I love the wine and chocolate theme.


Posted by: Catlyn L on January 15, 2012 at 4:31 PM

I really like the Planes Trains style! So cute and perfect for vacation books : )


Posted by: Yvette on January 13, 2012 at 5:44 PM

I like the clean templates the best...I think Modern Portfolio is my favorite!


Posted by: Dana on January 12, 2012 at 1:21 PM

I LOVE the custom path as there's flexibility in how to arrange the pictures. I'm a hands-on scrapbooker and am thinking about going digital. I'd really like to win this, thank you for sharing! Dana


Posted by: Yan on January 3, 2012 at 8:48 PM

I like the custom path because I am free to do what I want creatively on each page. I love using the bright color pages!


Posted by: Meghan Thimjon on December 27, 2011 at 3:52 AM

So hard to choose! Like the oh so mod gut then the recipe one is darling!
Happy New Year!


Posted by: Maureen on December 14, 2011 at 8:40 AM

I love the "Happiness is" template!


Posted by: Melissa on December 11, 2011 at 9:22 PM

I really like Modern Portfolio!


Posted by: Becky on December 8, 2011 at 2:48 AM

I like Simply White. It's versatile for all occasions and is simple. And white.


Posted by: Valerie on December 6, 2011 at 10:08 PM

I love the Pet Project...so many photos of my dogs that can be used!


Posted by: Penny on December 6, 2011 at 8:38 PM

I usually use Simple Path and Confetti Splash or Harvest Hues. I love putting together photo books for the family, but especially my in-laws. Since the can't get out as much, it is really nice to have a book that they can share at the retirement village. Makes it special. I also sent one to my granddaughter as a keepsake from her summer with us. It was a great "back to school, show and tell" item. I love Shutterfly!


Posted by: Elizabeth on December 6, 2011 at 8:34 PM

Hard to choose between the "Happiness Is" and the "Words of Faith" templates. I've made Shutterfly books before, and Custom Path is truly an awesome new feature. I'm so glad they added it!


Posted by: Carly on December 6, 2011 at 8:29 PM

Modern Portfolio!


Posted by: Jennie on December 6, 2011 at 7:56 PM

I like the custom path Noel the best.


Posted by: HerArtSheLoves on December 6, 2011 at 7:52 PM

Classy and classic, "Family Memories" template, works for all manner of photos.


Posted by: Dawn on December 6, 2011 at 7:50 PM

The vintage template is awesome! I love anything vintage and to see them all in one book that I can put corresponding photos in is amazing!


Posted by: J. Riggs on December 6, 2011 at 7:44 PM

Modern Black!
Although I saw several others I'd like to play with!


Posted by: Dorothy on December 6, 2011 at 7:43 PM

I like the Simple Path option, 8x8 size. I get overwhelmed with too many choices, so this would make ordering books so much easier. I like the smaller size of the 8x8, too, easy to handle, easy to store or ship. Thank you for hosting this give-away!


Posted by: Toni on December 6, 2011 at 7:41 PM

I really like the Modern Portfolio. Understated, but elegant. Nice.


Posted by: Kelsey on December 6, 2011 at 7:36 PM

I like Modern Portfolio best for a general photobook, although Favorite Recipes is a cute idea too.


Posted by: Michele Lang on December 6, 2011 at 7:30 PM

Summer Splash has way cute Autumnal patterned pages-love.


Posted by: Kathleen M. on December 6, 2011 at 7:07 PM

Style I like the best = Travel - Hit the Road


Posted by: Anna on December 6, 2011 at 7:04 PM

I love the simple, clean look of Modern Portfolio, I would totally make an awesome photo book with it!


Posted by: Shawna M on December 6, 2011 at 6:48 PM

I really like Rock On in the Custom palette. It is so sleek looking!


Posted by: Tracey on December 6, 2011 at 6:37 PM

I love the simple path with the noel style/template! I'm all about winter love right now! I'm in!


Posted by: Kandapa E on December 6, 2011 at 6:37 PM

Confetti Splash is my favorite!


Posted by: Kimberly Smith on December 6, 2011 at 6:34 PM

I just made 2 custom path photo books using the versatile classics theme.


Posted by: Charlotte Loftus on December 6, 2011 at 6:24 PM

I'm definitely in a winter mood waiting for snow to finally appear, so my favorite is Winter Wonderland. I love the bare trees and snowflakes. Makes me wanna stay home and sip cocoa.


Posted by: Lara on December 6, 2011 at 6:22 PM

Simply White. I am not a fan of the stickers and canned phrases. We like to write our own captions and often adapt the colors in the template to suit our tastes.


Posted by: Brandi M on December 6, 2011 at 6:21 PM

I love the Favorite Recipe template! Just sent 5 books out to grandparents... best (and easiest) present this year!


Posted by: Wendy on December 6, 2011 at 6:04 PM

I love the Top 10 Photos template. That's probably the one I'd use if I won!


Posted by: Michelle Weikert on December 6, 2011 at 6:02 PM

I love the Modern Portfolio via the custom path. I like to bring attention to the photos, rather than the backgrounds when I am making photobooks. Shutterfly is the best share site out there!


Posted by: Mary Goldthwaite-Gagne on December 6, 2011 at 6:01 PM

My favorite is the clean look of the Modern Portfolio!



Posted by: Bridget Ordich on December 6, 2011 at 6:00 PM

The rock on layout would make a wonderful graduation present for my son - the drummer!


