<p class="p1">In our digital age, it is really easy to store all our photographs in iPhoto and feel confident they will always be there waiting for us. But even Vint Cerf, Google’s Chief Internet Evangelist, has noted, “If there are photos you really care about, print them out.”</p>
<p class="p1">And I&#8217;m here to tell you, there&#8217;s no better repository for your precious memories and moments than the brand-spanking new <a href="http://www.artifactuprising.com/photo-books/layflat-photo-album" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Layflat Album</a> from Denver&#8217;s <span class="s1"><a href="http://www.artifactuprising.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Artifact Uprising</a>. Lushly fabric-covered in your choice of 11 enticing tones, each is then foil-stamped on the front and spine in gold, copper, white or black. And, the albums do just what they promise — lay completely flat while open so you can really appreciate those images.</span></p>

<p class="p1"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10879" src="http://thepaperchronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/artifact2.jpg" alt="artifact2" width="800" height="533" /> <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-10880" src="http://thepaperchronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/artifact3.jpg" alt="artifact3" width="800" height="533" />Wow, right? Artifact Uprising kindly offered to create one for me, and I knew exactly what I needed to fill it with: the past few years of photographs taken by awesome rock &#8216;n roll photographer <a href="http://sarahsloboda.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sarah Sloboda</a> of my daughter Veronica and dog Scout. I have to admit, I&#8217;ve made prints of a few, but they&#8217;ve just been sitting on my external hard drive, just waiting for some calamity to occur so they could be lost forever. When the album arrived last week, even the slipcovered box gave me goosebumps!<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11103" src="http://thepaperchronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/IMG_6850-copy.jpg" alt="IMG_6850 copy" width="800" height="1067" />I love my posh cover with the copper foil-stamped &#8220;S&#8221;!<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11105" src="http://thepaperchronicles.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/IMG_6858-copy.jpg" alt="IMG_6858 copy" width="800" height="1067" />I have a whole new appreciation for the photographs presented in this luxe format. Even though they were just taken last summer, my daughter has grown so much already. I know this album will just get more precious as time elapses — for Artifact Uprising&#8217;s tagline is too true, what is tangible now is tomorrow&#8217;s disappeared beauty. Who said there was no truth in advertising?<br />
