Product Review

Scrapbookers thrive on seeing sample layouts to inspire them, and this book compiles a wide array of outstanding designs they can "scraplift" and use in their own projects. Compiled by the editors of Creating Keepsakes scrapbook magazine, the featured layouts cover the most popular scrapbooking themes (from babies to sporting events and holidays) and deal with a wide variety of elements (from layouts and journaling to photography and supplies). The Reader Gallery section shows how real-life scrapbookers have used a wide variety of styles and techniques. The Seasonal Solutions section presents scrapbooking themes that reflect family life all through the year. There also are articles on simple strategies that take scrapbook pages from "blah" to "ahh!"
