Customer Reviews

very good
I really liked this one, unlike another "digital" one I got which was actually about paper (Point and Click Scrapbooking). This one is 100% digital with lots of ideas and layouts to snag ideas from. One of the best things about it is that it doesn't waste pages with projects that I would never do. It's just page after page of full color wonderful layouts showcasing a subject/concept/idea. There are a few pages on equipment and such, but not enough to deter from the layouts/ideas.

Great layouts
Creative Scrapbooking has given me some food for thought. Any scrapbooker has to hit a mental block from time to time, looking through the beautiful work of others sparks new ideas for our own work. If you are an experienced user of Photoshop, this book is a good fit. A beginner would have difficulty deciphering the brief instructions on how to put things together. But anyone can benefit from the wealth of ideas presented in these beautiful compositions. I teach Photoshop and Digital Scrapbooking and am happy to have this among my reference books.
