On any scrapbook page, the pictures really only tell half the story. A short but expressive journal entry or caption is just as important for capturing a special memory. Scrapbookers know this and are constantly looking for ways to make it easier and less time consuming. Popular scrapbook columnist Joanna Campbell Slan shows how to capture stories as they're happening using simple one-minute journaling methods. She then shows how to get those stories onto album pages with a minimum of fuss and effort. For crafters who don't like their own handwriting, Slan illustrates several creative solutions using computer type, lettering templates, stencils and rubber stamps.

Don't just use photos, tell the STORY behind them!,

This review is from: One Minute Journaling (Scrapbook Storytelling) (Paperback)
This is a WONDERFUL book! It's just beautiful and a real pleasure to look through. I'm a beginning scrapbooker and I must admit that I'm more into journaling than scrapbooking (I'm not very artistic or creative and I'm better with words than with cutting and pasting!<g>). You really get to know the author through this book. This is not just a book of ideas for scrapbooking - it's really about the philosophy behind scrapbooking, and the reason for it. The ideas are really good, and I learned a tremendous amount from this book. But I think even more than that, I was inspired to venture out in my own writing on my scrapbook pages!

Fantastic resource for scrapbookers!,

Joanna Campbell Slan continues to publish books of real substance for scrapbookers. In ONE MINUTE JOURNALING she packs each page with colorful examples and explains how the page was made (with list of supplies!). Her journaling ideas are both practical and useful. I particularly loved the page she did for her friend who had lost the cat she loved. She created a wonderful effect with rubber stamps, punches, and vellum to make a window scene with a shadowy cat; I would never have thought of crimping vellum to create a window blind! I know I will use this book a lot.