Posted by: diana on December 6, 2011 at 5:54 PM

i like planes trains!


Posted by: rebecca on December 6, 2011 at 5:48 PM

i love Happy Hauntings! so cute!


Posted by: Maddie Carrola on December 6, 2011 at 5:45 PM

I love the idea of the Custom Path. Because it allows you to choose the arrangement of the photos, and has many options, Custom Path allows you to make your album uniqe. It gives you the chance to make yours different that everyone elses and makes it your own.


Posted by: giovanna carrola on December 6, 2011 at 5:39 PM

i love the modern portfolio layout! black is my favorite color!


Posted by: Kelli Carolan on December 6, 2011 at 5:38 PM

I love "Rock On"...I could make a really great portfolio for my husband's business with that layout!


Posted by: Joan Gross on December 6, 2011 at 5:36 PM

I love the styles for every occasion...very classy!!


Posted by: Marti on December 6, 2011 at 5:34 PM

I like the Custom Path so you can choose the pages you want to match the theme and style of your photos.


Posted by: nycdesigner on December 6, 2011 at 5:28 PM

I always use the custom templates because as a designer I can have complete control of the layout. I make high-res JPEGs in Photoshop using Shutterfly's downloadable guides. The quality is outstanding; especially the leather-bound hardcovers.


Posted by: Mariessa on December 6, 2011 at 5:28 PM

I love the modern black! I'd really love to take some new photos and see how they look in this layout as a book.

Also it would be nice to have a camera that is better quality than the camera on my phone.
Thanks for having the giveaway!


Posted by: George Liem on December 6, 2011 at 5:27 PM

modern black


Posted by: BearyAnn on December 6, 2011 at 5:27 PM

I like the "Modern Black" style. I was intrigued though that of the samples on that page, it was the only one without black backgrounds, yet called 'modern black'.


Posted by: Sara Carbaugh on December 6, 2011 at 5:26 PM

I really like the simplicity of the Simple Path books but I would love to play around with the custom options as well!


Posted by: Steph on December 6, 2011 at 5:22 PM

My favourite is 'Bon Voyage' :)


Posted by: Deb Mantooth on December 6, 2011 at 5:19 PM

I absolutley love the custom option :) Thanks for the chance to win the awesome prize :)


Posted by: Cathleen Bronsky on December 6, 2011 at 2:58 PM

I like the Custom, Winter Wonderland! Perfect to put together with a cup of hot chocolate!


Posted by: Marianna on December 5, 2011 at 6:35 PM

I like the modern black because the pictures pop, but i also love using the pictures as the background in the custom path.


Posted by: Neelima on December 2, 2011 at 3:04 PM

I like the Harvest hues most. Love the fall colors in it. I already have some photobooks from shutterfly with Modern black as my next fav.


Posted by: Elizabeth Laposata on December 1, 2011 at 5:02 PM

I like the Modern Black template the best. It is so simple, sleek and classy it would make any photo look professional.


Posted by: Judy Mabardy on November 30, 2011 at 7:11 PM

I like the Custom Path picture book. If you love being creative this layout and your options are perfect!


Posted by: Susan Wagner on November 30, 2011 at 9:40 AM

I love the Modern Black!
It would look great with
" Photos as the background " used in a book !


Posted by: Jennifer jones on November 30, 2011 at 8:01 AM

I think my favorite is the modern portfolio... I just made a photo album of our family's trip to Disney world and I used this one! I loved the features of the new custom photo path.


Posted by: Anna Flinchbaugh on November 28, 2011 at 8:57 PM

I love the zig zags in the Confetti Splash template. It would make such a fun family book for a wee one!


Posted by: Kim C. on November 28, 2011 at 12:50 PM

I like the Favorite Recipes with custom path. I love the embellishments, especially the bird.


Posted by: ErickaJo on November 27, 2011 at 8:46 PM

Harvest Hues is lovely. I was married in the fall, and over four years later I've yet to do anything with the pictures. Thank you!


Posted by: Reni on November 27, 2011 at 2:10 AM

Rock On is my favorite - the semigloss black pages really allow the photos to be in the spotlight.


Posted by: Tricia on November 26, 2011 at 5:14 PM

Harvest Hues is my favorite template, but I'd probably use the "custom path" to make my own photo book.


Posted by: charlotte L on November 25, 2011 at 8:16 PM

I like the custom photobooks...I have a touch choice between winter wonderland and the Modern Wedding. I like them both....if I have to decide on one.. it would be Winter wonderland.


Posted by: Elizabeth on November 25, 2011 at 3:24 PM

I love Happiness Is... and Bon Voyage. I'd probably make an album of travel photos and those would really allow the pictures to stand out.


Posted by: Vanessa on November 25, 2011 at 12:53 PM

I think the Modern Portfolio is the best one by far. t has such versatility and allows you to focus on the quality and content of the shot and less on the arrangement. Very nice!


Posted by: Caley C on November 25, 2011 at 11:29 AM

I love the Happiness Is template; it has such a great combination of modern style and whimsy.


Posted by: Melinda Richardson on November 22, 2011 at 6:36 PM

I'm new to this photography hobby, I never realized there were so many different things to do with photos. I like the Shutterfly site, can't remember ever seeing it before. I like the beach theme, we spend a week in Gulf Shores each year, this would be a great thing to do with my pictures!!


