All Princess, All the Time - Autograph Book

[4under4]

I was working on my journal for our upcoming trip (I make a new 8x8 photobook each year before we go with stock images), and I was inspired to create a girly autograph book for DD8. She has most of these signatures already in the book she's carried for the past 4 years, but I thought it might be fun for her to get them again, and have them in one place.

So what do you think???

Autograph Book



(BTW, the cover looks blurry, but it's a really high res image so it will print fine)

That looks fab! Are you going to put in more pages?

 

[4under4]

No, not for this one. She has another one with most of the "regular" M&G characters, as well as shared pages for the princesses. This was just a spur of the moment thing, and the blank pages will serve for any extras she might want to get now or later.

They look wonderful Hon!
What a great treasure memory you have created.
Have a great Holiday!

Love it! Did you make all of the designs or are they from folks here? Great idea!

I did it all.

The website has "embellishments" & backgrounds available for online scrapbooking. I uploaded the character images, and put it together.

Have you had success with getting these types of books printed via artscow? Any Disney book hat I have created has been rejected from artscow due to copyright issues..

I've created and printed over a dozen different books in the past 4 years (5 journals, the rest autograph books). They've never rejected any of them. The autograph books all had clipart like these, the journals had a mix of clipart and park photos.

I thought so! They came out great! How much did the finished book cost if you don't mind me asking?

Whatever images you pick need to be pretty good quality, and you can layer (for example, the princess background behind Snow White is actually an image of scrapbook paper that I found. I uploaded that and added it as the background, then added the image of SW on top.

The Minnie page is also an image of some scrapbook paper that I found.

The Daisy picture is just a jpg that I sized really big, then forced it to be 50% transparent.

But the image behind Tink that looks like hidden Mickeys is actually one of their standard backgrounds (also faded to 50% transparency)!

This is the autograph book I made for my Dad last year for his 1st trip:

Nice! I do a lot of digital scrapbooking, so I could use some of the kits and embellishments I have from that to make .jpg pages and upload, but I like the idea of even being able to use some of the Artscow stuff in there to keep it even simpler (and less uploading). Great ideas!
