A refreshing outlook on scrapbooking

I have just started this wonderful hobby of scrapbooking, and this book has opened my eyes to all the possibilities out there. The typical things that one would think to scrap (weddings, birthdays, holidays and so forth) can limit our options. This book shows how real life is made up of everyday moments more than yearly events, and encourages you to record them: how your children are growing, things people say, things that you like (and dislike!), quirks and habits that you have... The artwork is wonderful. I've gotten a lot of ideas from Nic's layouts. I absolutely recommend this book if you need a boost of inspiration, if you've ran out of ideas, or just if you (like me) love to flip through books and delight your eyes with beautiful layouts.

That's Life...

is must-have for scrapbookers. We take pictures of the big things, birthdays, holidays, etc. but 95% of our lives are the little things and if we scrap some of those, later on we'll remember more than this Christmas or that birthday. This book gets you thinking, and it helps you realize how grateful you are for some of the little things in your life.

inspirational

Love this book!! I knew I would like the layouts, Nic Howard's work is always immaculate and beautiful. What I didn't know was how much inspiration I would get from it. I am flooded with an abundance of ideas to scrap every time I open it, and because of the nature of her writing I find myself flicking back to previously read pages frequently, to re-admire her work or to reignite an idea or thought. Hands down, the best scrapping book I have bought.That's Life: Finding Scrapbook Inspiration in the Everyday

My new favorite scrapbooking idea book!

Seriously. This book is awesome! It is my new favorite book, and believe me, I have pretty much EVERY book about scrapbooking (including all the DW books). You will love Nic's journaling and her ideas for getting inspiration from everyday life, but even more, her art will blow you away! -Debbi T

totally inspiring!

This book is a MUST OWN. Especially for those who struggle with journaling, or are like me and love to scrapbook the everyday. Not only are the pages beautiful, but the author shares so much of her 'ordinary' life and makes it into something extraordinary. Of course the contributors also add to the interest and depth of the book too. I can't recommend it enough! Memory Makers Books has not let me down in the last few months- this is no exception. Nic Howard is fabulous and I hope she authors another book!
