blurb giveaway!

Blurb is one of my absolute favorite online vendors and I am so excited about this giveaway! This will be my third giveaway with Blurb and I’m so excited. I know that I love Blurb and from your responses when I do the giveaways, I know that you all love Blurb.

To me, Blurb is the best bookmaking company out there. I have two Blurb books at home and I’m getting ready to make my third. I’m going to make a book out of all of Hudson’s first birthday photos, so I can have them all in one place like with our wedding books and engagement photo book.

This week, Blurb is going to give away 10 bookmaking codes for $39.95 to Blue-Eyed Bride readers! You can make a pretty sweet book for $39.95! Or you can put that $39.95 toward your large Blurb purchase.

Here is a link to a video that shows how to use Blurb BookSmart.

Some examples of Blurb books for your viewing pleasure.

To enter, just leave a comment on this post telling me what kind of book you’d like to make!

The winner will be announced at the end of the week.

    Ooh! Let’s see…the in-laws winter in Florida and summer (for a tiny part of the summer) in Maine and they miss it desperately when they’re down south. I’d love to do up a book for them to look at throughout the winter when they’re missing the great white north!

  2. says

    I love Blurb! I’m actually in the process of making a book with Blurb for my daughter’s 1st birthday. I also love to make vacation-themed books and share them with family members.

  3. Crystal says

    I would love to be able to make a wedding album!! I’m getting married in October and my budget is small, so this would be perfect for me! I would be able to make something that I can keep forever!

  4. says

    I used blurb to make our wedding book, and I’d looooove to win this!! I’d use it to make a book of our Europe Vacation pictures!!

  5. Katie says

    My husband and I have been meaning to get started on our wedding album… (we got married in May)… We would love to use Blurb to make our album! Actually we were planning on making books for our parents as well so Blurb books would be perfect…

  6. Lindsay says

    It’s been a year since we got married and we still haven’t had our wedding albums made! I would make a great parent album with this.

  7. Katy R. says

    I’d love to FINALLY put together a book of our engagement and wedding weekend photographs….almost three years! Ack! 🙂

  8. says

    I’d like to make a book for my little sister, who is headed to college in three weeks. I’ve been keeping a list of thoughts and tips for college, and it would be fun to compile them all in one place with lots of memories and pictures of us.

  9. says

    How cool! I have had several people tell me I should publish my blog stories. This would be perfect for making a hard copy of those for my PDub!

  10. Nicole says

    Love Blurb! We are going on our first European vacation next month and a Blurb book would be a wonderful keepsake of the trip!

  11. says

    I’ve never used Blurb before, but it looks really neat! I would make a book for my Mom of pictures of her and me. I currently live at home with my family (I’m in college), but I’m about to leave on a year-long mission trip, so I think it would be cool. 🙂

  12. Dylan says

    So cute! I’d love to make one of the trips my boyfriend and I have been on over the past three years – and I need a new coffee table book!! 🙂

  13. Niki says

    I’ve been married 2 years and still haven’t scrapbooked our wedding photos! So that is definitely the book I’d make!

  14. jcristg says

    Pick me! Pick me!
    I am making Matt a book of our dating history as a gift for the wedding. I am up to 2009 and almost finished — this giveaway is perfectly timed!

  15. Sarah says

    I just got married and would love to create a book of our professional photos that will not be in our professional album – along with the chance to include some candids!

  16. says

    I love it! I have been wanting to make a blog book with blurb so this would be the perfect opportunity to kick start it!!! Thanks so much!! 🙂

  17. says

    Oh, I have THREE books I need to make. Engagement pics, wedding pics and now a book of baby pics! I’ve been meaning to do this for three years … winning the giveaway would be just the jump start I need!

  18. says

    Winning this Blurb giveaway would be just the kick in the pants I need to make albums for our wedding and honeymoon pictures. A year and a half later, I think it’s about time! Thanks for the great giveaway!

  19. Letitia says

    I would love to finally complete our wedding album as our one year anniversary is fast approaching in October.

  20. says

    I’d make a book from our recent trip to New England (Maine, NH, Vermont, Lake Placid (NY), and Montreal). I’m currently posting all the photos on our blog, but I can’t wait to make a book with all of them!

  21. says

    I have been dying to make a book of all of my travels with my boyfriend… instead, I just have an overflowing box of photos waiting to be shoved into target-bought albums. blurb is SUCH a better alternative, I love this giveaway!

  22. says

    I would finally get around to doing my wedding album! We’re nearing our 2nd anniversary, and I still haven’t done anything with the photos. Shameful!

  23. Gabby says

    Due to distance we haven’t been able to visit my grandparents in over 20 years, my mother’s dad passed away last month and we decided to bring my grandma back with us to spend a few months with us. Since we don’t know how long we have with her or if after this time we will ever be able to spend anymore time with her, we have been doing alot of weekend mini trips and taking tons of photos to have our time with her preserved. If I were to win this prize I would put those photos 🙂

  24. says

    I’ve been dying to try Blurb! One of my “to do’s” for the summer is to make a book documenting my daughter Madelyn’s first year. Since I didn’t do a formal baby book, I’d love to put together a photo book with all of her sweet little moments 🙂

  25. Brooke says

    I would love to do a book of my son’s first year of life. I have taken so many pictures and they are on my computer and it would be wonderful to make a book to one day show him .

  26. says

    I’d looooooove to win! I made my first Blurb for our wedding-we used it as a Guest Book and I love flipping through it! I actually have a few Blurbs that need to be made: 1 with our honeymoon pictures, which are beautiful and just sitting in files in our computers, unused. I’d love to have a beautiful book that I can open and remember our special trip! Another Blurb I want to make is of wedding pictures. It will be a while until our photog puts an album together for us, and I’d love to have some of our gorgeous pics in a Blurb that I can keep on our coffee table! I have my fingers crossed that this might be my first giveaway win!!! Thanks so much for hosting, Erin!

