i am probably 2 years behind on putting our pictures into photo albums. it stresses me out every time i think about it.
i have seen photo books advertised with snapfish many times and always wondered if they would be cool. i love scrapbooking, but just don't make the time these days...i'm thinking when life slows down a bit...HA!
i thought i would try these photo books when they had a special in december. i picked my favorite photos from each year's album and created the book on snapfish's website.
i think they turned out great for what they are. the best part...they took a fraction of the time of making a 3D scrapbook, i didn't make a mess in the house by making them, and i can even write in the books with a permanent marker if i ever choose to.

i kept the covers really simple by just typing the year on the front with a black background.
the really nice thing is that you can have anywhere from 20 to 150 pages (20 is standard...you pay for the extra pages). You can get snapfish to auto fill or you can place pictures exactly where you want them. you can choose from themed background and a nice selection of layouts. If you're like me and get distracted you can save your project and come back to it after you change that diaper that's funking up the house!
if you could see my coffee table right now, you would see my 4 "scrapbooks" from '06, '07, '08, and '09 :-)
check out snapfish.com they are currently running a free shipping special. if you're not a snapfish fan, i feel certain other similar sites have photo books as well.
