Default Check out my Article at Shutterfly!

I wrote a little article about my process behind the year-by-year book I finished! Even added layout images so you can see how the process evolved!

Enjoy!

thanks ashley! yes, we've gotten our copy and she loves it! She helped me pick out some of the photos too, but her favorite part was the note on the back where I said created by mom for kelly--it's the little things!

Very nice article Katie. I used to find very difficult finishing this kind of projects, I got easily bored working with a specific subject or topic, but the templates make everything so easy. They are so versatile, a great starting point for any kind of book. I am going to use the year by year one adapting it for my twins first year book.

Your book templates are wonderful Katie, specially for people like me, who wasn't born with a creative bone in her body