  27. says

    I would probably do one with our honeymoon photos (since almost three years later, I still haven’t created a book or album from the trip.)

  28. says

    I just celebrated my first wedding anniversary and I would love to make a book of our first year together! The wedding, honeymoon, and all other fun things that have happened along the way!

  29. Ainslee Barnes Carnahan says

    Oh – I LOVE THESE BOOKS! I would make a book of Barnes! (shocker)! I think this would be a great way to document his first year!!

  30. says

    My daughter, Merrill, is 18 months old, and I would love to make a book of her first year, capped off by a big section from her first birthday party. She’s such a fun, busy baby, the hardest part would be deciding which photos to use!

  31. says

    I want to make one of two books: College World Series championship book from my trip to the champsionship, OR a book fo my most recent youth conference trip to Purdue, IN. Both were lifetime-type events that I’ll never forget, so I want to put them in books to help me never forget. A Blurb book is exactly what I was looking for anway!

  32. says

    I need to get caught up on my organization of family photos and this would be a great excuse. I take so many photos of my Hudson and I have been looking for a great way to preserve them.
    Thanks for sharing. Even if I don’t win – I am going to check Blurb out.

    Your big boy Hudson is getting so big. It is hard to believe that they grow up so fast.
    I love the pictures of Hudson talking to himslef in the mirror. Adorable!

  33. Amanda says

    I’d love to make a book of our non-pro wedding pictures to accompany our pro-pictures. Our wedding was just a month ago and our friends caught so many funny moments. I’d love to have them organized and ready to share!

  34. says

    I would make a blurb book including all of my pregnancy weekly pictures and move all the way in to my baby’s first year… so sweet!

  35. says

    OMG…this is perfect timing…well, if I win anyway 🙂 I’m right in the middle of making a Blurb wedding album. I didn’t get one with my photographer. After looking at a bunch of different options, I finally decided to make one with Blurb. I’ve been working on it for several weeks trying to get it perfect. I’m probably only half way done with it, and so far, I’m soooo pleased with how it’s turning out!!

  36. says

    I love Blurb too! Such a great way to keep all of your photos in one place– and a great way to share a special moment with others. We have done them for birthdays, trips, etc. and friends love flipping through them. I’d love to make one for our new baby’s BIRTH day; or possibly of our upcoming family vacay. Such a great giveaway! Thanks BEB!

  37. says

    I would love to have a blurb book to be able to do a book to comemorate the boys 2nd birthday. I would love to do a section with them individually and then together to show the special bond between twin brothers!

  38. cest yeux bruns says

    I’d totally make a book of our first year of marriage – start with some honeymoon pictures and end with our anniversary photo shoot session!

    Thanks for hosting the giveaway!

  39. Annika says

    I’d love to make a Blurb book for either my 4 dogs OR my experience training for and completing a 100 mile bike ride around Lake Tahoe to benefit cancer patients.

  40. says

    I would love to make a book about the recent mission trip I took to Brazil… or maybe a book about all the trips I have taken to see my best friend in Arizona over the last 5 years!

  41. says

    Hi Erin! I’m a Blurb fanatic, too! I would love to use the gift certificate to make a book for my parents and my boyfriend’s parents of our first year on our own. We graduated college last spring and have been living 15 hours away from home ever since. I know they miss us terribly (and vice versa!), and I’d love to use this book to share all of the adventures we’ve had over the last year. Thanks for another great giveaway!

  42. Jackie Ellis says

    I’d like to make a book for my daughter who is moving away to college in three weeks – I’m not sure if I’d try to compile the last eighteen years or graduation week or her soccer career. Any of the three would make an awesome book.

  43. says

    My fiance Clint and I are getting married March 26, 2011. We were high school sweethearts, first started dating when we were 15, and have already been together the better part of 10 years. I would LOVE to make a book to catalog our relationship together over the years- dating back to those embarrassing homecoming/prom photos, then through Alabama football games and sorority parties in college, and everything in between all the way up to now. We have had so many wonderful experiences together and it would be fabulous to capture those memories in one place.

  44. Sarah says

    Ohhhhh, I have never heard of Blurb before. But I can’t WAIT to explore the site. I make a photo book of my family each year and now I can try a different company!!!

  45. Amy says

    Awesome giveaway! Thank you so much! I would love to a book about our two boys, we are getting ready to have our third child in the Fall, and it would be nice to have memories of the boys right now, before our family gets bigger, and then do another book in the future of the three kiddos.

  46. says

    YAY! This giveaway is so perfect right now! On my to-do list for today I have “create blurb books.” Yes books as I need to make two of them! This would help me out a ton!! Great giveaway! 🙂

  47. Ginny says

    I would love to make a Blurb book of pictures from my golden retriever puppy’s first year–I took so many pictures! She is two now and I have yet to make a book! Thanks for the great giveaway 🙂

  48. Ashley M says

    I’d love to make a book from my Europe trip from summer 2008! I lOVE this giveaway and will make a book even if I don’t win!

  49. Sarah says

    I have a couple of blurb books I’d like to make. The first being our wedding pictures from 2.5 years ago. I just haven’t taken the time to make a book yet. The second book would be our daughter, Gabby’s, first year. Her first birthday is in October and I really would love to have a book ready for her party!

  50. Eileen says

    My parents will celebrate their 50th anneversary in Septemeber. I am helping my father put together a surprise dinner party for my mother. I would love to create a book of photos from that evening!

