Good afternoon, dear friends and guests of the blog about original gifts and congratulations! Today I present to your attention an unusual idea that I really like - this is a magazine as a gift. I hope you will also like it, because such heartfelt congratulations help convey the brightest and kindest feelings to those we love and appreciate.
I am sure that in the life of each of you there is a person who is very dear to you. For some, this is mom or dad, son or daughter, husband or wife. Or maybe a friend or girlfriend who played a big role in life and became family? For such a person, I want to prepare a gift with a soul that can express feelings for him: love, gratitude, joy that they are in your life ...
Agree, not every gift is able to convey all this in full. But an individual, exclusive magazine prepared for one single person can.
It is about such a gift will be discussed today.
Personalized magazine as a gift - a declaration of love
in an unusual format
Now it is difficult to surprise with a magazine with a photo of a birthday boy on the cover. But not everyone can create a truly touching and sincere gift.
Project "Person of the front page" is an editorial office that produces exclusive, professional quality magazines about the most ordinary people.
Each magazine from the first to the last page contains information about the birthday man. No templates and the same style and design for all!
Each magazine tells the story of a person in the context of his life. There will be nothing superfluous in the magazine - horoscopes, ratings, name analyzes and other "water" ...
And what will be in it?
The magazine dedicated to the hero of the holiday, as a rule, contains his biography, interviews with relatives, stories from his life, photographs of the birthday man, his relatives and friends.
What are the reasons for ordering a magazine as a gift?
Most often it is:
- Birthday and Anniversary
- Wedding day
- Wedding anniversary
- Birth of a child
- Anniversary of labor activity
And here is who you can give a gift to:
- Husband or wife
- Mom or dad
- Son and daughter
- Sister and brother
- Newlyweds
- Friend and girlfriend
- Godfather or godmother
- Teacher and educator
- Manager and colleague
Often the magazine is ordered jointly from a large family to a birthday person or for a leader's birthday from a team. And this makes a lot of sense.
With all the variety of gift products, finding a good memorable gift is not easy. And an individual magazine from the editors "Person of the front page" filled with the energy of many people, which causes a huge amount of positive emotions in the hero of the holiday.
Why magazine "Person of the first page"?
The Front Page Person editorial staff is a team of professionals, including active journalists, editors, typesetters, build editors, color correctors and proofreaders with specialized education and experience in the production of glossy printed materials.
And when preparing a congratulatory magazine, it goes through all the same stages of creation as large-circulation glossy publications.
Based on the questionnaire filled out by the customer, articles are written, the photos provided by them are processed to eliminate defects and create a stylistic unity of the magazine. The magazine is typeset, the layout is approved by the customer, after which it is printed in one of the best printing houses in Moscow on the most modern equipment that provides offset quality. It is this performance that we see in expensive printed editions.
You can learn more about creating a magazine from this video.
How to order a personal magazine?
Creating an exclusive personalized magazine as a gift is not a quick matter. Each stage is laborious and takes up to several days.
That is why the term for ordering a glossy magazine is from 14 days. It is better to order the magazine three weeks or earlier before the event, so that your gift is created in a calm creative atmosphere, and you are rightfully proud of the result.
The price of the magazine depends on its volume, and the cost of delivery depends on where you live. To clarify all the nuances, you need to contact the editors of the journal and discuss the details of the order. This can be done by phone or e-mail indicated on the editorial website, the link to which you will find below.
Instead of concluding...
You know, on this site I try to give you a great selection of holiday ideas. Some of them personally touch me more, some less. But there are some that I am 100% sure of.
An individual personalized magazine is just such a gift. And I can easily name a few people from my relatives to whom I would like to prepare such an unusual congratulation.
I am sure that you have someone to present this gift to.
A personalized magazine is an ode to a person, a declaration of love for the hero of the holiday from his relatives and friends. Cordiality, gratitude, kindness are those feelings, the lack of which we often feel in everyday fuss. And this gift is able to convey our good attitude towards the hero of the holiday better than others.
Well, it’s nice for everyone to be in the role of a media person. Both man and woman.
Such a gift helps the hero of the holiday to feel his value to others, to understand how he is needed and loved. And these feelings of being in demand and recognition help to live and enjoy every new day.
Share your feelings, and let there be as many pleasant surprises, joy and happiness in the life of your relatives, friends and significant people as possible!
And I'm always glad to see you on the pages of the site.
Sincerely, Olga Mamin.

I pay a lot of attention to personalized gifts, as for most people their own name on a pillow-mug-flash drive evokes pleasant emotions. Souvenirs with personal photos have also been in the lead for the second decade.
I'll tell you about a recent gift order for the head of a small event management company. Colleagues wanted to somehow unusually congratulate a lady who is pretty in all respects, who infects everyone around her with an inexhaustible fountain of creativity, loves surprises, travels a lot and shares numerous photos on social networks.
Such a person can no longer be surprised with mugs and pillows, and besides the name and a lonely photo, we wanted to post a lot of all sorts of good information about Ekaterina Alexandrovna. Along the way, colleagues decided to put together funny congratulatory photos from different years, poetic dedications for various holidays and partners' reviews about the whole company, the soul of which was the hero of the day.
