Customer Reviews

Definitely a Keeper

I rarely take the time to write a review, but this book deserved my taking a little time out of my day. I have MANY scrapbooking books, but I have to say that this is one of my favorites, as it incorporates many of the best tips and techniques I've seen in other books all in one place. The layouts, although not as profuse as in other books, are inspiring and different. I would definitely recommend this book.

Great Book

This book had some very nice ideas. They range in complexity. I love this book!

Best scrapbooking book I've seen - full of inspiration!

I've read a great number of books about scrapbooking, but this book is absolutely the best one I've seen. The first part of the book is dedicated to basic scrapbooking technique and tips, and the rest deals with techniques and themes. Beautiful layouts are consistent throughout the whole book, and you'll be inspired by every page. The book features many unique techniques such as kaleidoscoping (I've never seen that anywhere else), as well as many others that are more common, but still done to perfection here (embossing, pin-holing, layering, and many more).Overall, this book is very good in terms of inspiration, instruction, and ideas. An ideal gift for an aspiring scrapbooker, or a veteran who could use a few new tricks.

I'm so inspired!

I borrowed this book from the library and I couldn't put it down! The pages shown are beautiful, and most look attainable, even to a beginner like myself. There isn't an excess of text, which I liked (I own another scrapbooking book that is so chatty that I wonder when we'll get to the scrapbooking!). But, several of the more advanced techniques are described in more detail. Now that I've read it, I'm going to buy it for continuing inspiration.

Great Scrapbooks, Ideas, Tips & Techniques

I love anything that Memory Makers puts out....and their work gets better and better. My neighbor is always the first to get their books. When I saw this I HAD to have it. I recently got my kaleidescope published in the last Memory Makers Magazine. Memory Makers had the best booth last year at the Great American Scrapbook Convention in Arlington, Texas and I look forward to visiting with Michele Gerbrandt again this year. Again, their material is the best on the market--and the highest quality I have found.
