Q: What is the difference between the 2 formats? How do I know which one I should order?

A: Read about each format below to see what each comes with and what you can and cannot do with each format.

 

JPG FORMAT  - Created for those who do NOT own photoshop. You receive square chalkboard pages that have the titles pre-designed on them that you will upload to a photo book company of your choice. From there you will add your own text onto the pages through their editing program. 

Includes:

• Page templates for months 1-12 + one page reading “newborn” for the title.
• 1 solid chalkboard page to use as an intro page
• 21 different colors options for each month’s page title (see example below)
• Page templates made for 10×10 squared size books and smaller. All templates are 10×10 in size, which means they can be reduced in size using any online photo book design program.

Do NOT Include:

• Photos. Those are added by you of course. Unless you want pictures of my baby
• Paragraph text/font. The font you see used for the paragraphs in my baby book example are hand written by me directly on the chalkboard. You must choose your own font for your paragraph.
• Instructions showing how to upload your template into online photo book design software

PSD FORMAT – Created for those who OWN photoshop and want the ability to choose their own colors for the title pages.

Includes:

• 1 10×10 template file fully layered with a chalkboard page background and titles for months 1-12 + a title reading “newborn” that are adjustable in color
• Basic instructions for how to change the color of your title without losing the integrity of the title’s quality
• Endless color options for each month’s page title