In short, there were a lot of photos and texts that needed to be sorted out in some effective way. At first, we saw the layout of a photo album with all sorts of decorative elements, we even started looking for a printing company that would take on this project.
While searching, we found a much more suitable idea on the Internet!
Personal glossy magazine as a gift!
On a special service, it was proposed to create a whole magazine dedicated to the hero, with the name of a cool serial magazine, for example, Forbes, Cosmopolitan, Esquire, etc. The company employs authors who can write articles and notes about various aspects of the hero's life, effectively place photos, create a unique cover with a portrait and bright headlines. The person to whom you order a magazine as a gift becomes the hero of an entire issue.
The perfect solution to our problem. Ekaterina Alexandrovna has a lot of professional and amateur photos. We found a high-resolution studio shot for the cover, some of it was taken from a professional photographer who shot corporate events and business meetings, and the rest was taken from social networks.
As a result, we received a high-quality magazine in 24 full-color pages with a laminated cover. We were pleasantly surprised by the layout, the selection of fonts for headings and captions for pictures.
Of course, the head of the company appreciated the originality of the gift, laughed a lot at the comic selection of pictures with gifts (familiar capricious suppliers were listed as manufacturers), was surprised at the beauty of the collage created based on her recent trip, read aloud the recipe for a corporate pie written with humor by our employees.
Reason for a gift
Creating a famous magazine with your own texts and images is becoming more popular every year. The list of services has expanded, various types of magazine layout have appeared, and the portfolio contains many examples of finished works.

Here are just some of the "typical reviews" that are more than plentiful on their site.
Husband loved the surprise! He was very surprised and glad and proud that a whole magazine was written about him! It was a weekday morning. At first, he just had time to look through the magazine, took it to work, showed it to everyone)
And when I read it, my emotions knew no bounds). He realized with what love this magazine was made and that it is valued and proud of it. It gave him strength and confidence. Thank you very much for the excellent work!!! Super!
Yesterday, on her birthday, my daughter received your magazine! I am sending you a photo from the "scene". We asked the waiter to play, so to speak, the role that he saw Anya on the cover of some magazine, she, suspecting nothing, was very surprised, and when he showed the magazine itself, she was even more surprised. Then the waiter asked her for an autograph -right on his hand asked to sign :). She, of course, signed, but still wondered what was going on. Friends were also in complete amazement. And when she opened the magazine and saw my photo on the editor's page, she understood everything, BUT it was still not clear: how? where? how is this possible? Friends were also shocked, and, of course, envied with kind envy, BUT they know WHAT my daughter means to me, so ... they were sincerely glad. The magazine wandered from hand to hand, everyone looked at it endlessly! In general, the surprise was a success!!! Thank you very much again!! And, I hope…see you soon, because I'm sure I want to please someone else!
We are very glad that we ordered the PREMIUM version, because so many of our wishes and suggestions would probably not fit anywhere else. The whole company made corrections, offered options, looked for suitable photos. And for each of our letters there was a detailed answer, very lively, not formal, there was a clear feeling that they were working with us, developing our thoughts, etc. We are VERY pleased with the quality of work and the quality of the magazine. We even took some moments in your work into our arsenal, because professionals always have something to learn and we are glad that we turned to you. Unfortunately, we cannot provide you with a photo, on the contrary, we ask you to remove all materials about the magazine. This is the specifics of our work, nothing can be done, but we really want our review to be on your site, because the birthday boy was simply moved to tears, and we, as a team, got to know each other from a new side while working on the magazine. It helps us a lot now in our main work. THANK YOU!
Log Versions
You will be given a choice of 5 versions of the magazine (they differ in the number of pages, layout features, the presence of personalized texts, cover design, etc.).
The cost depends on the chosen version of the magazine. Of course, a publication in which each article is dedicated to one hero evokes more vivid emotions. A detailed description can be found on the publisher's website.
On the cover, the name of the protagonist will be written in large print.
Reversal examples
An unusual birthday present can be a glossy magazine made especially for the birthday person. This a great gift for a birthday, February 23 or March 8. AND for the man who has everything, it will be a memorable gift. Especially such gift idea suitable for director or executive. After all, they are often not surprised by anything, but here is an individual approach, and recognition of his merits and a reason to brag to friends))
How to make a magazine with your own hands? To create such a surprise, you need to have basic skills in Photoshop. In addition, you will need a color printer, several high-quality photos of the birthday man and imagination. It is better, of course, to print the pages in a printing house, since the print must be of high quality and double-sided. You can also ask and glue the magazine there. If you do everything yourself, then you can glue the pages with ordinary clerical glue along the edge. Just put the magazine under oppression for a day so that it sticks well.
Stylize a photo for the cover of a publication. If this is your director, then it could be Exquier, Boss, Forbs, and so on. If a friend - then Maxim or Men`s Health. For a girl, Cosmopolitan or Glamor is suitable. But you can also name the magazine with the name of the birthday person. Print an announcement on the cover - the title of the articles with small illustrations. Articles can be about anything - a report on your joint vacation, an overview of the countries where the birthday boy is going, comic ratings, recipes for favorite dishes, a horoscope, congratulations from his friends with colorful photos, and so on. You can place an article in the style of a yellow newspaper - A celebrity such and such (having a birthday) was seen in the company .. (insert the name of her / his idol). With the help of Photoshop and compromising photos can be added. Or place an interview with relatives and friends in which they will tell interesting facts and funny stories from the biography of the gifted.
