5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome-Must Have even for non-scrapbookers, August 31, 2005

Jessica Lane "Jessi" (Texas) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Decorative Journals: Step-by-Step Projects (Paperback)

This is one of the best craft books to come along in a long time. A ton of creative ideas to display memorobilia and pictures. Effective directions and if you have a question on how to complete a project, the author is more than happy to answer the questions. I bought all 3 in this series and I would recommend it to everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very enjoyable, September 30, 2005

Two Cents - See all my reviews

This review is from: Decorative Journals: Step-by-Step Projects (Paperback)

This book is well put together and enjoyable to browse. It is full of creative ideas that make you want to get to work (or play) and do something with that beautiful patterned paper you have. There are 25 different ideas for creative journals or books and nice instructions for each. I've already picked out five I want to do first. I am thoroughly enjoying this book.

This review is from: Decorative Journals: Step-by-Step Projects (Paperback)

"Uncharted Territory" is true! Donna Downey can do things you never would have imagined with ordinary household objects and scrapbooking materials. I couldn't put this book down -- I stayed up all night reading it, marking projects to make. So much inspiration -- so much fun! So nice that she also offers step-by-step instructions, unlike many books and magazines that just give you product lists and expect you to figure out everything on your own. Very well-done.

The book has great ideas, but I also have her book titled, "Yes, It's a Scrapbook". It has the exact same ideas. I felt cheated that I bought a book with the same information.
