I like the Shutterfly Harvest Hues photo book template. I love the neutral tones and the nrandom arrangement of the photos.
I love the Rock On template – I’m a sucker for the black background – it simply makes pictures pop!
I like the ABC’s template the best!
Modern Portfolio!
Hmm. It’s a toss up between Modern Black and Happiness Is…
I love the Confetti Splash! great colors
I really like the custom option, however, of the pre-made templates, Confetti Splash warms my heart.
I really like the “Hit the Road” template – it would be perfect for the big road trip I just took with my husband, and two cats!
I like the modern black–sort of makes you feel like you’re ina dark room watching home videos.
Here’s hoping!
Wow they’ve got a lot of great new options since i last made a book! I really love the Family Memories template
Hmmm…Probably Modern Black or Versatile Classics. It really would depend on the purpose/content of the book, though.
My favorite template has to be the basic black.
Though it was hard to choose!
Would most likely use the custom option – but love the “planes/trains” as a template. I made a photo book last year for my folks when they came to visit me in NYC, documenting their trip. This would be perfect for anyone else visiting!!
I like the Travel Snapshots template — it’d go great with all our travel photos
Having been looking at these for wedding books, I love the “Oh Baby Girl” template. For other photos I really like the look of the Versatile Classics.
I like the Natural Neutrals! So perfect!
I love the “travel snapshots” custom path style template. The backgrounds look like old maps. This would make a really beautiful travel photo journal.
Modern Portfolio – because when you tell someone that you make stuff you’d better be ready to show them pictures.
Hit the Road would be perfect for all my travel photos. I also love Modern Portfolio for day to day pictures.
I like the Black and White backdrop style, but the ModernBlack is nice as well. Knowing me, though, I’d want to go full custom. Here’s hoping!
I like the Modern Black, but I really love the colors and patterns of Oh So Mod and Good Times. I guess it depends on what the content is.
I love the Wine and Chocolate one.
I like the modern wedding template. The fleur de lis patterns are super pretty!
Modern Portfolio for sure- it really allows the photo to stand out and make a statement on its own.
Oh, I think I like Rock On the best, but I better post my comment now because if I look again, I will change my mind because I sure like them all!
I love the Black and White backdrop as well as the simple full page bleed… DROOL.
Wine and Chocolate is nice – nice and classy!
I really like Bon Voyage. I would love to make a photo book of my trip with my mother to Berlin this year.
Ooops, I think my email was posted incorrectly above. THIS is the correct one!
I really like Simply White under the Everyday category on the custom path. Some of the styles aren’t matched to the text that describes them, though. I noticed this on the Seasonal tab.
Pretty Pink! I just adore pink!
I love Shutterfly! I did my daughter’s first birthday album using the “Oh Baby Girl”, but I think the next book I want to do is with the Good Times template. Very vibrant & cute!
I’m usually not a girly girl, but I have to go with Girls Rule.
For most of my photos I prefer “Modern Portfolio”. Simple neutral backgrounds really allow the photos to “speak” for themselves.
I like Modern Black, it’s clean looking and emphasizes the pictures.
I like the Oh So Mod template!
Modern Black. Nice and simple. I’d probably use the custom path now that they have it, though!
I am loving the “Confetti Splash” colors and chevron! Such a good giveaway, good luck to everyone!
Modern Black for sure!
I love the “Year of Us” template. That’s what most of our photos are so that would work wonderfully with my family.
watercolor wedding!
Modern Portfolio, although it was a tough call between any of the portfolio styles.
Noel – I haven’t made a Christmas book yet, and this would be perfect for a few years of Christmas pics.
Modern Black (or is it Portfolio?)is my standby favorite, although I do like the Happiness is… one too. Thanks for the chance to win!
I’m a sucker for all things cute and crazy, so the kids templates really appeal to me. However, my dream is to someday take a road trip, so I’m choosing Joy Ride! Thanks for the opportunity to win such a nifty prize
I like, Oh Baby Boy – it’s adorable!
Modern black is classic and I love that you can completely customize the layouts.
I like the Pet Projects one since we just got a dog and he needs his own book.
Confetti Splash for sure! So cute!
Modern Portfolio for sure!
i liked joy ride!
Happy Hauntings! I want to make a book with every Halloween costume my son has worn.
I like the simple white. Boring, maybe, but really shows off the pics.
I like the new Travel Snapshots template. =]
Modern Black is my favorite.
The custom path looks great!
I like the looks of Modern Black
The custom path looks really great. I like the modern black background–it really shows off the photos
The Modern Black template is my favorite.
Pet Project for sure! I love the colors and patterns and that they offer something special for the fuzzy members of our families.
Modern Black all the way!
I just made a book of family for my 6-month-old son and used the modern black and white template – super clean and shows off the photos. The book has been a lot of fun for him to see pictures of family – especially those that live far away.
I like Favorite Recipes. I’d love to make a cookbook of all our family favorites!
I’m feeling partial to the Something Special template as a great way to showcase all the old photos of my grandparents I recently scanned from old albums.
As a bit of a Christmas/Winter holiday addict, I really like the Noel themed book. Would love to win this package!
Modern Black!
I absolutely love the Wine and Chocolate template. Thanks for the giveaway!!
My favorite template is between “bon voyage” and “vintage travel”. I absolutely love getting up and going. I’m always exploring new places and a shutterfly book is perfect for capturing all those adventures
Last week I used Baby Girl, Modern to make a book for my daughter’s first birthday. Loved the colors and embellishments, girly but not overly so. Can’t wait to get it in the mail!
I love Bon voyage
I really like the birthday book ideas. I think they would make a fantastic gift for a loved one to celebrate many birthdays shared. I didn’t realize they were so affordable and so professional looking. I’m already thinking about upcoming birthdays.
I like the Black & White Backdrop – dark background helps emphasize the photos, subtle pattern keeps interest.
I love Fresh and Fun
I like the Dress-up Diva in the Custom Path. I love that ping and green combo! I would use it to make an album of the programs we’ve had at the library I work at.
Definitely Modern Black, I love Shutterfly!
It’s amazing that anyone can make a book so easily. Oh technology <3
I like the Modern Portfolio best. It’s nice and clean and keeps the focus on the photos.
I like the modern black but I’d probably go for the custom route if I made one. Technology <3
I know it doesn’t sound adventurous, but I like the black backgrounds so the photos really pop!
I like the Modern Portfolio, custom 12 x 12 book. It’s uncluttered, has an elegant layout and looks like photos would stand out against black pages.
Wow, what a great giveaway! I have never seen these type of photobooks before, they’re astounding, and they look simple to put together, I’d love a chance to win! My favorite template is the Harvest Hues, they mix with so many beautiful colors.
Thanks!