  51. Kristin says

    I would LOVE to make a book of family pictures for my Mom. The book would be to show her how much we appreciate her and how much she means to us. I really hope I win this!

  52. says

    Great giveaway! I’ve been living in Vancouver for the last 2 years and we’re getting ready to move. I’d love to make a book of our time here!

  53. says

    I was given a horse in January 2010 when a dear friend of mine passed away. I had wanted a horse my entire life since I was a young girl but had never been financially able to buy a horse along with all the equipment that came with it. Nicole died in a terrible car wreck on December 28, 2009 and her parents decided to give me her true love, Ella, a pretty thoroughbred X. I would love to make a book to keep Nicole’s memory alive and to remember the memories from these first few months of having my own horse. Thank you!

  54. Dawn says

    I would love to make a wedding album. We have tons of beautiful photos and are now expecting our first child and I have yet to make a book! I think this would really help motivate me!

  55. Sarah H. says

    This is a fantastic giveaway! I have been planning on using blurb to make a memory book for my grandparents, documenting almost 30 years of family trips to Kiawah – the most recent of which was just two months ago. This would certainly help!

  56. Nass says

    I’d love to make one with a selection of pictures and little stories about our two little ones though it will be hard to choose which pictures from the last three years!

  57. says

    I’d love to make a book with one picture from each vacation from my first 30 years and one picture of each place I’d like to go in my next 30 years. 🙂

  58. says

    We lost our beloved pug last month and my husband and I keep talking about making a memory book of him with all the pictures we took. This would be perfect for that!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  59. Erin says

    I’m way behind on making photo books of my kiddos! It would be great to catch up on that, especially for free!

  60. Laura K says

    There’s probably a million albums I could make. I got my wedding album done, but that was the last one I did…here we are, four years later with an 18-month old daughter! There are vacation albums, birthday albums, a “first year” album, I’d love to make a “cookbook” album, with all my favorite recipes and pictures of us eating them, and, what I really want to do, is make an album for my daughter — like an ABC album with pictures of words she is learning. Like I said, there’s a million albums I could make!

  61. Jenna says

    I have a long list of books to make including a family recipe book, a book of my moms old songs and poetry with pictures of the grand kids and a wrap of Summer 2010! Thanks for a great giveaway.

  62. CarlyH22 says

    Oh how I love Blurb!!! So many good reasons to make one! My husband and I are expecting our first child at the end of the year, my due is Christmas Day, very exciting! We are also taking a little anniversary trip to St. Thomas in September, this year is our 6th anniversary. We went to Key West last year for our 5th anniversary and I have yet to put those pictures together. Lots of eventful, fun, wonderful occassions that deserve a Blurb. Oh please, oh please, pick me! 🙂

  63. says

    I am literally typing as fast as my crossed fingers will let me, as I am DYING to make a Blurb book of our wedding images to give to our parents. My goal is to have this done by the fall (we’ve been married seven months already) so this would be the perfect inspiration for me to mark that project off the checklist! Love this little giveaway.

  64. says

    I LOVE Blurb! I just got some great books from there — but I have ONE more I want to make — which is of the candid photos from our wedding that were taken by friends and family that we didn’t get put in the professional album. I’d love to win! Thanks!!!!

  65. Meghan says

    Oh, I would love to make a US Navy book. My husband almost has 20 years in the service and I would love to give him a book all about his past 20 years in the service and what he has done for our Country,

  66. Stephanie says

    My husband and I are about to take a trip to France and Italy…I would love to make a book after our trip. 🙂

  67. says

    My coffee table desperately needs this book! It’s crying out for something more meaningful and interesting than old Southern Livings and Southern architecture and design books. Anyone who sits on our couch will be unable to resist a Blurb book!

  68. says

    Wow!! I’d love to make a blurb book of my first year of teaching, including all the kiddos and little stories from the year. Great giveaway 🙂

  69. says

    well, i’d actually like to make two! first i would like to make a wedding album and second my baby just turned a year old and i would love to start the tradition of documenting his life every year.

  70. Kriten says

    I would love to make my wedding album! Our 2 year anniversary is next week and I still havent gotten around to it making one … with a baby on the way, I have to get started!

  71. says

    I keep saying I’m going to scrap book all our engagement/wedding/newlywed pictures and things and it has just not happened! I think I would do really well with blurb though because I’m such a tech nerd and could do it all on the computer.

  72. Jessi says

    OOOH…I have 2 years worth of European travel pictures that have never been printed…a book would be PERFECT!

    Thanks for the fun giveaway! I look forward to trying BLURB.

  73. lisa says

    I’m planning to make a book of engagement photos and some other pics from our relationship to use as a guestbook for my wedding in October — this would be perfect for that!

  74. Ally says

    I’m getting married next year, and for the guest book I want to make a book of my husband-to-be and me throughout the years – from age 1 to 25!

  75. says

    I moved last month, and someone stole two boxes off the back of my moving van. One contained all my picture frames, photos, and albums — including my wedding album. There just isn’t money in the budget to have a new leather album remade, so I’d love to be able to make one on Blurb to replace the one that was stolen!

  76. says

    I just received my picture gallery from my wedding photographer and since we have the copyright release to the photos I can use them and print them however I like! I would love to make a little book full of wedding pictures for our coffee table!

    It’s so fun reliving the memories from our wedding day over and over and a photo book would be the absolute best! 🙂

  77. Jillian says

    I’d love to make a blurb book for my parents. Benjamin is the first grandchild for them! I’m so fortunate to have them around. My mom has been such a HUGE help over the last 14 months. She would totally LOVE a Benjamin Blurb Book!

