S. Fishburn said The fine Art of scrapbooking .. If you're a scrapbooker looking for new ideas & inspiration, then baby, have you picked the right book! If you're a collage artist & think you have nothing to learn from a book marketed to scrapbookers, think again!Erikia & Pamela have put together a treasure trove of fresh & fun techniques to keep both groups happily experimenting, thinking out of the box, & of course, creating their own fabulous pages & more, for scrapbooks, journals & framed art.From novel approaches to alteri. "cute and personable book" according to sweetyetevil. I really enjoy going through this book and I think the pics are great. Many of the projects are fun and different that most run of the mill craft books. I would have liked a bit more info on a few things in the book but overall I recommend it to beginners and seasoned crafters.. Four Stars no problems
