I would love to make a keepsake photo book of my kids for their grandmother. She lives in Florida and we live in Michigan, and I'm TERRIBLE at sending her pictures of the kids!

Thanks to Picaboo for sponsoring this post. To learn more about Picaboo photo books, cards, calendars and other printed products visit Picaboo’s website. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do.

A couple weeks ago I wrote about my first experience ordering a Picaboo photo book.   They offer a number of photo printing services, including gorgeous  full-sized, high-resolution photobooks. I decided to do a photobook highlighting our most recent session with our favorite photographer, Drew B. 

image   

There were a number of design options, but I chose a simple white  background with a classic frame, because I wanted the focus to be on the pictures.  Rearranging and resizing the photos  was really simple.  I think it took me about an hour to create this  photobook, and I've really been looking forward to seeing the finished product.

image   

The photobook arrived this week and I love it.  The cover is leather-bound and hardbook, with a photo on the front.


The pages and glossy and large, and the photos are high-definition print quality.  But best of all, the pages are crease-free, and they turn really easily because each page of the book is attached to a flexible binding.




You can check out Picabooks latests specials by clicking here, and you can also enter to win a $50 gift card for your own Picaboo purchase!  To enter, leave a comment answering the following question:

What kind of photobook would you make?

You can enter to win until midnight on Saturday, and winners will be announced next Sunday.  Good luck!

    I would love to make a Classisc photobook for my Mom. Of the last year and all that has been going on. There's a new baby (her first grandbaby) coming so it has definitely been an exciting one and everything will be changing . I think she'd love it, maybe as much as the one's that will follow that will be full of grandbaby!

    I'd do a retro-active baby book for my kids. Alway feel guilty I didn't do one, and having their help would be a fun project this summer.

    I would make a "relationship" one. My best friend is just about to get married. So I would make her a picture book that showed their relationship...and maybe some awkward childhood photos!

    We are very excited to make my son a photobook or all his loved ones (including our faraway dear friends whom we want him to know). This is awesome for multiple reasons: we want him to be able to recognize family and friends he doesn't see on a regular basis; he loves looking at pictures of people; and it is a great way to engage his mind in recognition, memory, and recall. :)

    I tried Picaboo for the first time, and I love it! I put pictures from my (now husband) and I's engagement pictures in it for viewing at our wedding reception. It would have also worked perfectly as a sign-in book, but we had a photo canvas for that! Next, I plan on making a book with our wedding pictures in it, as well as a book for my photography from the past year.
