Great book for beginners and the seasoned scrapper

Review Date: March 10, 2006

This spiral bound book offers a wealth of information. If you need ideas about how to get your workspace and photos organized, tools, page design and techniques and journaling this is the book you need. The chapter on photography gives many options about taking that perfect shot. I'm not very good at journaling so the chapter on this subject has saved me from becoming frustrated with writer's block and offers numerous choices to make your page complete. A well thought out and organized book and well worth the money.

This book has many great ideas for layouts. I have plans to scrapbook this summer and this book will get me started.

A little outdated

Reviewer: Big time reader, Kansas City, MO USA

I bought this book as a gift for my young niece to give her a starting point for scrapbooking. I ended up getting her a different book because this one is a little outdated and doesn't mention a lot of products currently in use for scrapping (tape runners for example). It is just because scrapbooking has advanced quickly the last few years I guess. But I kept the book for myself because it has some nice page ideas.

I have better books

This book is ok if you are a beginner.
Some ideas are quite old fashioned, I prefer the "Encyclopedia of Scrapbooking" instead...