Posted by: Anna Driver-Bishop on November 21, 2011 at 11:50 PM

I adore Modern Wedding using custom path! Perfect for my upcoming May wedding!
Thanks so much, Anna, mattandanna at live dot


Posted by: Gretchen on November 21, 2011 at 8:48 PM

Since I've been meaning to order my wedding photo book from Shutterfly, I love the custom wedding black and white themed photo book!


Posted by: Nancy on November 21, 2011 at 8:23 PM

I love all the great & personalized ideas=meaningful gifts!


Posted by: Heather on November 21, 2011 at 7:51 PM

I like the baby boy, but I love the custom path feature. I'm a graphic designer and I love the ability to change everything on the page to make it look just the way I want it. I've ordered several books already and plan on making many more!


Posted by: Lauren on November 21, 2011 at 7:35 PM

I like the Simple White template.

I have made many books on Shutterfly and my favorite template is Amusement Park! Thanks for the giveaway.


Posted by: Julie on November 20, 2011 at 6:56 PM

Simple Path, Natural Neutrals is my choice. I love how easy it seems and like the "cleaness" of the style.


Posted by: Sydney on November 20, 2011 at 4:42 PM

Modern Portfolio is my favorite. I prefer the clean, simple templates.


Posted by: Ali on November 20, 2011 at 6:50 AM

Posted by: maggie on November 19, 2011 at 8:44 PM

I love how classic the modern black template is!


Posted by: katie on November 19, 2011 at 7:06 PM

Posted by: Mary on November 19, 2011 at 4:24 PM

Posted by: Tiffiny Duke on November 19, 2011 at 2:52 PM

I love the Travel Snapshots template. Thanks for the chance to win!


Posted by: Paula on November 19, 2011 at 11:47 AM

I like the Modern Portfolio. Great giveaway!


Posted by: ewild on November 19, 2011 at 12:37 AM

I liked Confetti Splash. It's nice and colorful. Summer Splash comes in a close second, though.


Posted by: Tammy on November 18, 2011 at 7:23 PM

I like the Noel template. There are cute back grounds and embellishments. I love the custom path option for the photobook. Its great that now you can use a photo for the background. Also you can move and adjust pictures how you want them and add text anywhere.


Posted by: Tammy on November 18, 2011 at 7:19 PM

I love the custom path option for the photobook. Its great that now you can use a photo for the background. Also you can move and adjust pictures how you want them and add text anywhere.


Posted by: Mary Taylor on November 18, 2011 at 7:00 PM

I love them all but Modern Black template is my favorite. Awesome contest.


Posted by: michele on November 18, 2011 at 6:46 PM

I like the custom or harvest hues. Thanks for the great giveaway!


Posted by: Heidi Lynn Grether Corcoran on November 18, 2011 at 5:49 PM

Love the Year of Us template. We had a baby this year and it would be great to be able to create a book with memories from the entire past year.


Posted by: Sylvia Flores on November 18, 2011 at 3:44 PM

Loving the modern black. So many options!


Posted by: Emily A. on November 18, 2011 at 2:05 PM

I am loving the new custom template! Very cool. My husband and I got married in February and we still haven't had our wedding photos printed. We're totally being slackers. I cant wait to finally print them using the custom template to print for all of the family members that were at the wedding.


Posted by: kb on November 18, 2011 at 1:35 PM

The modern portfolio has some really nice, neutral colors to use as a backdrop.


Posted by: Elis on November 18, 2011 at 1:28 PM

I like modern black.


Posted by: jeni on November 18, 2011 at 9:57 AM

The Custom Path is the best! You can do so many things with it and it won't just look like a template.


Posted by: Marsha on November 18, 2011 at 9:17 AM

Modern Portfolio!


Posted by: Laura S on November 17, 2011 at 9:53 PM

Happiness is...makes me want to spend a lazy morning with loved ones and then make a photo book to remember how much fun the simple things in life are!


Posted by: Melissa on November 17, 2011 at 8:49 PM

I love the words of faith style!


Posted by: katie on November 17, 2011 at 8:38 PM

I give the photo books to the grandparents on all the big holidays, but my favorite book right now is the recipes! I want to turn my dad's PDF's into a book, he'd love it.


Posted by: Betsy on November 17, 2011 at 7:49 PM

I really like the Modern Black. I think a sleek black background allows the photos to really shine.


Posted by: Melissa Carlson on November 17, 2011 at 6:15 PM

Modern Portfolio for sure. Simple!


Posted by: Megan on November 17, 2011 at 6:07 PM

My Recipes jumped out at me because I've been wanting to make a recipe book to collect the favorites that my parents and siblings make for special occasions.


Posted by: Katy Rush on November 17, 2011 at 5:49 PM

I like the Distinguished Textures photo book template from Shutterfly.


Posted by: Martha on November 17, 2011 at 5:42 PM

I love the Pet Project but also the Seasonal design.


Posted by: Allyson Evers on November 17, 2011 at 4:54 PM

I LOVE the Custom Path format 8 x 8! I am going to use the idea of recipies... what a great idea for family members to put together and print out multiple copies!


Posted by: Silvia on November 17, 2011 at 4:31 PM

I love the Happiness is!


Posted by: Brenna on November 17, 2011 at 2:03 PM

I love having control of what goes in my photo books, so the custom path is great! From what I saw, all of the templates look great, but I tend to like warmer hues, like the Harvest Hues.


Posted by: Amy Beam on November 17, 2011 at 1:48 PM

I like "the year of firsts" it seems like a perfect template for a gift for grandparents from my one year old.


