Talking Chris [Casbury] ????

Chris, I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to know what happened when you gave your sister the Japan album you made for her birthday?? Was she blown away like we were? Were there tears that made it worth the hard work?

I hadn't even seen Chris' book, so thank you for posting this. It's absolutely fantastic. What a gift! I'd love to hear how her sister reacted, too

Thanks, Janet, for telling me about this thread. I hadn't seen it yet. But, NO, we haven't exchanged gifts yet! Although my husband gave us a surprise party on the 16th, our real birthday is the 26th and then we're going to Reno with friends that next weekend. I was dying to give my sister the album but she wants to wait and exchange gifts when we're in Reno...another week and a half! I'm as antsy as a little kid!

I'll let you all know. Thanks for asking!

Did you have the book done through shutterfly? Did you use a purchased template or just your own thing

Jennaz, I did use Shutterfly and chose the custom option path to upload my own full bleed pages instead of using their templates.

Only four more days until I can give my sister her album!
