Spread the love
or anyone else you love!
I love holidays and birthdays…to me they are both great reasons to celebrate! Some people may think Valentine’s Day is just another Hallmark holiday, but not me – especially if it gives me another reason to enjoy chocolate.
Last year as I was thinking about Valentine’s Day and what to get for my husband, I came across a deal on Shutterfly and decided that I would make him a photo book of the kids. It was reasonably priced and he loved it. He enjoyed taking it to work and ‘showing off’ the kids.
I love giving photo books as gifts because they are the gift that really does keep on giving. It’s so much fun to look back and see how things have changed, how chubby their cheeks and how tiny their hands were. There are also a whole slew of photo gifts that you can make to be a reminder to someone that they are loved.
This is the one that I made last year. This book was a 7×9 soft cover book that was really easy to put together. After the pictures is a list of great sites that you can use to make photo books, check them out and see if there’s the perfect gift for someone you love.
This was the cover.
The message on the front of the book.
The pages were full of different pictures of him and the kids.
One of my favorite pictures.
The back cover…sweet kisses.

What’s your favorite gift to give for Valentine’s Day?
Love! You are so right. They are the gift that keeps on giving. I love looking at the books and walking down memory lane.
I looooooove shutterfly! I’ve made about half a dozen books through there in a last few months (they have some good deals that you can get! promotion codes and things!) and I love them all! Such an easy and fun way to capture memories AND REALLY great gifts! I gave a couple away for christmas..but now want to order copies of the ones that I gave away for myself 😉
