Media Relations: Gretchen Sloan, 650-610-5276 gsloan@Shutterfly.com or Investor Relations: Marilyn Lattin, 650-610-5853 mlattin@shutterfly.com Today from the Craft & Hobby Association Summer Convention & Trade Show, Shutterfly, Inc. (NASDAQ:SFLY), the leading Internet-based social expression and personal publishing service, unveiled "Digital Studio," a new online scrapbooking educational resource with Big Picture Scrapbooking, the worldwide leader

in online scrapbooking education.

Digital Studio is a new online educational resource that makes it easy and fun for consumers to learn about digital scrapbooking, photobooking and photography.

Class participants will also learn to make personalized digiscrap greeting cards and scrapbook pages created from free online kits.

"With digital scrapbooks accounting for one in ten of all photo books posted to Shutterfly Gallery, the creativity and craftsmanship of digiscrappers has really inspired the Shutterfly community," said Kathryn Olson, chief marketing officer of Shutterfly. Because digital scrapbooks consistently top our "make one like this" list, we know our customers are interested in further exploring this hobby themselves. Together with Big Picture Scrapbooking, we are pleased to offer our customers an online resource where they can learn from step-by-step tutorials about digital scrapbooking and how to take better pictures."

"We have teamed up with Shutterfly to launch a digital studio that will provide us with dedicated space to teach and enjoy classes for beginning digital scrapbookers," says Stacy Julian, founding partner of Big Picture Scrapbooking. "I'm thrilled to have the power and experience of Shutterfly on our side. They are dedicated to storytelling and supporting scrapbookers in general with comprehensive online services and quality printing solutions."

By partnering with Big Picture Scrapbooking, Shutterfly builds upon its commitment to the scrapbooking community, which began with Shutterfly's industry-leading printing solutions for digital scrapbookers and the formation of the Shutterfly Scrapbooking Advisory Board.
