A book to get you to think outside your scrapping "comfort zone"
I love this book. It is not a how-to manual for beginning scrapbookers, but rather a group of prompts for you to think in new ways about this hobby and how you can make it more meaningful and personal by taking it in some new directions.

The Scrapbooking Journey
As an avid scrapbooker I was wanting a book that would help me with my spiritual journey. I purchased this book for doing just that; it provides eight major areas: resonance, equilibrium, movement, awareness, expression, awakening, celebration and connection.

The only thing I was disappointed with was the lack of colour photos, instead they had just been included in a special section of the book. Otherwise, a good book worth a read.