Posted by: GM on November 17, 2011 at 1:43 PM

I like modern black the best.


Posted by: Jess on November 17, 2011 at 1:17 PM

The confetti splash template is so colorful and cheerful. I love it!!


Posted by: Luz B. on November 17, 2011 at 12:08 PM

Ooh! This is a lovely giveaway! I love the simplicity of the modern portfolio.


Posted by: dana archip on November 17, 2011 at 11:42 AM

I am a fan of the simple path! I just love the simplicity!


Posted by: Stephanie on November 17, 2011 at 11:37 AM

I really like the layout for the custom path/versatile classic style. A clean look and has a modern approach.


Posted by: Jo Centgraf on November 17, 2011 at 9:40 AM

I love 'Modern Wedding' we just got married, and I'd love to make some photo books as gifts. I love using Shutterfly, they make making photo books so easy!


Posted by: nicole w on November 17, 2011 at 9:07 AM

I really like My Recipes -- we just have a binder, and it'd be nice to put it all together in a nice looking book.


Posted by: Bambi on November 17, 2011 at 9:05 AM

I love Year of Firsts. So sweet and simple. I could see this making an amazing book for our unborn child. Not to mention our need for a new camera since ours got stolen in a break in.


Posted by: Samantha on November 17, 2011 at 9:05 AM

I love many of the new styles, and have used a few diff ones depending on my mood and the subject matter, but you can't go wrong with modern black!


Posted by: Kristi Ritter on November 17, 2011 at 8:02 AM

I love the Modern Black!


Posted by: Robin on November 17, 2011 at 6:07 AM

I liked Confetti (for a summer theme) and Confetti Splash (for my girls, esp. birthday parties).


Posted by: Darlene on November 17, 2011 at 4:52 AM

I love the custom option. Would love to do a book featuring my handcrafted items.

Thanks for organizing this great giveaway.


Posted by: lizabeth p on November 17, 2011 at 4:33 AM

Posted by: Eve epstein on November 16, 2011 at 9:52 PM

Posted by: Amy on November 16, 2011 at 9:29 PM

I love the Modern Black. Sleek & simple! It'd be perfect for a book for my super-modern boyfriend!


Posted by: Shelly M on November 16, 2011 at 9:11 PM

I like the simplicity of the Modern Portfolio template.


Posted by: EllenQ on November 16, 2011 at 7:37 PM

Modern Floral Wedding would be great for all sorts of things, not just weddings.


Posted by: Christine on November 16, 2011 at 7:31 PM

I think that the harvest hues is the best choice for a book that doesn't yet have an obvious theme. Although, I will say that I'm a sucker for the baby girl one too.


Posted by: Roxanne on November 16, 2011 at 7:10 PM

I like the soft yet bright blue and yellow pallet used in the Modern Floral Wedding style (it will be a wonderful way to showcase pictures of my spring wedding)!


Posted by: Beth on November 16, 2011 at 6:09 PM

I like the Vintage Travel Template. I am going on my first trip out of the country.


Posted by: Jane T on November 16, 2011 at 5:52 PM

I like so many of the photo books, but Happiness is the one I would chose.


Posted by: tess on November 16, 2011 at 5:38 PM

bon voyage, but all are great


Posted by: ansleybleu on November 16, 2011 at 4:30 PM

Yeah, Harvest Hues is really nice.


Posted by: sarah keil on November 16, 2011 at 4:03 PM

Posted by: Amanda Hurst on November 16, 2011 at 11:17 AM

I love the modern "simply white" template.


Posted by: Carmen on November 16, 2011 at 10:31 AM

I like the Versatile Classics book (black)


Posted by: Cathy Rochel on November 16, 2011 at 10:15 AM

I would love to use the "Vintage Travel" book templates. I love to make books about the trips I go on and that template would make a great travel book!


Posted by: Jennifer Berg on November 16, 2011 at 10:11 AM

I am loving the new customizable layouts, I sent a book last year to my mother in law and it was a huge hit. This year I plan on doing even more. I love these things. If I had to pick a template I would use "Hit the Road". We have so many vacation pics!


Posted by: Carly Finseth on November 16, 2011 at 9:28 AM

There are so many cute ones, but I think I like "Hit the Road" best. So great for documenting road trips!


Posted by: Carly Finseth on November 16, 2011 at 9:25 AM

There are so many choices, but I think if I had to choose just one I'd pick "Hit the Road." So cute for road trips!


Posted by: Abba on November 16, 2011 at 9:09 AM

I love the Planes and Trains template under Travel- it's so cute for a kid's first trip!


Posted by: Lauren P on November 16, 2011 at 9:00 AM

As a cat lover, I like Pet Project.


Posted by: Megan on November 16, 2011 at 8:33 AM

I love amusement park, this would make a great format for family photos.


Posted by: Betty McMillan on November 16, 2011 at 8:12 AM

The Photo as Background photo book would be a lovely way to display images. I stumbled across this and never realized you could do this! What a beautiful idea -- my photos are only in a picture box now. Would love to win a camera and incorporate my journeys into a book!


Posted by: theresa tarkington on November 16, 2011 at 8:10 AM

Love the new custom path option--we have ordered quite a few books from Shutterfly , using their own create option and heve been very pleased.Can't wait to try it out! The quality of the work is exceptional !


Posted by: Ashley Chasse on November 16, 2011 at 7:53 AM

I really like Modern Portfolio. Showcasing photos on a black background is such a classic, clean look. Very nice.


