Customer Reviews

Great for beginners

This book is great if you are new to scrapbooking. It will quickly acquaint you with the techniques needed to make beautiful layouts. After you read through it a few times, however, and practice the designs that interest you the most, this book tends to stay tucked away on the shelf. The techniques and layouts used in this book are simple enough that you can remember it without having to refer to the book. If you only scrapbook a few times a year, this book would be a great buy. However, if you scrapbook often then save yourself the money and just go to the library to find these ideas.

Very good book, a little weak on pictures.

This book I found very informative, and it had some really great ideas. I would have liked it to have had more pictures to go along with the instructions, rather than just the final result showing, but all in all, it was worth the money to get it.

An Artistic and Inspiring Book, Stuffed with Unique Ideas!

This book really inspired me to try different techniques and to use things on my pages that I never would have imagined. It walks you through the steps and products to help you become a expert scrapbooker and the ideas are easily incorporated into anyones book. It definatly a must have!

Great source for ideas on laying out old family photo.

I have found this book to be helpful in laying out my photo pages. Many sources have great ideas for current photos, but few offer so many tips for older photos. Most people will be able to find ideas from this book that they can use in their own book.
