Life is filled with thrills—and sometimes a mass-produced, commercially available scrapbook just isn’t exciting or unique enough for the events it’s celebrating. What’s a scrapbooker to do? Create something original! These 25 inventive projects offer expressive ways to preserve, showcase, and share the good times. Craft a book from recipe cards to preserve fond family food memories, from big holiday dinners to that precious time spent baking cookies with Mom. Make an album out of driftwood to commemorate a vacation by the beach. Stitch up a single-signature pamphlet out of old sewing patterns for a sewing or quilting journal; glue a cloth measuring tape into the cover to use as a bookmark. You won’t find ideas like these anywhere else!

This review is from: The Adventurous Scrapbooker: Creating Wonderful Scrapbooks from Almost Anything (Hardcover)
I've been eagerly waiting for my copy of The Adventurous Scrapbooker to arrive in the mail and today was my lucky day.
My expectations were seriously surpassed. With the help of scrapbooking and journal keeping luminaries such as Claudine Hellmuth and Steph McAtee, Ms. Aimone has created a passport/guidebook to some heretofore unexplored scrapbooking frontiers. With themes running the gamut from a Grandmother's Voyage to Israel, to the Doors of Prague and Rwanda 2005, and via scrapbooks created from a wooden soapbox, an old Boy Scout First Aid tin, and a reticulated paper doll, we are inspired to think in terms of the unexpected and unusual; even the cast-off detritus of everyday life can be transformed into a scrapbook or journal worth returning to time and again. Although the focus is definitely on colorful photos of each scrapbook, detailed supply lists and a step-by-step process for creating a similar presentation are included.

This review is from: The Adventurous Scrapbooker: Creating Wonderful Scrapbooks from Almost Anything (Hardcover)
Amazingly wonderful images and ideas abound in this superbly documented and organized book. Once again Katherine Aimone has done it. As in her other books, she has chosen the "best of the best" projects and presented her audience with readable and clear directions. No other scrapbooking book can outdo this one in creativity and imagery. A clear winner!