    Thanks!

  78. Kimberly says

    my brother and I were just talking about digitizing some photos and making a book for our kids of our dad who passed away 10 years ago. we want to make something we can read to them so they can understand what a great granddad they had even though he didn’t get to meet them. this would be perfect to help us complete the project!

  79. says

    Ooohhhh…I would make a book of our recent vacation to Lake Tahoe for my husband’s 30th birthday. It was so gorgeous there! I think it would make a very pretty coffee table book!

  80. says

    I’m so behind on everything photo-related right now – except taking them! I wouldn’t know where to begin. So, if I win, would you please pass the code along to Disgruntled Julie?

  81. says

    What a wonderful give-away! I’ve had “make a book of my blog entries” on my “Summer To-Do” list for months… This would be PERFECT for me!!!

  82. SC Crew (Emily) says

    My Blurb book would be of the transformation of my first house. I have some funny pictures from a packed car getting everything from storage, the hideous wallpaper in the foyer, me covered in paint. Oh the list goes on. It would be fun to see the change from the day I walked in the door to now and how the transformation took place in my very first home.

  83. says

    Three years later, I still haven’t made a book for our wedding (terrible!). I’ve never used Blurb, but I’d love to give it a whirl!

  84. Christina Mordoff says

    I LOVE Blurb! I have used them to make a few books, my favorite being the one I made that had our wedding vows for our ceremony. It now lives on our coffee table for us to look at from time to time. The next book I need to make is our honeymoon album. We went to Italy, and I need to get the photos out of my computer so I can actually enjoy them!

  85. says

    i would love to make a book from pregnancy to birth for my daughter. like a baby book but more cleancut and professional looking for her to have when she’s older!

  86. Catherine says

    I love Blurb! I made an guest book out of my engagement pictures for my wedding. My little sister is getting married next July, and I plan to make one for her as well. So, that’s what I’d do with this giveaway… I’d “give it away!” 🙂

  87. Ashley says

    I’d make a book for my fiance! His birthday is coming up – and he complains that we never “print” pictures anymore. I love this site!

  88. Jackie says

    I just had another baby, this time a girl, in June. It would be really nice to get to make her a “birth book” since we are now 700+ miles away from all our family so that she can see all the pics and hear stories about family visiting!

  89. Leah says

    I’d love to put together a book on the first months of my new baby boy’s life! I’ve got amazing pictures, and not an ounze of desire to start scrabooking. I think this is the perfect way to quickly put together a keepsake and not spend hours cutting out paper and pictures and buying all the scrabooking “stuff”!!

  90. NYC Reader says

    When my grandmother died last year, I inherited all of her recipe cards and books. I felt a little bad about this, because we have many cousins and there are three sisters (my Mom + two aunts) that didn’t get to keep these treasures. I decided I would put together a recipe book with scans of their handwritten notes and recipe cards, but to make it more special, I want to put in photos of Grandma in the kitchen or sharing her treats with us as well. At the very least, I want to make a book like that for my mother, although I’d like to get copies for all the women in our family. So that’s what I would use this coupon code towards – the recipe book for my Mom.

  91. says

    Hi! I’m from Mexico, and I’d love to do alot of Blurb Books, but there’s not a place here to do that, well not a great job like that.

    I want to do a Blurb of my wedding, my pregnancy, my little one, my family, about a lot of things!!

    P.S. Sorry for my english lol.

  92. Emily says

    I was just thinking of doing a blurb book so it’s so funny that you would have this give-away.

    My boyfriend and I spent our last term of school abroad and managed to do some travelling while we were there. My mother, who had previously never been to Europe, managed to come and visit us for a couple of weeks and we took her on a tour of scandanavia which was definitely a highlight of her life. She loves showing the pictures to anyone who will sit and listen but she’s been complaining about not being able to remember all the names and the places. I thought that a blurb book would let us put all the photos (with little descriptions about where we went and the funny things that happened to us while we were there) would be the perfect way for her to remember her trip.

  93. Courtney says

    OOOOH I love Blurb!!! I would love to make a book from our honeymoon to Jamaica!!! We just celebrated 3 months of marriage and I wish I could showcase our fantastic honeymoon! Thanks!

  94. Laura says

    I just got engaged…not even 72 hours ago and would love to have a blurb book for either engagement pictures or our wedding!

  95. Laura says

    I recently discovered a bunch of photos from high school and college and would love to compile them all in an album to keep to show my children someday.

  96. MrsK says

    I am planning to make my husband’s son a book with photos of his twins from their first year and give it to them on their birthday this November. This will be a special treasure for them and the babies when they get older.

    Love Blurb books!!! Yay for your giveaway!

  97. says

    I would make a book of pictures of my adorable niece and nephew. We’ll all be on vacation together next week and I know I’ll get loads of great pics of both of them.

  98. kathleen says

    My sister is getting married in a few months and I have a ton of wonderful pictures of her showers, parties, dress fittings, etc. I think it would be so fun to make a whole album chronicling her engagement and the year leading up to her wedding!

  99. Christina says

    OOOOOhhhhhhhh, this looks fantastic! My husband and I just returned from an anniversary trip to Spain, and I would document our trip with my book!

  100. says

    I tried to comment but I don’t think it worked so let me try again. I would make a blurb book of our 2nd trip to Brazil to visit family. I already made a book of our first trip and gave copies to our parents.

  101. says

    My husband and I have been meaning to make ourselves a wedding book for a while now with all of the wonderful pictures from our wedding last October. We already made blurb books for our parents last Christmas, and now we would love to have one of our own!

