Buying Mother’s Day gifts gets harder every year as we get older. Do you agree? Jeremy and I were trying to think of something great for his mom for Mother’s Day. Goodness knows she deserves something perfect! We thought and thought about it and then it came to me! A Snapfish Photo Book! For once the pictures were not all centered about the grand-kids. Instead we focused on Jeremy’s newest hobby – photography.
Jeremy has had a couple of art shows recently that he has displayed his photography and his mom always loves to see the photos on the gallery wall. Unfortunately, they live in Arizona so they do not get to see the true beauty and creativity of the photos. Jeremy and I sat down at the computer one evening and created a special photo book just for her, full of all of Jeremy’s favorite shots!
Snapfish is so easy to use and we literally created our Mother’s Day gift in about an hour. Hello easy! All you do is upload the photos you want to add to the book into Snapfish. Once you do that you get to add some creativity and personal touches!
To make this process even faster we used the auto fill option that Snapfish offers. This helped us easily put the photos into the templates offered. We chose a great Mother’s Day themed book layout that was neutral yet beautiful.
We added some “Mom” quotes through out the photo book as well. I think those quotes really made this photo book something more than a book of pretty pictures. I hope that my mother-in-law sees how much we love her and are so blessed to have her in our life. These special custom additions to the Snapfish photo books makes them the perfect gift for any occasion!
We waited until the last minute to order this book. I was so nervous that we wouldn’t get the book in time for Mother’s Day but I was wrong. Snapfish has SUPER fast processing and shipping! Thank goodness! We got the book in time to have it mailed to my mother-in-law! Check out our book!! We love it!
The pages are high quality and the lay flat design makes this the perfect Coffee Table Book. The photos came out great as well. I was a bit worried that the quality of the printing wouldn’t show the true beauty of the pictures but I was wrong!
Now is a good time to Create your own Snapfish photo book, because Snapfish is offering an 8×11 lay-flat photo book with 20 bonus pages, 40 pages total, for just $29.99 with free shipping.
