days on and off designing this new album to fill my creative side has pushed me IoI Guess you can only look at yourself for so long!

Anyway I am will probably tweak it the next few days and then upload it to print. The cover will be a slip jacket and it will be a 8 x 10 book (not perfect bound so I tried to make the seams not so exact just in case the page isn't glued/stitched so perfectly). I exported all my layouts in spreads so it shows how the book will be.

So comment if you wish, I can take some criticism since I am having no one else proof/look at it except for DH.

First pictures if of back cover and cover (cover is on the right - back cover on the left), I still have to design the flaps inside and the spine.

Then the rest of the pages:

Jenn, I love it!!!!! I usually don't care for magazine albums and you did a GREAT job, blended the pcitures nicely and nothing looks unnatural (which is what I usually think of magazine albums). I may call on your help when it's time to make mine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I completely agree with the unnatural aspect of magazine style layouts (at times) they really do look off. That is why I had to get my traditional album just in case this wouldn't work out. And I have to say I love them both Of course if you have a very high fashion ultra mod photographs then anything goes but I have more of a mix.

More importantly THANK YOU ALL! ( i uploaded some new layouts because i was off a quarter of a inch on the layout (this is why you don't design at 1 a.m.) so I had to adjust. Working on the cover again will upload that later.