Posted by: Lauren on November 16, 2011 at 7:46 AM

I love the Modern Black and the Modern Portfolio templates - clean and classic!

I really like the Simple Path, but I think it all depends on the pictures. I would love to make a book from our photos of our Route 66 trip!


Posted by: Annie Hutchins on November 16, 2011 at 7:34 AM

I like the Everyday book. I like the simple style. I have used Shutterfly in the past and it is simple to use and the results are beautiful


Posted by: Bubba Harmon on November 16, 2011 at 7:32 AM

We always seem to be on the road so of course I would choose "Hit the Road"


Posted by: Angie S. on November 16, 2011 at 6:33 AM

I almost always use the Modern Black Theme. It really makes my photos pop!


Posted by: Mary C on November 16, 2011 at 6:21 AM

I really like the Modern Black. Nice and simple!


Posted by: M. Bridges on November 16, 2011 at 6:18 AM

I am loving the "Happiness Is" template. I love the color palette and the dandelion is so sweet. Perfect!


Posted by: Jeneen on November 16, 2011 at 6:18 AM

I like the new custom path a lot! My favorite right now is "Happiness Is" but I think I may have to use the "Favorite Recipes" and get started on that project!


Posted by: Evin Cooper on November 16, 2011 at 6:11 AM

boyhood! suits my boy perfectly :)


Posted by: Shannon Kennedy on November 16, 2011 at 6:05 AM

Coming into the holiday season and since it snowed here in chilly MN yesterday, I'm very drawn to the Winter Wonderland template. Thank you for the opportunity!


Posted by: Kelly on November 16, 2011 at 6:04 AM

I like the Versatile Classics- doesn't distract from your (hopefully) awesome photography skills.


Posted by: ~Heather on November 16, 2011 at 5:59 AM

The 'Modern Black' looks mighty good (as does that delicious camera)!


Posted by: Nogeeshik on November 16, 2011 at 5:55 AM

Natural Neutrals!


Posted by: KT Cowden on November 16, 2011 at 5:54 AM

I love the Bon Voyage template!


Posted by: Emily on November 16, 2011 at 5:51 AM

I would use 'Hit the Road' for sure!


Posted by: Candace Henderson on November 16, 2011 at 5:49 AM

I love the top ten and the year of us books! I usually do a picture book of significant years and this makes it much easier and much cooler than the ones I have! GREAT STUFF!


Posted by: Emma on November 16, 2011 at 5:45 AM

I like the basic black. You can't go wrong with black!


Posted by: Kelly Beckman-Crabtree on November 16, 2011 at 5:40 AM

I really like the Rock On template!


Posted by: Jen on November 16, 2011 at 5:33 AM

Love the Modern Portfolio


Posted by: Becky on November 16, 2011 at 5:14 AM

I love the look of the Modern Black photo album. The pictures on black really pop.


Posted by: Roxanne beinart on November 16, 2011 at 4:43 AM

I like the simple path!


Posted by: Gail on November 16, 2011 at 4:36 AM

I Like Guestbook, with its bright colors. It would be so sweet for photos of my little son!


Posted by: Cinda on November 16, 2011 at 4:31 AM

It's really hard to choose but I do love the custom path in versatile classics.


Posted by: kathyS on November 16, 2011 at 4:23 AM

Modern Black, love the flow


Posted by: Wilma Nenninger on November 16, 2011 at 4:14 AM

love the "hit the road" travel book


Posted by: Suzanne on November 16, 2011 at 3:42 AM

I like Modern Black and Simply White: they let the photos speak for themselves.


Posted by: quinn on November 16, 2011 at 3:06 AM

"Hit the Road"!


Posted by: Crystal on November 16, 2011 at 2:16 AM

They are all nice! I like Summer Splash


Posted by: Debbi on November 16, 2011 at 2:09 AM

I love the Modern Black template. I'd do it myself if it didn't suck so much ink from my printer!


Posted by: Dorothea on November 16, 2011 at 1:21 AM

I'm lovin' Shutterfly's "Winter Wonderland" photo book template!


Posted by: cthulhulovesme on November 16, 2011 at 12:00 AM

I'd rock the Simply White. It's just so... clean.


Posted by: Andrew on November 15, 2011 at 11:43 PM

I like the Winter Wonderland template.


Posted by: Megan on November 15, 2011 at 10:22 PM

Rock On is my favorite!


Posted by: Jane on November 15, 2011 at 10:19 PM

I love the Versatile Classics style, for all my random pictures!


Posted by: Vienna Vogelezang on November 15, 2011 at 10:14 PM

I like the Bon Voyage template. Perfect for my pics from India!


Posted by: candleashes on November 15, 2011 at 9:55 PM

I like Natural Neutrals. Simple and fun with just enough color.


Posted by: Octavia on November 15, 2011 at 9:24 PM

I have always liked the look of Modern Portfolio and Modern Black. Thanks for the offer!


Posted by: Carah Kristel on November 15, 2011 at 8:32 PM

I like "Modern Portfolio" the best.


Posted by: Panhia Yang on November 15, 2011 at 7:36 PM

I am loving the "Happiness Is.." template. Simple -- yet has a ton of possibilities. Cripes, I've gotta start taking some pictures!


Posted by: Nancy M. on November 15, 2011 at 7:03 PM

Modern Portfolio would be perfect for my wedding photos!


Posted by: Eva Scott on November 15, 2011 at 6:50 PM

I love the Words of Faith book!!!


