I bought it for my wife and and I (both newbie scrappers) and it came in about two days ago! The book is fantastic. It looks at all the different possible layouts and the inspiration behind each one. Its so hard to find such a well laid out and organized book on how to scrap, that when I saw this one and realized how simple scrapping can be I was ecstatic.

If you are new or old to scrapping, this book is a must. The pictures are adorable as well...bonus!

I received my copy today and can't put it down. It is a wonderful "sketches" book for both beginners or seasoned scrapbookers. I have taken several of Hillary's classes and she is outstanding!

Hillary has such a refreshing way of using simple colors, shapes and swirls to allow your pages to look wonderful but still have the primary focus be on your photographs.

This book allows her to see her completed pages and those of some guest artists. They discuss the hows and whys of keeping your ideas simple.

This book is for those of you who wish to get a jumpstart on your albums using her simple but truly elegant designs.
