It came in the mail today and as promised i said i would let you know how it came out when i got it!!!

I designed it through theblurb.com using their program Booksmart. It was really easy to use (much easier then shutterfly). The book is hard cover and has a glossy paper book cover on it with the picture i selected. The pages are like book pages, yet glossy. Its hard to see the true quality of it in the pics but its beautiful. The book is about 38 pages and it was about $38.00 with 2nd day air!!!

Im so excited!!!! Now at least i know that I can do the same with our wedding pics to make our parent albums and it will save us a lot of $$$!!!

Here it is!!!!

(SORRY SOME CAME OUT BLURRY I WAS SO EXCITED TO GET IT I DIDNT MAKE SURE THE PICS I TOOK OF IT WERE GOOD HAHHA)

I havent used it but Megan said she was going to use that to make her parents a new wedding album and when i checked it out they use the same program BookSmart - so i think its the same thing.. just check out prices to see if one is cheaper than the other!

oh and thanks!!!

Yeah, I'd never heard of the site you used, only of MyPublisher for books. I haven't used MP either, but a direct rave from your site is good to know. I like going on people's direct experiences. Thanks so much for the info!

Re: COME SEE THE PHOTOBOOK OF OUR E-PICS I DESIGNED!!!!

I am def. stealing your idea! Thank you so much!

I was thinking of doing something like this through Snapfish...but the pics you posted of your book is just so beautiful!! Your engagement pics just look so classic..you must be so happy.

I wish I had some professional pics to make a book with right now hehe..

I might make a book like this for my mother for Christmas with pics of all of us..

Woohoo!! Now I'm excited!! lolz..Thank you!!

thanks Megan - now you'll know how the book you are making will sort of look!!

you just have to be careful with the broders, sometimes it changes all the borders in the book and i found that i messed up on 1 page with2 pics and 2 diff borders - but it doesnt look bad!
