Shutterfly Books

Does anyone know if you can upload finished digital scrapbook pages to Shutterfly to make your own book. All of their demos show drag and drop of my photos into their LOs.

They are not clear on this one.

Thanks.

You absolutely can.

Navigate to the Digital Scrapbooking section and just don't select one of their templates.

Click Store at the top, then on the bottom right you'll see "Digital Scrapbooking." Click on that and scroll down to choose your book size. Click on the size you want.

On the right side you'll see a place to "choose a cover." Do that and then click "Get Started."

Click on the "Pages" tab and you'll see a place to "Get Pictures to use in your book" at the bottom. When you click that, you can navigate to your photo album that contains your uploaded digital scrapbooking pages.

I hope this helps.

Thanks, Cassie.
That info is exactly what I needed.

Thanks so much for the step-by-step explanation Cassie! I've been there a few times to make test books and I keep getting lost! Their on-line chat help is very good.

You can get right to the Digital Scrapbooking section from our PrintServices Link!

Thanks Katie for the info. That makes it even simpler.

It is a little cumbersome at first. But totally worth it. I've made several books and have been sooo pleased with them. You might want to check out some of their sizing templates for the pages as they are full bleed and some of the elements, writing, etc can be "cut off" during that process. I use a re-sizing technique in Photoshop Elements that worked very well the last time I printed a book.

Good luck! Post pics of your album when you get it!
