Customer Reviews

Simply the best
This is the best scrapbooking book I've read so far. It covers basic design principles, how to take great pictures and how to crop them, journaling, scrapbooking space and organization, embellishments, choosing a scrapbook that's right for you, choosing colors, fonts/handwriting and much more. It's by the makers of Simple Scrapbooks magazine, so the designs are simple, clean and contemporary.

I highly recommend this book to beginners and experienced scrapbookers alike. It rocks.

Kick-Started My Scrapbooking
I wanted to begin scrapping with a chronicle of our family vacation in a few weeks. But I didn't want to take a class. So, I bought this book, which is a wonderful compilation of articles from Simple Scrapbooks.

I couldn't have asked for better examples of the wonders of scrapbooking! It became clear right away that scrapbooking is not just putting pictures in a pretty and logical format. It's about recording memories, sharing who we and others we care about are, and chronicling the meaning of our lives.

The abundant examples of scrapbook pages show many techniques and layouts. But, more importantly, this book helps you solidify in your mind the things you want to say about those you love, in words and pictures. I'm happy to say I've already completed my first scrapbook page, on swimming lessons for my granddaughters in preparation for vacation. Next week: Mother's Day. I got some great shots!

Terrific
After seeing so many scrapbook magazines and books, it is amazing to find something "new", with plenty of ideas and easy to follow. I would definitely recommend it.