  102. Pamela G. says

    My husband and I are going to Ireland on Sunday and I’d love to make a Blurb book with all our pictures. Thanks!

  103. says

    I’d like to make a book of the pics of my fiance and I through the years, since the wedding is soon! I’d make a great gift for him!

  104. Sara says

    We gifted our parents personalized wedding albums as a thank you but have yet to deliver over a year after our weddding date. Life has gotten too hectic with moving to a new city and buying a house. It would be wonderful to have an incentive to finish the books for our parents to show how much we appreciate their love and support!

  105. Laura says

    I love Blurb too! I have started a photobook that I want to use as my wedding guestbook when I get married [april 2011!]. I am also thinking about using it to make a book of my favorite recipes as a Christmas gift for some family members 🙂 Awesome giveaway!

  106. says

    I would love to create a cookbook! I have tons of old family recipes that I want to compile into one place and this would be the perfect outlet.

  107. Erin says

    I have never made any kind of photo book before and can’t wait to try one. I have seen Blurb before and I think they look fabulous! I would make one of my recent vacations to Mexico or Japan.

  108. Nitya says

    I have (been following your blog for the past month and I find your experiences quite interesting! I am a semi-stay at home mom 🙂 – work from home full time and I have a daughter who is the same age as your son, Hudson 🙂 With my hands quite full with the baby and work, I hardly get time to work on any of my pet projects – like starting a blog (instead I jot down my thoughts in notepads ;)), baking, party planning, shopping (hahaha – never get time for this one!).
    Even with the limited time, I planned and arranged for an awesome first birthday party for my little girl. And we have beautiful pictures to remember the day. Someday I’d like to make a professional photo book of the party for my daughter to remember the day by!

  109. AL says

    Oh WOW!! I have been wanting to do this for quite sometime! I would love to do one of us with our two furry kids – as we just rescued a cocker spaniel. The timing would be perfect!!!

    =) Fingers Crossed!!

    Thanks Erin!

  110. Lindsey says

    I would make a book for my little girl full of pics from her 1st year. I didn’t make a baby book but documented all the milestons (1st tooth, starting baby food, crawling,etc) on my blog. I can add additional pics and use the narrative from my blog to make her a memorable baby book!

  111. says

    So cool! I would definitely make a book of wedding photos to give to my grandma who didn’t get to come 🙁 We get our proofs on Monday, so excited!

  112. Rachel says

    I am working on a Blurb book for my daughter’s first year…I’d love to win this and put it towards that book!

  113. Sarah says

    I would LOVE to win this giveaway!! I recently got married and would love to make a Blurb book of our wedding photos that we are getting from our photographer! It would be such a great way to get a album made of all the photos that I love instead of picking out only a few!

    Thanks Erin!! What a great giveaway from Blurb!!

  114. Rachel Gray says

    I would make my book with my soon-to-be new baby’s (like in 2-ish weeks) newborn photos! It would be a wonderful way to display them! 🙂

  115. says

    I’d love to make one of my wedding, I’ve been putting it off for over a year now! Winning would give me the kick in the pants I need! 🙂

  116. says

    I would love to make a book covering my baby’s first year! What a great way to “store” all his photos other than on my camera card 🙂

  117. Amanda says

    Would love to make one of our little one. I take tons of pictures and never do anything with them so this would be great. At least then he would have a keepsake instead of just photos!

  118. Cassie says

    The Blurb books look awesome! I’d love to make one for the family I’ve been nanny-ing for for almost 4 years…the little girl will be 4 on August 3rd and this is my last couple months working for them (new job for me, pre-school for her) and I’d love for us both to have a momento of my time with their awesome family!!

  119. says

    I’ve been wanting to make a book of our first year of marriage but haven’t been able to decide on a website to use. This one looks amazing though! I would really like to make a tradition out of it and make a book for every year we are married!

  120. Kathleen says

    I would love to get all of our wedding pictures put into a book. It’s almost been a year and I haven’t gotten around to it yet. This would be a great excuse!

  121. says

    What a fantastic giveaway!!!! I made Blurb books for Nick and I’s parents last Christmas with all of the wedding photos, and am now dying to make myself one with our engagement photos (since I haven’t done anything with them yet- yikes).

  122. says

    Love Blurb. I have a wedding album & our guest book w/ our engagement pics. They both turned out beautiful. I’d love to create a new one documenting our wonderful 1st year of marriage.

  123. Emily Pitt says

    I was wondering where to have my blog made into a book, does Blurb do that? If so, my baby girl turned months old today, and I would love to document her 1st year!

  124. Sara W. says

    I’d love to make a book for my Mom’s birthday coming up in August – illustrating all that’s wonderful about her and our family’s special memories.

  125. says

    I need to make a book of my second child’s first year of life. I scrapbooked with my first, but haven’t found the time to do it the second.

  126. Ashley says

    I would love to put together a book using our pictures from our trip to Belize that we took this summer!

  127. Mrs. Potts says

    Nice giveaway!

    I’ve several books that I want to put together. First would be my niece’s first trip to the beach with us. Second, a book of my niece & nephew through the last two years. Third, a book of myself & Mr. Potts.

    Lots of book making to be done!

  128. says

    I’d love to make a book full of all of our friend’s photos from our wedding. I love our photog’s pictures & album, but I would love to have an excuse to gather our friend’s shots so we could compile them – they were the party so their take would be amazing to look back on in years to come!

  129. Allison says

    I have so many ideas for this book(s)! I would love to highlight some of my girls’ accomplishments, especially swimming. They have been on a competitive swim team since each of them was 4 years old and I would like to highlight how they have grown and how their times have improved with each year. It would also be important to note how their friends have grown and changed with them. I can’t wait to do this project!

