I love this book!!! (2010-05-09) : 5/5
I received this book really fast from Amazon and I love it. Each page in the book has lots of ideas and it has been really helping me scrapbook better.
....so much more than a "how-to" book. (2010-05-07) : 5/5
I received this book yesterday and immediately started looking through it. As a brand new scrapbooker, I believe it's important for a book to get your creativity flowing. This book goes way beyond a normal how-to book. It challenges you to take inspiration from daily things and gives examples of what the author (love her!) and other contributors did. I can honestly say that the scrapbook page I created last night is leaps and bounds more creative because it was based on one of the ideas in this book. Bravo to Lizzy for being upbeat, honest, and admitting that even she sometimes feels uncreative... and for giving beautiful examples on how to kick start your creativity. I've been scrapbooking for about 6 months and have TONS to learn. This book isn't going to tell you to cut a 4X6 piece of patterned paper, place embellishments in exact places or give you specific patterns to follow. However it IS going to get you to focus on what makes scrapbooking so enjoyable - and that is how to combine artistic elements, photos, and journaling to make a page that will be significant FOR YOU - which makes it a great book for advanced scrapbookers, too. For even more awesome ideas, Lizzy has a very cool blog.
