ELizabeth's birthday gift part 1

For Elizabeth's birthday, I am in the process of making her a photo book. I made one for Grace and for Elena and I think they are fun. Every time, however, I feel the need to make it bigger and better than the last time. This time is also the first time I have ever gone with a printed photo book vs a scrapbook, and it has taken SOO much longer to put the layouts together. I think it is looking good and it should be ready to order in a few days.

Most of the pictures were taken specifically for this project, and most have not been shared before on the blog, so I hope you enjoy. There are a few spelling errors that have been corrected on the final version, but I don't want to reload everything on here, so please just ignore them. :)

So here is my masterpiece. Of course it will only be that until I do something else better. So here it is....my temporary masterpiece.
The cover:
And the introductory page. I think if you click on the pictures they get bigger if you want to see them better.
Every page has a theme. I tried to choose things and people that Elizabeth loves so that she can learn their names.
For the Bible verses, instead of just picking verses that start with that letter, I tried to pick verses that also go with the picture. On the pages of the Aunts and Uncles and Gunnar they got to pick out their own verses, and it is either their favorite verse or a verse they wanted to share with Elizabeth.




Part 2 will be coming soon. :)
