Although the biggest buyers of the books are now scrapbookers, everyone likes the fact that the books are so versatile. Each book includes lettering tips and tricks for using pens and markers, a paintbrush, needle and thread, or tracing and photocopying the expressions and illustrations.

If you get stuck for ideas, the inside cover of every book includes a list of 99 Places to Put an Expression.

You don't have to drive yourself crazy anymore trying to think up the right words. All three books each include life's most popular themes, such as family, friendship, holidays, home, inspiration, love, over the hill, photo quips and more. Book #3 also includes extra expressions for cat and dog lovers, golfing, fishing, profound proverbs and a Memory Lane page. Book #3 now also includes a page with four longer poems. To date our studies show all 3 books sell equally as well.

About the Author

Sandy Redburn's dedication to inspiring others creativity includes writing, publishing and teaching seminars scince 1993. As the author of the Heartwarming Expressions Books, Sandy admits to being addicted to creating new expressions but promises to stop now at 500 (actually this book has over 500. She owns two rhyming dictionaries and also loves to use great quotes from Miss Piggy to Shakespeare. Although she loves doing some of the lettering of the expressions Sandy saved all the real fancy lettering and artwork for Suzanne Carillo and Shelly Ehbrecht and she says it's their talented work that has added special personality to every page in this book.

Shelly Ehbrecht's speciality is in her wonderful lettering and she has contributed greatly to this book from its birth, helping to make it all possible. Shelly enjoys teaching folk art painting classes and is also an RN at a maternity hospital.

Suzanne Carillo is a multi-talented artist who was brought on board in 1999 to help with the illustrations and artistic lettering in this book. Now in this revised edition Suzannes's whimsical and humorous artwork and hand-lettering grace so many pages, her name has been added to the cover. Suzanne works as a freelance artist.

This review is from: Another 425 Heartwarmin' Expressions For Crafting, Painting, Stitching and Scrapbooking. Book # 3 (Spiral-bound)

Fans of the previous 2 "Heartwarming Expressions for Crafting..." will not be disappointed in this third volume. I loved the new entries on the past themes and also enjoyed the 2 NEW themes: "Profound Proverbs" and "Photo Quips". This is a 'must-have' for all crafters who like to add a message to their products! I'm looking forward to the next and the next and the next....

This review is from: Another 500 Heartwarming Expressions For Crafting and Scrapbooking (Paperback)

I love this book. I will never be at a loss for words, titles or sayings again. Great for a scrapbooker, card maker or even a general crafter.
The best thing about all these books is there is a lot of content so, you will never run out of creative ideas ... all you need is your imagination and a Heartwarming Expressions Book.
