Kerri's Croppin' Corner offers
custom-made page and album services designed to take the stress out of
album-making.
Hiring a professional scrapbook artist who has made several albums and has a
breadth of experience with all types of tools, paper, stickers, and other
embellishments will provide you with a gorgeous keepsake album that will last
for generations.
I will create a
scrapbook album with your photographs, using the latest techniques and
embellishments (if you so choose), on acid-free and lignin-free cardstock and
papers. I can also create custom page sets for your family event pages to
your specifications so you can create the album faster but still have a unique
and creative look to it.

The Album Subject:
Tribute
Album
- What better way to remember a loved one who has passed on than an album
dedicated to their life? With room to record your fondest memories of your
loved one, this album will become a keepsake that will help everyone in the
family heal. You can see the tribute
album I made for my father when he passed away in July 2005.
Professional
Album
- A continuing record of your family's events is the perfect thing to pass down
to your next generation. They can see what you did, how you did it, and
how much it meant to everyone in your family.
Family Album
- A continuing record of your family's events is the perfect thing to pass down
to your next generation. They can see what you did, how you did it, and
how much it meant to everyone in your family.
Baby
or Child Album
- Nothing is more precious to a child than to see their baby album, filled with
photos of them being born and being cherished by their family. The
journaling in a baby album will show them, without a doubt, how much you've
loved them from the day they were born. As they continue to grow,
childhood albums continue the story of their lives, giving them a lasting record
of their childhood activities.
Mom's/Grandparent's Brag Book - A 6" x 6" album filled with photos from your
child's life, a "brag book" scrapbook album brings smiles where it is shown.
Gift Album
- An album for a retiring friend or family member, a baby shower and birth, a
wedding shower, or special anniversary is the perfect gift. Consider a
gift album made without any photos so the recipient can add their own photos and
journaling later as they create their memories.

Remembrance
Album - The photos and subject are too painful for you to create the album
yourself but someone else can take the care to lovingly create the album for
you.
Wedding Album
- Put all of those wonderful photos everyone took into one album so you can look
back on your special day through everyone else's eyes. Include all of the
wedding memorabilia (invitations, ribbons, napkins, gift cards, etc.) that don't
fit in the professional album your photographer provides.
The Types of Albums or Projects:
Pre-Made
Album - Order a pre-made album and you will receive 20 pre-made scrapbook
pages ready for you to mount your photos and journal your heart away. Just
choose a theme: Baby Boy, Baby Girl, Brag Book, Wedding, Vacation, or
Holidays.
Complete Custom
Album - Just leave the complete creation to me. Sort your photos into
envelopes, note on the envelopes any details or dates regarding the photos, ship
them off to me and you'll get back a beautiful keepsake album to enjoy for years
or a professional portfolio album to present to potential clients.
Single Custom
Layout - If you've tried and tried to get that one layout done and just
can't do it, let me do it for you. Single page or double page, I can come
up with a wonderful layout you'll just love.

The Ordering Process

Click the Place
Order button to get started. The Place Order button will take you to the
Custom Album Info Page which has several questions for you to answer regarding
the album you'd like made. The answers to these questions will enable me
to give you a quote on your album using the basic prices quoted below and any
additional embellishments you desire.
Within 2 days of
receiving your request, I will send you an email with any follow-up questions I may
have. This email will also have at least one quote for your album project.
I may need to call you to discuss any other details, and if so, I'll ask for
your phone number at this time if you didn't provide it on the info form.
Once we've agreed
on everything, I will send you a PayPal invoice for the NON-REFUNDABLE deposit
and ask that you download and complete the Custom Order
Form and Agreement.
After you have
completed the order form and signed the agreement, you'll send me via USPS:
-
Copies of all the photos you want in your
album (DO NOT send originals! Use your negatives or cartridges to make
copies and keep your negatives or cartridges safe until the project is
complete!)
-
Any memorabilia you'd like included
(pamphlets, napkins, brochures, ticket stubs, certificates, etc.)
-
The album you've chosen for your album
project (optional--prices below include album so I will adjust the project price accordingly
if you provide an album)
When the album is complete, I will send
you a PayPal invoice for the shipping amount. When I receive that
amount, I will ship your completed album (registered, insured for the full
amount of the album with signature required).

Important Information About This Process:
Allow
approximately 6 weeks for album completion unless special arrangements are made
in advance. Half of the payment is required up front and half upon album
completion, along with shipping total. Installment payments can be made
over the 6 week period if you choose to do so. PayPal is preferred, but
MasterCard, Visa and Discover are accepted and credit card numbers can be given
to us over the phone. Checks and Money Orders are accepted as well.
I use the highest quality scrapbooking products available!
All pages are created specific to the theme or event shown in your pictures, so
please take a few moments to gather your photos and sort them chronologically.
The best way to do this is by using envelopes. Label the envelopes with
the event name, subject's name, location of photo, date of event, and any other
information you have about the event.
Please REMEMBER: Creating a scrapbook page means your photos WILL be
cropped and permanently adhered to the pages. If you have photos you DO
NOT want permanently adhered, write "no glue" on a post-it, stick it to the back
of the photo and I will use a photo sleeve, photo envelope or photo corners to
mount the photo.
I may ask to post
a few pages from your album in my Samples section, but I will ask permission
first and will not post it without your written permission.
