Create a stunning double-page spread.
|
|
|
|
Add that “wow” factor to your photo book by showcasing your favorite picture in a two-page spread. Choose a photo that is at least 2500 pixels wide and doesn’t have important details like text or faces in the middle. Decide which book style and size you'd like to create, then follow our step-by-step instructions to edit your image and place it in your book. Your family and friends are going to be impressed by your photo book talents when they see the beautiful two-page spread you designed with Picaboo.

Frame your pictures with fun corners.
Add the perfect finishing touch to your pages with Picaboo's corners. After you have created a page, select "Corners" from
your Book Tools menu.
For bath time, use rubber ducky corners. Or, for playtime, choose from block, balloon, handprint, or ABC corners.
|
|
|
Add personalized backgrounds.
Take pictures of interesting textures or patterns that are familiar to your baby and create personalized backgrounds for your
baby book.
Capture a photo of patterns, such as your favorite baby blanket. Later, in Picaboo's edit mode, simply drag and drop these
photos onto the background of a page to set your page's custom background.
|
|
|
Create a 3-D effect.
To easily add depth to a full page image, first select a page layout with one photo well. Next, drag and drop the image you
have selected onto both the background of the page as well as the photo well.
To finish the effect, use the Picture Tools to zoom into the picture and center it however you'd like.

|
|
Scan birth announcements, newspaper clippings, and birth certificates.
Arrange one item or many on your scanner. Scan and save them as a high resolution (300 DPI or higher) .jpg files. These images can then be added to a single photo well in Picaboo or used as a background or full page image.

|
Add an envelope to include small keepsakes.
In addition to memorable paper items, you can also create a blank space in your book for an envelope with your child's hospital wristband or first
haircut clippings.
When you receive your book, use double-sided scrapbooking tape to attach
an envelope to the page with the blank space. Then, simply add your baby's keepsakes.
|
|
|
Create a personalized frame.
Select Picaboo's collage layout for your page. Look for a tiny bit of space between the many photo wells and drag and drop
your center image there. Next, add other photos to the image wells around the outside of the page. To view what the page will
look like when printed simply click on the "View" button at the top of the page. Just be sure to save your work first.
|
|
|
End your book with a collage.
The perfect way to include all the extra photos that you couldn't fit into the rest of your baby book is to add a collage
page at the end.
Choose to fill all the photo wells or just a few and be sure to select the perfect background for the finishing touch.
