    Not sure if you're looking for an album that you put photos in and write yourself, or one that you create on line.
    I recently did a "story book" on Snapfish that I dropped photos into and created text boxes. I love it.

    I made one of these for OH a few years ago I brought a sketch book from Hobbycraft with his favourite colour as the cover and then printed the photos off in Tesco that I wanted so they were professional printed and then I put it all together

    I wrote lyrics to our favourite songs in it, wrote little notes about the photos on memories. I even themed the pages month by month where I could so the pictures were in date order. So Christmas pages had trees and pictures of baubles ect that I printed off the internet. When I did the page about a new year at my mums because it snowed I put snowflake pictures on the page

    By doing this it meant I could make it a lot more personal than a vistaprint or tru-print job and I really enjoyed and I could move the items around until I was sure the page was perfect

    OH loves it and I have added to it each year with new bits and it is a real testment of our lives together
