Alphabet Photo Book Sneak Peek

7 / 31 / 127 / 31 / 12

I must admit… I started this project in iPhoto long, long ago.  So long ago, in fact, that Grae is wearing diapers in a couple of the photos {and we’ve been done with those for nearly 10 months now}.  Mama fail. Life gets busy… What can you do?  The good news is that I’m back on the project in full force (well, I’ve actually restarted altogether).  The motivation? Both Gracen’s nearing second birthday and receiving a promo code for a free  hardcover book from Shutterfly (love a free photo book, plus the timing couldn’t be any better).  

Here’s a little sneak peek at G’s alphabet book in progress…

Alphabet Book Sneak PeekI’ve had several questions about how I add text to pictures for the photo books I’ve made previously and I’m happy to say, it’s very easy.  Personally, I use Pixelmator, but Photoshop or any other photo editing program you’re comfortable with will work.  All I do is open the photo in the program, add a text box, and type in my words (in this case I did two separate text boxes – one for the larger letter, and one for the smaller sentence). Once my photo and text looks the way I want it to, I export it to jpeg format.  Then you can print the photos as is and pop them into an album, or import them into an online photo book creator.

Easy, personalized, and guaranteed to be a well-loved book for a long time!
