Disneyland 2009

I did this book for my trip to Disneyland in 2009. I got a lot of inspiration from this site and wanted to post mine in case it would help someone else. My original plan was to do a fairly simple album since I wanted to use most of my photos. I used the same Jessica Sprague template throughout the book, except for the title page and covers. I ended up doing quite a bit more embellishing than planned but I really love the way the book turned out. I did all 2 page layouts because I just like the way they flow. I broke the book up into sections. The first page is just the intro page and I thought the pic in front of the castle would be a classic intro. However, the first park we visited was California Adventure so I started the book with those pics and just tried to organize it by land. We went to the beach mid week, so that was my dividing point, and then I finished the book with our pics from Disneyland and also separated these out by land. Took me a while to figure out how to organize it so I thought I'd share.

I'll give a little background on the trip too, just because I'm always curious about that in other people's photos. We went on this trip because my husband had a conference to go to in Anaheim. He only went with us to the parks twice because he was working so he's not in many of the photos. We took the two teenage girls with us who are family friends to help out with my son Caleb, who was 3 at the time, at the parks and to babysit one night when we had to go to a dinner. They'd never been to Disney so they were thrilled to go. I hope you enjoy.

Oh my gosh, you did an amazing job on your photo book!!!! I love the two page spreads and how well the whole book just flows. Very well organized too!
Even though you used the same templates the pages all look so different. Also
love how you were able to use so many photos. Thanks for posting your book, I will use it for inspiration when I finally do a book.

Embarrassed

LOVE this photobook!!!!!! this is exactly what i want to do with mine.. i'm just a little bit confused how this whole site works though.. do i buy the templates etc and use them in my own software (I use Paintshop pro and Photoshop CS5).. or do i have to use them with particular software... so confused and don't know where to start!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have started doing the proper paper scrapbooking and find it very frustrating, so figured doing it digitally is the way to go...

Thanks ladies. I worked really hard on it and loved the way it turned out. To answer your question, I bought the template and kits and created the pages in photoshop elements. Once everything was done, I uploaded the pages to shutterfly. You can choose a one photo layout that takes up the whole page. Their process is confusing since they are more in the market to create books on their site, but it can be done. It's a bit of a pain to do the book with them but they are really affordable. Hope that helps.