Print out a magazine, present and enjoy the effect produced)
If the birthday is themed, then make the magazine in the same style. For a gangster party, a newspaper called the Chicago Tribune is more suitable. Complete it with thematic pictures, stylized ads.
Wonderful magazine!!! All pages are thick and glossy. The colors are bright and the photographs are clear. Lead times and delivery are fast. The price is low. The texts are well composed (my correction was the minimum that I did not expect at all): no stupidity or vulgarity, everything is subtle, ironic, humorous, without grandiloquent platitudes and at the same time without familiarity. Everything pleased! We beat the white back of the first page, because of which we were worried, with our opening speech, and left the last one for the congratulations of friends. Thank you so much for the wonderful gift to our son!
October 19, 2016 at 06:04 pmHello! I ordered a glossy magazine for a friend on the DR. The program is convenient, understandable ... there were some difficulties with its installation and use, but in the chat, technical specialists. service patiently answered my questions ... thanks to them for that. They promised to work on the issue so that it would be possible to use the program on-line from abroad ... The magazine was quickly put into delivery. In general, I am 100% satisfied with the service. Now about quality. All photos and pictures are bright and beautiful, everything is fastened perfectly. One BUT, when I was deciding on a gift, I asked if this magazine would feel like a real glossy magazine. To which I received a positive response. Which I really hoped for. In reality, the pages are much denser than in a real magazine, ie. because of this, in my opinion, it is not entirely believable ... This upset me a little, since I expected to receive exactly an exact copy of a glossy magazine. The gift has not yet been delivered. But I hope that my and your efforts will be appreciated by the birthday girl.) Thank you for your work
Yesterday we published an amazing report about the wedding of Ekaterina and Maxim, where Katya mentioned the gift she prepared for her mother. Today's article turned out to be quite large, I did not cut and remove any photos or pages from the magazine, otherwise the picture would not be complete. Moreover, each page is permeated with love. I looked at black and white archival photos in a magazine and saw pictures of my parents. I will definitely take this idea into account and make a similar family magazine. I can’t even imagine how pleasant and reverent it is to hold such a gift in your hands. Click on the photo, there is a lot of heat.
So, as I already wrote, on my wedding day, which coincided with my mother's birthday, I gave her an unforgettable gift - congratulations magazine.
A couple of months before the wedding, when I had already begun to think about the magazine, I ordered family photo session. It consisted of four stories. The first is staged family and portrait photos against the background of an old building (for some reason I really love it), the general style is elegant and solemn. The second is a conversation in a cafe with tea and cookies (the well-known Madeleine coped with this mission). The third is shopping and 5 beautiful women against the backdrop of the Big City :), the general style is bright casual. The fourth is a picnic with the family. The purpose of the photo shoot was to capture our warm family relationship. Even if for some reason it hadn’t been possible to make a magazine, I’m glad that this shooting took place. I still enjoy looking at these photos :)
Then I sent out a text to all my relatives and my mother's friends available to me with a request to write a congratulation for her, perhaps memories of her, life stories, etc. With the same request, I called those who are within the transport reach. When it came time to get the rest of the contacts, I had to play spy. Got the password for her email. Gently, while she does not see, I copied the phones I needed from her mobile. It was very pleasant and somehow proud of her to read warm words about her. Many of the memories that were sent to me, I did not know before. For example, how they dabbled with their younger brothers as children. Everyone was so eager to respond to my requests, it was touching and joyful.
Gradually, I prepared photos from the family archive for scanning. Also, at night or in my mother's absence, I turned over a million family photos, we have a lot of them, I carried thick and heavy family albums with me in my bag. The most difficult thing - writing my congratulations - I kept putting it off. For some reason, it’s not easy for me to talk about love to those closest to me, even on paper. But I had something to say and something to thank for, therefore, unexpectedly for me, the lines of congratulations were written easily and by themselves. Then it was a matter of technique - to arrange the sheets of the magazine. Needless to say, it's a rather labor intensive process. But at the same time, there is no work more rewarding than this.
The log structure looks like this:
1. Introductory article "World Harmony Day"
2. Photos from childhood, with parents and brothers, then congratulations from three brothers with photos, one spread (and sometimes more) for each.
3. Photo from a photo shoot
4. A love story on two spreads in photographs and poems. My parents met at school, studied in the same class, at the same institute, so I know firsthand about eternal love :)
5. Photo from a photo shoot.
6. Congratulations from children, i.e. from the three of us, also with centerfold photos for each.
7. Photo from a photo shoot.
8. Congratulations from the grandchildren, there are also three of them. While I was designing their page, the phrase “children are the flowers of life” was spinning in my thoughts, and I thought that my mother had collected a good bouquet :) And such “flowers” turned out from photographs.
