Cover of the School Days Photo Book.
I am so darn excited about my latest venture–a photo “Book of the Month” club! I still love tactile scrapbooking but have found in my busy life that digital books are fun and easy to create and are a beautiful presentation that will last forever. Plus, you can share the digital version with all your family and friends. The photo above is a sample cover of my School Days September Book of the Month club. This book is an answer to my search for the perfect School Days digital photo book. It’s totally customizable and is a great way to keep up with all my children’s school years.
Check out a few spreads from my September School Days book of the month:
Cover Page for the School Days Photo Book.
Teacher's Not from School Days Photo Book.
"How Do You Get to School?" Spread from School Days Photo Book.
Highlighting Friends in the School Days Photo Book.
Here is what I love about my new books and the new program:
- They are really easy and simple to create. Just add your photos–all the guess work is done for you. Or, you can use our designs but customize them to fit your own needs.
- These beautiful books are artistically designed with unique themes.
- These high-quality, hard-bound books are an affordable price . Just $17.99 for your first book! ($39.99 regular price minus 30% book-of-the-month promotion minus $10 sign-up promotion)
- A digital version of your completed book is automatically e-mailed to you. This can easily be shared with family and friends.
- You can choose between the book with normal pages or a revolutionary “lay flat” book.
Every month, a new book like one of these will be added to the club:
This is a sneak peak of some of the photo books that will be featured in the coming months.
The featured book will be 30% off the regular price during the month it’s offered. You’ll still be able to buy the book in future months for the regular price.

Hey Lisa,
could you share the recipe for the bar/cookies you pictured on your Twitter page?
It won’t let me subscribe to your newsletter. I keep getting an error message, page not found.
Please try the newsletter signup again…it looks to be working now.
So excited you’re doing this, Lisa. I made two of your digital books when they were a QVC TSV. I love them. God bless. The family looks great.
I joined the club (forsurveysonly at gmail dot com) and follow you on twitter (@forsurveysonly).
Thanks for the opportunity!
Lisa, I’ve been comparing non-cartridge die cutters. I really want to be able to print true type fonts. Can you tell me how small you can print the letters?
YEAH SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS!!! THE WEBSITE AND YOUR TWITTER PAGE ALL LOOK AWESOME!
I am following you on Twitter and tried to sign up for your newsletter, but it was giving me problems with the code. I’ll double check and try again if it didn’t work. Thanks for this wonderful giveaway! I have been drooling over the Silhouette SD.
What a GREAT giveaway…unfortunately the sign-up for the newsletter isn’t working.
Today it appears that the newsletter sign-up worked. Maybe I’ll be the only one to enter for the Silhouette and will win it! I see no other comments.
Are you able to sign up for your newsletter if you live outside the US? I tried and it came up with an error.
Thanks
I am following you on Twitter. I am getting an error when I sign up fo rthe newsletter. Thank you for the opportunity to win.
Wow! Great book and exactly what I need and the Silhouette, amazing machine I hear. Love your new blog Lisa. Congratulation!
I trid to sign up for the email, but it wouldn’t let me. Do you have to be from the States?
Love the new website Lisa! It looks beautiful-just like your scrapbooks. Look forward to reading your blogs. -Carol
The books look beautiful! I am so excited for your new adventure you inspire so many to create~
I don’t know if I need to mention that I follow you on twitter now and get your newsletter. Would really love to win this amazing machine!!
What a wonderful book! Gotta pick me. My daughter is named after your Sage! LOL! Have a great week.
I have to tell you I am getting very frustrated…have tried signing up for your newsletter about 8 times since about 7:00 this morning and keep getting an “error page not found” message. Am I doing something wrong or is there a problem somewhere with the system??? Thanks!
HI Lisa – its Ruth across the big pond – love this concept, but sadly not going to take up the digital thing at all, as a SB store owner I find lots of pretty papers and love my adhesive too much, but I so love the concept, and wish you all the very best in this project – if I had any little peoples school albums to do I could be tempted for sure. I pop by your blog every few days and I do miss you – if you could send me an email with your snailmail addy, I have tim tams to send you as I did not do CHA this year – so enough rambling from me – again, just wanted to say YOU GO Girl with this project and love the new site. HUgs Miss Ruth.
Everytime I sign up for your newsletter it says, ” Error: Page not found.”
So I can’t sign up?????? I have tried to sign up 3 or 4 times. HELP.
Lisa,
Are we supposed to leave a comment to be entered into these contests? For example, a comment to let you know we are “following you”, and that we signed up for your book club?
I am trying to sign up for your newsletter but it keeps telling me “error. page not found”
Ok, I think I have successfully signed up for the newsletter. Look forward to receiving it and really hope I am lucky enough to win a SILHOUETTE machine. How absolutely AWESOME would that be!!!!!!
I tried to sign up for your newsletter & once I was done it said, ERROR page not found…I’ll try again later today.
really like the new blog!
Lisa,
I can’t sign up for your newsletter and the chance to win the Sillouette. I fill out the form but when I submit it I get an error page. Don’t know if others are having the same problems but just thought you might like to know. Thanks
Signed up for the newsletter. Looking forward to it.
OK…after still not being able to register through the link in the blog I finally tried the newsletter option at the top and got it to work….I hope this will still qualify for the Silhouette because it is an awesome cutting system! Thanks
I signed up for Twitter and for the newsletter. Didn’t know if leaving a comment was part of it too, but just in case, here’s my comment. I’d love to win.
What a contest, wow!!! Thanks for the chances….Fingers and toes crossed…..
I am having trouble subscribing to your newsletter. Any help appreciated. cjdempsey9@msn.com
I’m excited for your blog debut!

