My Blog Book

     After working on putting together this book for 6 months, it is finally finished.  I did not have it made by a company that takes your blog and prints it into a book (I found that they were quite pricey).  I bought some scrapbooking software, then I copied the text from my blog and stuck in the photos that went with it.  I added backgrounds, embellishments, etc.  I printed it from "Making Memories" who also makes my scrapbook software.  I downloaded it from my computer to their website.  My book was 100 pages and it cost me $70.  I figure I would have spent $50 just to print the photos to put in a scrapbook, so I don't think that's too bad.  A few of my photos were a little bit blurry, but I think it was my fault as I copied and pasted them straight from my blog and they had been resized for a website or something.  I'm pretty happy to have a record with photos of my family for the past year.
