Storybooks

This is a picture of two of the Story Books I've made. The one on the left is my first one and it was the easiest to do. I just dragged and dropped my pictures into predesigned templates that I downloaded from my Creative Memories website. The books were made with the free software and the free templates, so all I had to pay for was the printing and binding of the book itself and shipping.

After making the first book, I was sold. It was fast, it was easy, and it looked great. And in the long-run, it was waaaaaaay cheaper than traditional scrapbooking. So now it's one of my favorite gifts to give. I'm giving the one on the right to my niece for her graduation gift. Yes, I'm a teensy bit late, but better late than never, right.

Here's one page from her book:

Now I'm using the Story Book Creator Plus Software, which is $59.95 and so worth it. With this software, I can alter the templates, or create my own pages from scratch. The best part is that I don't have to use just Creative Memories embellishments and papers. I can use the free stuff I get off the internet too. What a deal.
