Product Description

Avid crafters have known that scrapbooks have spawned an enormous number of unique and beautiful supplies, tools, and techniques that can be used to create hundreds of fabulous gifts, home decorations, jewelry and more.

Using scrapbook supplies, you can publish your own book; design your own cards, calendars and stationary; decorate frames, lampshades or coasters for your home; design your own jewelry using metal snaps, charms, and beads, and create the look of decoupage on candles, magnets, and trays with fantastic results. Set aside your stencils and use die-cuts to decorate rooms, doors, and mirrors; make your own jewelry, napkin holders, and tiebacks using ribbons and twill, and create holiday decorations and ornaments in minutes. And that is just the beginning.

In all, there are 25 how-to projects with step-by-step instruction, followed by variations of other materials that can be substituted. It is the perfect book for scrapbookers, paper artists, memory artists and crafters.

This book inspires creativity!5
This book is so pretty to simply look through for inspiration. The layout and color photos are absolutley beautiful. Many of the materials for the projects are inexpensive or I already have them on hand from scrap booking and card making. It is a great book to gather creative ideas from. Most of the techniques are not difficult but the results are beautiful. I thoroughly enjoy paging through the book for ideas and inspiration.
