This is Life Changing

I know, I know, the post title seems a bit melodramatic and all...but I gottatellya...this is AMAZING! I love scrapbooking but hate the mess and all the cost involved and all the time it takes! Let's be frank...our time is at a premium and while I want to have memories of all the fun things I've done with my kids, it's a little more important to me that I actually make time to do those things in the first place.
Now, there's a website that allows you to publish adorable scrapbook pages, have them printed and mailed to you for only $7.50 PER PAGE. No, you did not read wrong. Can you believe it? They have super cute templates to choose from (including some done by our friends at Boatman Geller) and all you have to do is plug in your pictures and text. It couldn't be easier.
Now until tax day you can enter the code APRIL08 at checkout and get a free page if you've already ordered four.
The website is How Fast They Grow.


Here are some of my completed pages...






Now...get to work!

Those pages are SO SO cute! And no mess. I love it! I do enjoy scrapbooking, but with two little ones, it is so hard to find the time. Thanks for sharing! I'm going to look into it....and they are adorable children. I love the name Reagan...

Thanks for the tip! I love to scrapbook, but it is SO time consuming. This is definitely the way to go. Plus, by the time you buy supplies, you have spent $7.50 anyway.

I didn't know your daughters name is Reagan! That is my favorite girls name. WHEN (not if) I have a daughter, I want to use that name.

Those are so cute! If only I did not have loads of scrapbooking supplies, I would do it. Is it bad that I have not done my wedding scrapbook yet? Oops.

I love to scrapbook but haven't had the time to pick it up. I also love Shutterfly books but they seem better for a specific trip or theme rather than every day book. I checked out the website you suggested and LOVE it. So much faster and easy to mix in with other pages I do on my own. Love the title pages especially! Thanks for the tip!
