This is my latest book, called
"Your Mother's Memories Of You."

It's a book I created for my daughter, Katie who is now 28 years old. The cover is from Lynn Grieveson's Roses from the Attic kit and the template for all the pages is Jessica Sprague's but changed a little to suit my project.

Also, my recipe book, "Christmas With the Roberts" has been featured as well. You'll recognise the kits and papers from DD, I'm sure.


Thanks for looking.

Beautiful Book Erin, When your daughter is older she is going to treasure it.

Susie, I love your choice of templates for your recipes book. I'm trying to slowly compile one myself. You've got me looking at templates now. :O)

I just love seeing everones finished products. I know I love having a finished book to look through and share those around us....

I finally finished another one I can share - most of the shutterfly books I have made have so many others that I dont share them but this one is from a family Disney vacation, and another one I made for my son last year...

I just received my shutterfly book of my Chicago Trip and I am thrilled!!! I was nervous about what the quality of the finished product would be, but it is just fantastic. The pictures are so clear and clean and the quality of the paper and cover is just more than I expected! Thanks Katie and DD for recommending them!

I couldnt help it - after we made my sons flash cards and
memory matching cards - I knew I would end up with a
book. He helped pick out all his favorites to include in his new counting book... you can see it here:

I am so sad when I think about how few pictures we took after our daughter's birth 16 years ago. The quality is so poor, too. Now I feel like I have a beautiful keepsake for her thanks to Katie, Shutterfly, and Katrina's inspiration!

I finished my 10 Weeks To Treasure book of Ian's First Three Days! It took me 3 years of procrastination...and 10 weeks of effort!

Oh Angie! Your book is lovely (and I'm so glad to have inspired it!) I love that you included a black and white photo as well as the ultrasound photo! I can't believe that she is swaddled in the same blanket as Ian was 13 years apart! (it's a classic )

Thanks, Katrina!! Thanks for giving me the push to get this project started and finished! I must say that I really love the flow of your book. I rarely do 2 page LO's, so I wasn't thinking like that when I arranged my papers. I'll have to pay closer attention to that next time.

That's so funny about the blanket!!! Some things never change!

Here's my finished book about my dd's day at horse camp. I've never done a themed album before that used a consistent design throughout, but I really like how this turned out for my girls!

Mel, your link takes me to my Spring Road Trip album???????

Thanks, Susie, for the link to Mel's story book. Wow, now, I know for sure our Mel is a creative genius. I loved your book and I think it is so neat you did that for your girls. WTG!

Lisa, I would have loved attending a horse camp when I was a young girl. That was a pleasure to see all your wonderful pages all together in one terrific album.

Angie and Katrina, those baby books are very special!

Default Our Family Book

This book has pictures of all my kids' family members, including parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents. Some of them live far away so I wanted my kids to have a book with pictures of them where they could look at it frequently and be able to identify them from the pictures. I always have a hard time keepings things simple and not too cluttered, so please try to look past that and enjoy the book!

Default Our Faces Emotions Book

This is a book I made copying one of my kids favorite books. It has pictures of them making happy faces, sad, laughing, crying, grouchy, sleepy, messy, and more.
Our Faces Emotions Book



I'm still trying to figure out how to post a picture, so if it doesn't work I'm sorry.

One more thing--I don't know if you're picking the winners of the 2 12x12 books at random or not, but if you're picking by hand I would REALLY, REALLY, REALLY love to get one of them. =) You have no idea the time I've spent just trying to figure out how get these two books posted onto Shutterfly and then post these two links onto here (not to mention the time I spent making the two books--at least 50 hours per book, maybe closer to a hundred or even more). Show me some love for all of my effort! =)

I just finished my first...it's a book about my family's recent beach trip. One of my sons didn't get to go, so I Photoshopped him into some of the pictures in the book! I used Katie's Made to Remember book template which was just totally awesome for this. Thanks Katie!

I finally finished my first book and cannot wait to get it printed! Thanks so much for looking! I feel bad that I couldn't credit all the wonderful people who inspired me but this community is the reason I could get it done in the first place. Here's the link:

I finally finished an album for my son!



I've been working on this for months! On and off, of course. It's so much fun looking back at these pictures from when Jack was a baby, even though he's only 7 now! Thanks for letting me share!

I love that there is a single place here to see Designer Digitals ideas for Shutterfly books. Each book is so creative and unique. I'm impressed with all the artistic ability. Such beautiful examples. I feel like a kid in a candy store. There is so much to learn. Fortunately, there are great teachers.

Here is a first attempt at a composite 60th birthday tribute.