Posted by: Brandi Eskesen on November 15, 2011 at 6:50 PM

I love the portfolio template. Love Shutterfly!


Posted by: Jessica on November 15, 2011 at 6:40 PM

I'm intrigued by the neutral natural template - nice and classic!


Posted by: MS Laura on November 15, 2011 at 6:25 PM

I like Rock On the best. It makes the photos really stand out.


Posted by: MS Laura on November 15, 2011 at 6:23 PM

I really like the simplicity of Rock On. I think it makes the photos look fantastic!


Posted by: Jeannie Bass on November 15, 2011 at 6:13 PM

My choice is "Modern Portfolio." As an amateur photographer, any format that focuses on the photograph - really makes them POP - gets my vote!


Posted by: Aimee La Rue on November 15, 2011 at 6:13 PM

"Hit the Road" really captures that road trip feeling.


Posted by: 5 orange potatoes on November 15, 2011 at 5:49 PM

Simply White is my favorite. What a great giveaway, thanks!


Posted by: 5 orange potatoes on November 15, 2011 at 5:47 PM

Simply White is my favorite. What a great giveaway, thanks!


Posted by: 5 orange potatoes on November 15, 2011 at 5:45 PM

Simply white is my favorite! What a fantastic giveaway!


Posted by: Wehaf on November 15, 2011 at 5:30 PM

The Bon Voyage design is understated and lovely, and perfect for the travel book I need to put together!


Posted by: MIchelle on November 15, 2011 at 5:28 PM

I love the Favorite Recipes one I would really love to make one, I hope I can win.


Posted by: Lora Wikle on November 15, 2011 at 5:24 PM

I like the Bon VOyage because I have a card full of cruise pics I need to get printed. =)
Ordinally, I would like the simplicity of the Modern Black.


Posted by: Cindy Guzman on November 15, 2011 at 5:10 PM

I love Happiness Is! So beautiful. :)


Posted by: Melissa on November 15, 2011 at 5:03 PM

Love the Harvest Hues style for when our little one is born in June!


Posted by: Betty on November 15, 2011 at 4:55 PM

I like the Modern Black design in the Simple Path template.


Posted by: Melissa Aellos on November 15, 2011 at 4:51 PM

I love the Mid-Century Modern feel of the Custom Path > Birthday > Birthday Blowout photo book template!


Posted by: Adriana on November 15, 2011 at 4:36 PM

I'm not getting married any time soon, but Oh Baby Girl gives a wedding books such a cute feel.


Posted by: Isabel on November 15, 2011 at 4:08 PM

I love Shutterfly's photo books! I made one for my wedding photos and it turned out beautifully. My favorite template depends on the application... but in general, I tend to go for really simple templates like Simply White or Modern Black!


Posted by: Liberty on November 15, 2011 at 3:58 PM

Oh - I can't decide between Happiness Is and Travel Snapshots. So many pretties. =D


Posted by: Vanessa L. on November 15, 2011 at 3:54 PM

I think I like the classic black the best!


Posted by: Amy Byrne-Henderson on November 15, 2011 at 3:31 PM

I love the "Love Story" template! It would be a perfect way to combine our engagement pictures and wedding pictures (married 09.10.11) into one beautiful book.


Posted by: Shannon on November 15, 2011 at 3:20 PM

So many wonderful templates! But I love the Winter Wonderland the best.


Posted by: hilary on November 15, 2011 at 3:16 PM

I like "Modern Black"!


Posted by: Arrakis on November 15, 2011 at 3:15 PM

I'm really liking the Custom Path style. I want to make a book for my wedding and this style is exactly like what I was envisioning in my head before I even looked at the Shutterfly site! I'm liking either the Modern Wedding or the Modern Floral Wedding styles for my summer garden wedding (2 years ago... oops)! I did a book for my daughter when she was born and we love it!


Posted by: Katherine on November 15, 2011 at 3:14 PM

I like the "hit the road" template!


Posted by: Melissa Thomas on November 15, 2011 at 2:57 PM

I like the Natural Neutrals. But I've also used the Custom Path. Love Shutterfly.


Posted by: Liz on November 15, 2011 at 2:42 PM

I love the Year of Us photo book. I am a huge fan of Shutterfly's photo books and love to make them for my family. What an amazing giveaway!!!


Posted by: Joy on November 15, 2011 at 2:31 PM

I love Shutterfly books, they make great gifts. Right now, I'm planning a modern black book filled with lots of black and white photos of my son.


Posted by: Christine on November 15, 2011 at 2:24 PM

Modern Black is my favorite!


Posted by: Cynthia on November 15, 2011 at 2:09 PM

I love Wedding Damask


Posted by: Emily on November 15, 2011 at 1:59 PM

Simply White for me.


Posted by: Melody on November 15, 2011 at 1:59 PM

I really like the Modern Portfolio and the Modern black styles. Very clean, and able to showcase photos quite well.


Posted by: Laura on November 15, 2011 at 1:52 PM

I like Modern portfolio and joy ride.


Posted by: Jillian Vandegrift on November 15, 2011 at 1:44 PM

I like the Confetti Splash! great for kids albums.


Posted by: Lisa on November 15, 2011 at 1:39 PM

Vintage Travel!


