Loving Me Some Shutterfly

I just want to say that I. LOVE. SHUTTERFLY.  Why, you say!?  Let me tell you!

1. It's simple.  I don't have to have a scrapbooking station that takes up a whole corner of a room!  I also don't have tons of paper scraps and stickers lying around everywhere...

2. It's reproducible.  I made a scrapbook of the trip that my dad and I took to Chile to visit Matthew, and was able to order a smaller version for him for Father's Day.  It would have taken HOURS to make another scrapbook for him the old way.

3. It's cheap.  When I scrapbooked the old way, each scrapbook probably cost between $300-$400 by the time I was finished.  These books cost between $50-$75 each depending on how patient and resourceful you can be with coupon codes. :)

4. It looks good.  I especially love how big the pictures can be.  The old way, I used to get all 4 x 6 pictures...and in a current book I'm working on, I've got a full 24 x 12 spread!  It's pretty sweet.

5. It's small.  Each book is about 1/2" thick and extremely light.  The old way, each book was 3-4" thick, and was HEAVY!

6. It's stored.  If there's a fire and our new books get burned, I'll just order new ones.  If there's a fire and the old books get burned, I lose tons of work and memories.

7. It's multi-taskable (is that a word?!).  You can work on multiple projects at the same time.  I'm currently working on a "Will, Year 1" book, a "Ladakh" book, 2 "India" books, a June 2011-December 2011" book, and a "2012" book.  That would have taken up an entire room the old way, jeez!

Just thought I'd tell the world...I'm Lovin' Me Some Shutterfly!
