I received an email from Melissa last night letting me know that she had used my Love You Because Layered Template Set to create 8×8 books for her husband and kids this past holiday. I clicked on the link and was so inspired to see how she had used the templates and to see her amazing photography! This is exactly what I hoped people would create with this product.
I especially love how she included little notes from the rest of the family on the last page.
Thanks so much for sharing your books with me Melissa! You can view all here books here.
UPDATED : Melissa put together a blog post showing her HowTo for this project. Check it out here.
Here’s another one:
I need to bump this project up on my list to make for my family.
