Making your own autograph book - how would you do it?

[RoseBug]

I really want to make an autograph book for DD this time, but can't decide which would be better.

Someone posted a photo of a fab one they had made and printed as a photobook (if anyone has the link for this I'd be grateful) and I am contemplating one like this or

getting DD to make one, buying a plain notebook (same size-ish as the autograph books) and getting her to decorate it, front cover and inside on each page too?

Can't decide!

I didn't make a 'book', I printed off lots of cards and got those signed. Then I'm going to make a book, also scan them in to add to a photobook or scrapbook I do of the whole trip.

I didn't want a book of blank pages. As it turns out we saw the same characters repeatedly, so I ran out of some & had loads of others left.

I did quite a lot of generic cards so there was always something to sign.

Have you read the thread about autograph books on the Creative DISigns forum?

I was going to ask the same question, I want to make books for the girls for our next trip - am going to have a look at the links now. Does anyone have a character list??

We used the pages created here in the dis! We then made a photo book on snap fish! As you don't go till August you have no rush they quiet often have 50% off sale so I would wait till then! We made ours inc postage for £14 x

i did mine through artscow.com - they are based in Hong Kong so you need to allow at least 6 weeks if you use them. Think it cost £9.00 as they are always doing offers.

Its definetely worth doing & putting your childs name on the front - the characters always referred to it & put my daughters name in the book before signing.

i got my pages from the creative disigners link mentioned above.

I made photobooks for our girls last year. I took inspiration from the creative disigns board but found it easy enough to create my own pages. We did have quite a few characters in the book that we didn't meet but they still make nice keepsakes for the girls of our trip.

When doing the photobooks through snapfish or another photo company, does a ball point ink pen have difficulty writing on the glossy pages?

i used pages from here and if you want different ones/more then you can request from marion on the creative DISigns page here...

it came out fab, i spiral bound it but you could do all different ways to bind it, i laminated a personalised front cover/back cover to protect it and used a silver sharpies pen to get it signed

Rapunzel is Olivia's favourite character so she'd love this! I'd happily cover any costs involved in the creation of it + sending it.