  130. Erika says

    I was just talking about making a blurb the other day! See, okay awkward TMI internet moment, I’m doing a secret session boudoir photoshoot, not for my future fiance, uh hello, there is not ring on my finger, yet! But for me, so when I’m 70 and my “tits”, good lord, are by my knees I can look back and be like, HA! Once upon a time, Miss. dislocated GA peach was a hot tamel. So there, I put it out there, and I said the T word, which I absolutely loathe. Good luck everyone.

  131. Leigh-Anne says

    I have made several photobooks using a variety of online companies. I looked at Blurb’s website, and I would love to make a photobook with their company! The first photobook on my list is one of our honeymoon to Maui! The most beautiful place I have ever been, and I would love to show others our trip with s Blurb book!!! Thanks!!

  132. says

    Blurb is THE best. I made my first blurb book using all our engagement photos and used it as a guest book at our wedding. It was a HUGE hit. This time I’d love to gather up all the candid shots from our wedding and honeymoon and make them look gorgeous with the help of blurb! I can’t wait to have them all in one spot!

  133. The wife says

    I would finally make Birdie’s baby book seeing how she just turned 4 and still doesn’t have one! Bless the middle child!!!!!

  134. Bea says

    I would make a baby book for my sister who has a 2 year old and is expecting her second this winter. She always says she wishes she had time to organize her son’s baby pictures, so I think this would be the perfect gift!

  135. Elizabeth says

    I have a 5 week old baby boy, and i would love to make a book of his birth and first weeks at home. What a great way to preserve all of those memories.

  136. says

    I’d love a blurb book to make our honeymoon vacation photos into a book! We were finally able to have some vacation time to go after 7 months of marriage!

  137. says

    I would love to have a book made of all the blog posts I did while I was pregnant with my son, starting with the one where I announced my pregnancy and ending with his birth story. I keep meaning to do it but haven’t had the funds so far. Something else always comes up.

  138. says

    I would compile one with all of our animal pictures! We have a horse, goats, dogs, cats, birds and a rabbit and they are more than pets to us, they are family! I know it would be very sentimental to have pictures of them all – past and present- in one place 🙂

  139. Megan says

    I would love to make a book of our wedding pictures as a Christmas gift for my parents. A little early, but is it ever really too early?

  140. says

    What a great giveaway! I was a nanny for almost a year, and I’d love to make the little girl a book filled with pictures of our adventures together 🙂

  141. Fran says

    I’m getting married next month, and I’d love to create a book of our honeymoon photos to give to my soon-to-be-husband this Christmas.

  142. says

    Goodness gracious! I would love to make our wedding album. I’ve been wanting to create one online but haven’t been able to find a site that I want to make it on. I would love to win!

  143. says

    Well since I’ve been married over 4 years and I’ve yet to do anything w. our pictures from the big day or our honeymoon I think this would be the perfect excuse!

    Great giveaway, will definintely be checking Blurb out even if I don’t win. Thanks!

  144. Ashlie says

    I have never heard of blurb but would love to try it! I would make a book of my twin daughter’s 2nd birthday party!

  145. says

    I would definitely save it until the end of the year and then use it for our 2010 book. Since 2006 when our first baby was born, I’ve done one book each year right after Christmas. Mia was born in January, so that made it convenient to start that year with the tradition of one book for one calendar year. I highly recommend this to any new mom! At least the type of mom (like me) that would rather go to the dentist weekly than be forced to “scrapbook” my childrens’ lives. Blurb books make it so easy! Just choose your favorite photos from the year (I usually use upwards of 200, so my books have been 50 or 60 pages. . .which is to say I’m not agonizing over which adorable pictures to use and which adorable pictures to leave in the digital void, you know?), then pop them onto the pages in chronological order, adding captions and brief stories where appropriate, and voila. A concise, chronological record of our family for each year. My husband and I love looking through them a few times a year, looking back on how much the babies have changed (not babies anymore), and Mia (4 and a half) is now old enough to love sitting down with the books and looking at pictures of herself when she was “tiny.” Seriously great stuff. Enough of a record for my OCD tendancies, but not all the work of making fancy, decorated scrapbooks.

  146. Krystle says

    I would love to make a book for my sister. She has two young boys, both under the age of 2. She is a busy mom and doesn’t have time to make cute books like this. I would love to surprise her with a book all about her boys!

  147. says

    Such a great giveaway! I would use it to make a book of all of our wedding pictures…we are getting married in 19 days and it would be so awesome!

  148. says

    Ah, so many options! But I would have to say that I’d probably do a book devoted to Spencer’s first year. It’s only been 10 weeks so far, but I’m crazy about taking photos of him (who isn’t with their first baby, really?), and I’d love to compile them into a book. This would be an awesome opportunity, and Blurb is AWESOME- I’ve been dying to do a book since I saw a friend of mines. It’s fantastic!

  149. Brynn says

    I’m not sure what I would do with mine, but I love Blurb, and I love taking pictures. So I’m sure I could figure something out : )

  150. Leslie Sundmyhr says

    We just had our baby boy in April and I would love to put our first family photos and baby photo sessions in it!

  151. says

    I have such a long list of Blurb Books I want to make, I love them! I would love to make one for our honeymoon in Greece and a few from our wedding pictures to give to our families. Thanks for the great giveaway!

  152. Jacey Evans says

    First of all, I do not have my own blog, but I absolutely LOVE reading yours 🙂 … you have great taste and wonderful advice on “life” in general! I am recently engaged and currently planning my April 16, 2011 wedding 🙂 and I would die for a Blurb book!! I want to make a book filled with our engagement pictures for guests to sign at my wedding.