Posted by: jenn a.f. on November 15, 2011 at 1:16 PM

I like the "Rock On" Portfolio


Posted by: Bethe on November 15, 2011 at 1:14 PM

I can't decide between Modern Portfolio and Versatile Classics - but I will definitely choose something neutral. That way, the colors in the photo really pop, and I think it will be less dated as the years go on. We'll be able to pull it out and look at it and not feel so old (haha!).


Posted by: Ame on November 15, 2011 at 1:10 PM

I think it's because I'm so happy about the holiday season, but I like Noel! It's got the slightly kitschy holiday look to it!


Posted by: Heather Hernandez on November 15, 2011 at 1:06 PM

I love the Amusement Park design template in the Custom Path. The stickers and frames help create a fun and bright page layout. And Shutterfly has made it so easy to add more backgrounds and stickers to their established designs. I might end up using this design for my photos from the fair.


Posted by: Jenny on November 15, 2011 at 1:02 PM

I've ordered several of these photo books and I think my favorite is still classic black. It really highlights the photos.


Posted by: Gloria Cardenas on November 15, 2011 at 12:52 PM

Pop Rocks!


Posted by: Tricia on November 15, 2011 at 12:51 PM

I love the Versatile Classic!


Posted by: Lisa on November 15, 2011 at 12:43 PM

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!


Posted by: Michele on November 15, 2011 at 12:41 PM

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.


Posted by: Tina C. on November 15, 2011 at 12:33 PM

I know it doesn't sound adventurous, but I like the black backgrounds so the photos really pop!


Posted by: Mel on November 15, 2011 at 12:31 PM

I like the modern black but I'd probably go for the custom route if I made one. Technology <3


Posted by: Evan on November 15, 2011 at 12:29 PM

I like the Modern Portfolio best. It's nice and clean and keeps the focus on the photos.


Posted by: Mel on November 15, 2011 at 12:27 PM

It's amazing that anyone can make a book so easily. Oh technology <3


Posted by: Chelsea on November 15, 2011 at 12:27 PM

Definitely Modern Black, I love Shutterfly!


Posted by: Donna Worth on November 15, 2011 at 12:22 PM

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.


Posted by: Cyn on November 15, 2011 at 12:12 PM

I love Fresh and Fun


Posted by: David on November 15, 2011 at 12:12 PM

I like the Black & White Backdrop - dark background helps emphasize the photos, subtle pattern keeps interest.


Posted by: Asia on November 15, 2011 at 12:10 PM

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. :)


Posted by: Randi on November 15, 2011 at 12:07 PM

I love Bon voyage


Posted by: Emily on November 15, 2011 at 12:02 PM

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!


Posted by: kat on November 15, 2011 at 12:00 PM

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


Posted by: Jenny Doriot on November 15, 2011 at 11:55 AM

I absolutely love the Wine and Chocolate template. Thanks for the giveaway!!


Posted by: carolyn on November 15, 2011 at 11:52 AM

Modern Black!


Posted by: Julie Poole on November 15, 2011 at 11:47 AM

As a bit of a Christmas/Winter holiday addict, I really like the Noel themed book. Would love to win this package! :)


Posted by: Erin on November 15, 2011 at 11:28 AM

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.


Posted by: Cari on November 15, 2011 at 11:27 AM

I like Favorite Recipes. I'd love to make a cookbook of all our family favorites!


Posted by: Tracy on November 15, 2011 at 11:21 AM

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.


Posted by: Heather on November 15, 2011 at 11:20 AM

Modern Black all the way!


Posted by: Jessica on November 15, 2011 at 11:17 AM

Pet Project for sure! I love the colors and patterns and that they offer something special for the fuzzy members of our families.


Posted by: TK on November 15, 2011 at 11:16 AM

The Modern Black template is my favorite.


Posted by: Micah on November 15, 2011 at 11:16 AM

The custom path looks really great. I like the modern black background--it really shows off the photos


Posted by: John on November 15, 2011 at 11:10 AM

I like the looks of Modern Black


Posted by: megs on November 15, 2011 at 11:08 AM

The custom path looks great!


Posted by: Betsy on November 15, 2011 at 11:07 AM

Modern Black is my favorite.


Posted by: Cindy Carlson on November 15, 2011 at 11:04 AM

I like the new Travel Snapshots template. =]


Posted by: susan on November 15, 2011 at 11:03 AM

I like the simple white. Boring, maybe, but really shows off the pics.


Posted by: Amber on November 15, 2011 at 10:55 AM

Happy Hauntings! I want to make a book with every Halloween costume my son has worn.


Posted by: laurel on November 15, 2011 at 10:54 AM

i liked joy ride!


Posted by: Rebecca M on November 15, 2011 at 10:54 AM

Modern Portfolio for sure!


Posted by: Candice on November 15, 2011 at 10:54 AM

Confetti Splash for sure! So cute!


Posted by: kristen on November 15, 2011 at 10:52 AM

I like the Pet Projects one since we just got a dog and he needs his own book.


Posted by: Krysta on November 15, 2011 at 10:51 AM

Modern black is classic and I love that you can completely customize the layouts.


Posted by: Queta on November 15, 2011 at 10:50 AM

I like, Oh Baby Boy - it's adorable!


Posted by: Belinda on November 15, 2011 at 10:35 AM

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 :-)


Posted by: Kristen on November 15, 2011 at 10:33 AM

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!


Posted by: Lisa E. on November 15, 2011 at 10:28 AM

Noel - I haven't made a Christmas book yet, and this would be perfect for a few years of Christmas pics.