Tried to sign up for newsletter. Kept getting error message.
I could not subscribe to newsletter. It says Page error.
Love your new website! Can’t wait to see all the great stuff do to here.
Congrats on your new website!! I signed up for your newsletter, following you on twitter and facebook
(wow, I kinda feel like a stalker LOL) Thanks for the chance to win the Silhouette- that would be so awesome!
This machine would be so great to use and take my scrapbooking to a whole other level.
I am not on Twitter but I “liked” you on Facebook. Does that count?
Hi
Thanks so much for a chance to win! I am just wondering – when you say you will announce the winner on your blog, is it necessary to check back, or do you email the winner?
I signed up to follow you on Twitter and for your newsletter.
I’ve tried 3 times to sign up for the newsletter–but I keep getting an ERROR—dont know if it’s taking it or not?
Will try again tomorrow!
Hi there…i have signed up for the newsletter…..and i would LOVE to win a silhouette….and have a play with it!!! wahooooooooooo (even happy to pay shipping since i live in NZ)
btw love the new site…..
Kudos on your new look. I like the soft, clean feel of it. Very calming and easy to navigate.
I love the ingeniousness of the book club. Great idea!!
I envy your entrepreneurial drive, wish I had thought of that.
Am excited to see the books offered!
And the Silhouette would be SO TOTALLY AWESOME! (fingers crossed)
Arrica
Ohhhhh! So nice! Love it! Thank you!
Please explain the pricing. After scrapbooking since 1997 I am switching to all-digital, all-photobook. I read the $39.99 price above and understand the -30% and -$10 calculation just fine.
But I received this price:
“$69.99 $48.99 (30% off)”
on this web page:
http://lisabearnson.ziblio.com/products/detail/giftcard/682
Please tell me how I get from (price) point A to (price) point B? Thank you so much.
Nevermind. I figured it out.
The $39.99 original price is for the book.
The $69.99 original price is for the lay-flat book.
Thanks.
And now I’m trying to sign in with FB, but it keeps taking me to the page that asks me if I want to market my own books. HOW is the $10 off when you join the club? Where?
I like the new look to the blog. Thanks for the giveaway.
Very cool Lisa!! off to check out your books!
I just found this blog!!! I signed up for your newsletter! Thanks for the chance to win!
What a wonderful prize! Thanks for the chance to win.
Hey Lisa!
Love the new look of your new website & book club! I have totally embraced the ease of using these type of photo books & am just so excited that you will be offering your own version : ) Love it, love it, love it!! Also excited about the chance to win the Silhouette. I have been a Cricut girl thus far & have heard I’m missing out on a pretty awesome machine~ FINGERS CROSSED!
Hope you & your family are doing well!

Fun giveaway! Love your new blog/site. I have signed up for you newsletter & book club!
Thanks Lisa for the chance to win. I have signed up for your “book”club, following you on Twitter and your newsletter.
Hi Lisa! My oldest just started pre-school and I was teary eyed, yet excited for her! Here’s hoping to win either of the prizes so I can stay on track of keeping up with her school days album! I just signed up for your newsletter and twitter.
Lisa, the best scrapbook I ever made was using the digital book that you had offered through Shutterfly! I am sooo happy to see this from you! I just joined the book club! Can you explain more on how the book club will work? Can we load and use the site to create the book online after purchase? How long will I have to work on each book? Do the files go away after some time, etc… Really excited about this and would love to do more books!
I am so excited to find your blog. You are one of my scrapbook teachers. When I first got into scrapbooking it was reading one of your editor messages in CK magazine. I love the way you design. I can’t wait to follow you on Twitter and your blog. Thanks for doing the contests. It would be fun to win a Silhouette.
If we already have a log-in, due to purchasing your other products, are we not eligible for the $10 sign-up reward?
just wondered….. thanks
looks like I was too fast at putting a comment here – I received an email… Thanks!!
the book looks great…I’m beginning to do more digitally, as it seems to take less time and effort
and the end product still looks better & flatter than traditional scrapbooks.
Thanks again Lisa!
Neat opportunity, thank you. And congrats on the site.
I signed up for your newsletter!
I am very interested in your photo books. I signed up for the book club and for your newsletter. Thank you!
How funny, Lisa!!! I’m thinking back when I started following your blog several years ago. I didn’t know much about them….yours was the first one I followed.
Now, I don’t know much about twitter–even though I have an account, I’m never on and not too sure how it works! So I’ll be learning through your lead again!!!
Thanks for introducing the techno “firsts” in my life!!!
I signed up for the newsletter. I would so love to win the silhouette : )
wish i “twittered” so i could have two entries
and it’s just an extra bonus to now receive the newsletter – will be groovy

Lisa, your new website looks gorgeous! Your photo books are beautiful too. I love the idea of digital, but do not know how to do it, so I love that all I have to do on your site is add photos. I also love the how vibrant the colors and papers are for the school album.
