Gifts Given: Heather's Book

I wanted to post this separately, so I could properly show it off. Remember Heather's surprise birthday party? Part of the reason I hired Oliva to photograph it is so I could make a book with the images to give to Heather.

Here it is!

 I used photos of Heather with the girls, and included a note from each of them. I also included photos of the actual party time and some gorgeous images Olivia took of Heather with her beautiful baby belly. I'm really happy with how it turned out, and it's such a special gift to give.

I used Blurb for the book printing. Their BookSmart software was so easy to use, and I loved the flexibility of editing the page templates. The only slight issue I had was that the colors seemed to print a little hot. But other than that, I am completely happy with their service. I had a ton of fun making it, and the process was kind of addicting. I can't wait to make more photo books!

The book is amazing and was super fun to look at! Great for laughs and memories. I already told Paul that I'm going to steal a few pictures from you. You did such a great job with the layout and with planning out all the details!