  153. says

    ooooh….. I can’t even think of what I’d do with it- too many options! Probably somethign for my mom though. I’ve never tried Blurb and would love to check them out!

  154. says

    Oh… we made a book of our wedding pics for our parents, but we never made one for ourselves! We just celebrated our 1 year anniversary, so it would be nice to actually have a book documenting the day.

  155. Hilary says

    I would love it for our wedding photos. I got married a year ago and have been procrastinating on making a beautiful book for our home.

  156. says

    My husband and I just returned from our 3rd Anniversary trip to Maui. We have both always wanted to go there and finally were able to. It was so beautiful and amazing. We had a week full of adventure, relaxation, and breathtaking views! My husband loves to take pictures of landscapes and took so many amazing pictures while we were there. He even got me to climb down this huge rock face to see a live blow hole from the sea and several waterfalls! I have been trying to find a way to display them in our home and have started to make a book on several other sites such as kodak gallery and walgreens, but have been frustrated with the lack of customization in their layouts. I want to record the names and memories of the beautiful places we saw. I would love to win a book to be able to make for my husband to always remember this trip of a lifetime!

  157. Faith says

    I’ve been looking at some of the sites like this and researching having my blog printed into a book. I really want to do it soon!

  158. Kelly, Jackson's Mama! says

    Every month I do a photo shoot with my little man – something similar to what you do with the monkey, Jackson sits by a hugeee teddy bear and I take photos of him doing his new tricks! I would LOVEEE to put together an album of each of these months to share at his 1 year birthday party in 3 months!!! THANKS!!

  159. Amanda says

    I would love to finally do a book of all the events and pictures of my bridal showers, wedding and reception! I have so many great moments that I feel would be great for Blurb Book.

  160. says

    I’d love for my son, August to get to know his Grandmother (my mom) from a Blurb book. She passed nearly 5 years ago (from breast cancer) and I have been planning to make a book about her so my son could get to “know” all about her. I have pictures scattered all around our home, but a book with pictures and stories would make it fun and hopefully special for him. She was a great lady with a lot to offer her grandson and I know she would appreciate this as much as he would.

  161. says

    I make traditional scrapbooks, but they’re incredibly time-consuming and expensive to put together. With a toddler in the house, I barely get my scrapbook stuff out once every few months. I’ve been meaning to make a book of our home-building process for my husband for the past three years (since we built the house) and this is just the perfect solution!

  162. Candice says

    I would make a photobook for my sister. She made me one several years ago and I love looking through it. I’d like to return the favor.

  163. April S. says

    I hate to admit this, but I’ve never done anything with either of my sons’ babybooks. I would love to make a Blurb book for each of them.

  164. says

    I have been diligently taking pictures throughout my pregnancy…I would love to make a picture book of my pregnancy experience (I am due 9/20/10). OR I would like to make a book for the first year of my child’s life (once he or she (it’s a surprise) arrives)!

  165. says

    I would love to make a book of the BF and I to give to him for our upcoming one year anniversary of dating! 🙂 I know he would probably cry at the thoughtfulness. Thanks for a great giveaway erin!

  166. says

    i’ve been meaning to make a first year book for our son. and just haven’t gotten around to it. surely this would provide some of that inspiration!

  167. April Cenora says

    Oh I would so love to win this! I love to make books like these…I would love to explore a new site to try out. I would love to make a book about our trip to Hurst Castle for our third year anniversary!

  168. Jane says

    I have three kids and the oldest is four. I need a blurb book to savor these sweet memories before they are gone.

  169. Courtney S. says

    Great giveaway! I have never used Blurb, but have been wanting to for ages! We don’t have kids, we already have a gorgeous wedding album, so I wasn’t ever sure of what kind of album I’d like to make. Well now I know. I would LOVE to do an album that starts of with my husband and I meeting and leads up to our wedding. Not a wedding album, but a “before the wedding” album. Pictures of when we were dating, when we got engaged, engagement pictures, shower pictures, bachelorette party pictures, planning pictures, etc. All leading to the day we said “I do.”

  170. says

    Thanks for the fun! I’d make a book with images of the great times we have had vacationing with my parents over the years. We’re so fortunate to be able to still share those trips and I’d love to show my parents how grateful we are to have them with us.

  171. Susan says

    What a great giveaway! I’d make a book of all of our vacations since we’ve been married. Eventually I’d like to make a book for every year! It would be GREAT to have that to look back on someday!

  172. Rachel says

    I would love to win this to make a book for my son’s first year. I have tons of pictures and need to find something creative to do with them. 🙂

  173. says

    What a great giveaway! I’ve always9 wanted to make a Blurb book and I know exactly what I’d use it for!! Pictures from Trey’s birth!!! Which will hopefully be soon! 🙂

  174. Britt says

    Photobooks are great! Such a perfect way to document pictures in a way you will actual go look at and reminisce. I would use the book for this past Spring: my last few months living in Florida, graduating law school, turning 25 and a few little things in between!

    Thanks for the great giveaway!

  175. Caitlin says

    Love Blurb! I am in the process of making two books- one of our 5th anniversary trip to Italy and I am trying to start one of our daughter’s first year (she is only a month old, but I already have so many pictures).

  176. says

    I made my wedding album a book from blurb instead of the traditional one and I am dying to do another. I have a friend who just got married and I promised her a blurb book, so this would come in SUPER handy! 🙂

  177. Lisa J. says

    I would either back a Blurb book from our wedding two years ago. Or I would wait a couple of months and make a Blurb book of our impending bundle of joy and give it to my husband for Christmas 🙂

  178. says

    Making Blurb books on my computer is one of my favourite activities. Unfortunately I have too many ideas to actually put them into action! I would definitely purchase the book I’ve got sitting in my BookSmart account about sidewalk cafes. It has all the photos that I’ve taken of sidewalk cafes from around Europe, and I think it would be a nice coffee table book for our new condo here in Toronto!

