Title Page Advice Needed

Hello all. I mostly a lurker on this newsgroup though I have posted a few questions. : )

I am going to be giving my husband a 8x10 album for Fathers Day which will include the childhood photos I have of him & current photos from his triathlons & other races. I have plenty of ideas for all the pages but I am stumped on what to do for the title page. I have mostly worked on baby/childhood albums for the kids & I don't want anything babyish for DH's book. I was thinking since it will be a Fathers Day gift something along the lines of "All About Our Dad". I don't know... I am stumped. Any advice, photos of layouts or ideas for a title page? ~ Cherie

How about the boy behind the man or the boy inside the man? Barb:o)

Actually I really like "All About Our Dad." From a boy to the man we love. Maybe have a picture of each on the title page. Boy and Man.

I have always loved the quote (source unknown) that says, more or less, "Any man can become a father. It takes a special man to be a dad." You could use that, with the "dad" part enlarged, maybe in chipboard letters, as your title page, perhaps with a photo of your DH and the children together. Do you have one of just him with your children? That would be ideal. In fact, you could enlarge it to page size and make it slightly transparent, and have it behind the quote.

Just a suggestion. I think this is a wonderful Father's Day gift for your DH, one that will be cherished, not only by him, but later by your children.

Long life, prosperity and chocolate, Raz

Hello Cherie ! Welcome to RCS ! There are some lovely masculine papers out there. Hot Off the Press has some really nice 8 1/2 by 11 books of paper and there are so many others ,too. I like the title ..' Every day is Father's day for us'

I like the idea of a "from boy to man" kind of theme and the idea of a picture of him as a boy and a man. Maybe use black and white photos?

Cherie, that sounds like a wonderful Fathers day Girt. On ideas for the title page - if you don't have this info on your pages allready - perhaps his name, date of birth and info like how many kids you have, when you were married, his likes etc - a small biog in other words with an enlargement of your (or his) fav photo in b&w .
