I decided that I may want to make a couple princess pages too for mine... just in case we see one or 3 LOL!

But in keeping with my halloween theme, if I add them, I want halloween dressed princesses... which I KNOW I've seen somewhere before... but can't find them now.

Has Anyone seen anything like that????

I can´t wait to see your finished book to get a more clear idea

Any sort of big copy, printing store should be able to laminate for you. Here we have Kinkos that can do it. Also for the cover I print my cover on paper, then print a patterned paper for the back side and glue them to each side of a thin piece of chipboard for added stability, and then I laminate it all together.

I use the laminator for making stickers and magnets too so it has more than one use. I will post a picture tomorrow of my countdown calendar where I used mickey paint chips from home depot that I made into stickers with the xyron, so it can have many uses. Sometimes I print clip art and make stickers for my kids.

I found a pic of the princesses dressed up as villains... its pretty funny, but the res is lower than I want. I may try to use it if I can't find anything else... if it doesn't come out well...I just won't use it

Thanks Julie, I´ll use your idea for the cover and the back, they must be very strong as are going to be manipulated by my DS

I´ll ask my printing company if they can do the laminate, now that I think they told me they laminated photos so I guess they can do it on hard covers too.

Why dont you recolor the dresses with Halloween colors (of the good quality cliparts you have), and then you can add some embellies and transform your beautiful princesses into Halloween princesses.

Hmm, not sure I did this right but here is my first attempt at an autograph page. Thank you Kayla for the templates and inspiration!

Just wanted to post these as they are for now. Once you have the template open, you can simply add clip-art, add the character's name, and then (in PSE) use the paintbucket tool to fill the layers. It isn't fancy but it gets the job done (just in case there is someone still hesitating to try). I'm not sure when my brother has planned to take my niece yet, but thought it would be fun to practice!! I need to play with my printer settings if I wanted to do these at home. I would punch some holes to add a ribbon border or maybe add some brads before I hook the pages together. I was thinking of attaching to a cardstock mat so a picture taken at the time could be inserted later to make a mini photo album.

Here is a link to my flicker photo set that has a few pictures of the autograph book I made for my boys on out Jan 2010 trip. I used Natalie's DISigns to make it. I also have pictures of my journal book That I made and the Countdown Calendar.