  179. says

    I would love to do a book about the adventure’s my children have had since we moved to Tokyo. It would be a precious keepsake they could both look back on-as could we-very fondly (and with big bouts of laughter!!)

  180. says

    So cool! I used Blurb for our engagement photos and I loved it! I would either make a wedding album or a trip of our honeymoon photos! What a great giveaway!

  181. Chrysta says

    I love Blurb! My sister has made some of the most fabulous books using Blurb and then giving them as gifts. I would make one of the two of us on all of our trips together.

  182. Jenny says

    I love Blurb! I’m in the process of making an album for our recent trip to Greece, and it would be wonderful to be able to order it for free!

  183. says

    I would LOVE to win this! I just did a post today about how I want to make a Blurb book for our guestbook at the wedding. This would be very helpful!

  184. Tara says

    Well, I’ve heard of Blurb, but to be quite honest, I’ve never made a book with them before. I find myself going to places like shutterfly where I can make a book for lots less $. I think I would make a simple book with pictures of my 2 daughters. Or maybe a one-year book for my youngest, who’s 1st birthday is in Sept.

  185. says

    I absolutely adore Blurb! My hubby made me my first blurb book for this past Christmas and it’s one of my most treasured possessions. Now that we have a little one, I’d love to start making blurb books for every year of his life, or for special occasions!

  186. Jenny P says

    I just got my professional wedding pictures on Friday! WE are dying to make a book but we probably won’t til Christmas or our anniversary because of money. But for $40 I think we could make it happen now! Love me some Blurb!

  187. says

    Your blog always has the best giveaways. I would love to put this towards a big book that I am working on. I am doing the 365 photo project and can’t wait to have an album full of those photos by the end of the year.

  188. says

    I actually have a blurb book about half made. Hubby and I will celbrate our 5th anniversary in September and I thought it would be awesome to put all of our pics from the first five in one big book. I hardly ever print photos! Unfortunately, I have been working on it for a while and I really need a kick in the pants to finish it. The disaster that is currently our house is not going to help get this done!

  189. Maureen says

    I would make a book that recaps the 2nd year of being with my boyfriend. I did one for our 1st year and I just love it!!! 🙂

  190. Amy Ruble says

    Oh yeah! I entered last year and didn’t win, but my response is the same!! I want to make a blurb book to celebrate my son turning 1 on October 4th. I’d actually make 3 books, one for us and one for each set of grandparents. I’d like to make this a tradition and make a yearly book for him.

  191. says

    I would love to make a wedding album!! We are celebrating our 3 year wedding anniversary in a few days and still have images on a disk but no album.

  192. says

    Two and a half years after getting married I would love to make one about our honeymoon! : ) It was the trip of a lifetime and would be a perfect coffee table book!

  193. Jillian says

    I looooove blurb!! I made both my parents, and in-laws wedding albums from our wedding last October. AND our guest book at our wedding was from blurb, too! I’d either make our wedding album, or, a book for our one year anniversary with pictures from this past year.

  194. Julie Burris says

    So glad you mentioned Blurb. I’ve been planning on finding a site like this for my son’s pictures!

  195. says

    what amazing timing! I make a book every year of our past year so our little girl knows all the places we went, holidays we celebrated, and how loved she was! I just compiled a book and would LOVE to get some savings when I submit! Thanks for the opportunity, every penny counts these days! Julia

  196. says

    I want to compile my blog of Jacks 1st year into a blurb book. I just have to sit down and do it…but with a code like that I know it will be the pep to get me going!! PS If I win (wishful) I will be in Montana until Tuesday so I will not have access to email, but will be one excited little girl if I have an email when I get back 🙂 ha! Thanks for hosting the giveaway!

  197. Catalina says

    oo id love to win this giveaway…I’ve been meaning to make a blurb book for a friend forever.

    Thank you Blurb and Erin!

  198. says

    I love(!) blurb books! My husband & I made one as our guestbook for our wedding last august using our engagement pictures – it turned out beautifully & so professional! A year later we are still saying we need to get on making one of our actual wedding! This would be such a wonderful giveaway to win so that we can get it done! Thank you!

  199. says

    I love blurb!! I made a book of my sister and I during our vegas vacation and gave it to her for christmas. With this book, I’d like to make a photo album/guestbook for my upcoming wedding! We want to move away from the traditional white guest book and have something we can still look at for after the wedding.

  200. coachwife6 says

    My husband’s basketball state championship season. He won it in 2008, but I have not done anything. I need help!

  201. alison says

    I would use it to create my first Blurb book from my first trip to Europe (London and Paris) last year. I’ve been wanting to make it for a year now, but I’ve been too intimidated to do it! I know if I got a free Blurb book code that would definitely make me finally make it!!! I have some awesome pictures that are sitting in my computer that I really want to print and put on my coffee table!

  202. says

    I just saw this post because I was on my honeymoon! I am in love with blurb, the last time I made one was for My college graduation. This time if I were selected I would make a book of the candid shots from our wedding. We put out cameras on each of our tables so our guests could take pictures and I would love to organize them into a cute coffee table book for our den!

  203. Aly Haynes says

    I know this is cliche and most of the people responding want to do a wedding book…unfortunately thats also my wish! I cant afford the beautiful ones my photographers offer and would LOVE to have this as a starting point for creating our book.

    Thanks,
    a