Posted by: Cheryl on November 15, 2011 at 10:25 AM

Modern Portfolio, although it was a tough call between any of the portfolio styles.


Posted by: Katie on November 15, 2011 at 10:22 AM

watercolor wedding!


Posted by: Liza on November 15, 2011 at 10:22 AM

I love the "Year of Us" template. That's what most of our photos are so that would work wonderfully with my family.


Posted by: Bree on November 15, 2011 at 10:19 AM

Modern Black for sure!


Posted by: Britney Haberl on November 15, 2011 at 10:18 AM

I am loving the "Confetti Splash" colors and chevron! Such a good giveaway, good luck to everyone!


Posted by: Alex on November 15, 2011 at 10:18 AM

Modern Black. Nice and simple. I'd probably use the custom path now that they have it, though!


Posted by: Erin @ GoBananasBlog on November 15, 2011 at 10:17 AM

I like the Oh So Mod template!


Posted by: Eric on November 15, 2011 at 10:14 AM

I like Modern Black, it's clean looking and emphasizes the pictures.


Posted by: kris on November 15, 2011 at 10:13 AM

For most of my photos I prefer "Modern Portfolio". Simple neutral backgrounds really allow the photos to "speak" for themselves.


Posted by: Rachel K E on November 15, 2011 at 10:12 AM

I'm usually not a girly girl, but I have to go with Girls Rule.


Posted by: Danielle on November 15, 2011 at 10:12 AM

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!


Posted by: Nicole on November 15, 2011 at 10:10 AM

Pretty Pink! I just adore pink!


Posted by: Lou on November 15, 2011 at 10:10 AM

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.


Posted by: Roberta Lander Oden on November 15, 2011 at 10:07 AM

Ooops, I think my email was posted incorrectly above. THIS is the correct one!


Posted by: Dee Leitner on November 15, 2011 at 10:06 AM

I really like Bon Voyage. I would love to make a photo book of my trip with my mother to Berlin this year.


Posted by: Sarah on November 15, 2011 at 10:05 AM

Wine and Chocolate is nice - nice and classy!


Posted by: Roberta Lander Oden on November 15, 2011 at 10:05 AM

I love the Black and White backdrop as well as the simple full page bleed... DROOL.


Posted by: LeeAnn Wilmot on November 15, 2011 at 10:03 AM

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!


Posted by: Kylie D on November 15, 2011 at 10:03 AM

Modern Portfolio for sure- it really allows the photo to stand out and make a statement on its own. :)


Posted by: SeamstressErin on November 15, 2011 at 10:03 AM

I like the modern wedding template. The fleur de lis patterns are super pretty!


Posted by: carolyn c on November 15, 2011 at 10:02 AM

I love the Wine and Chocolate one.


Posted by: Audie on November 15, 2011 at 10:01 AM

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.


Posted by: Erich Campbell on November 15, 2011 at 10:00 AM

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! ;)


Posted by: Lisa on November 15, 2011 at 9:55 AM

Hit the Road would be perfect for all my travel photos. I also love Modern Portfolio for day to day pictures.


Posted by: Kris on November 15, 2011 at 9:55 AM

Modern Portfolio - because when you tell someone that you make stuff you'd better be ready to show them pictures.


Posted by: Kaela Champlin on November 15, 2011 at 9:55 AM

I love the "travel snapshots" custom path style template. The backgrounds look like old maps. This would make a really beautiful travel photo journal.


Posted by: Jana Demetral on November 15, 2011 at 9:54 AM

I like the Natural Neutrals! So perfect!


Posted by: Margaret S. on November 15, 2011 at 9:54 AM

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.


Posted by: Maria on November 15, 2011 at 9:54 AM

I like the Travel Snapshots template -- it'd go great with all our travel photos :)


Posted by: Samantha Kramer on November 15, 2011 at 9:54 AM

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!!


Posted by: cassandra on November 15, 2011 at 9:53 AM

My favorite template has to be the basic black. :) Though it was hard to choose!


Posted by: Erica on November 15, 2011 at 9:52 AM

Hmmm...Probably Modern Black or Versatile Classics. It really would depend on the purpose/content of the book, though.


Posted by: Jenny Bolech on November 15, 2011 at 9:52 AM

Wow they've got a lot of great new options since i last made a book! I really love the Family Memories template :)


Posted by: Bonnie on November 15, 2011 at 9:48 AM

I like the modern black--sort of makes you feel like you're ina dark room watching home videos.

Here's hoping!


Posted by: Kerry on November 15, 2011 at 9:44 AM

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!


Posted by: Belinda Penaloza on November 15, 2011 at 9:41 AM

I really like the custom option, however, of the pre-made templates, Confetti Splash warms my heart.


Posted by: Nicole Hillstead on November 15, 2011 at 9:39 AM

I love the Confetti Splash! great colors :)


Posted by: Chris on November 15, 2011 at 9:37 AM

Hmm. It's a toss up between Modern Black and Happiness Is...


Posted by: Kat on November 15, 2011 at 9:36 AM

Modern Portfolio!


Posted by: M Blalock on November 15, 2011 at 9:34 AM

I like the ABC's template the best!


Posted by: Jessica L'Heuruex on November 15, 2011 at 9:34 AM

I love the Rock On template - I'm a sucker for the black background - it simply makes pictures pop!


Posted by: Constance Nelson on November 15, 2011 at 9:32 AM

I like the Shutterfly Harvest Hues photo book template. I love the neutral tones and the nrandom arrangement of the photos.
