SCRAPBOOKING ON A BUDGET is a 47 page book chock full of pages of completed scrapbook pages that will help you decide how to create pages for your own scrapbooks.

The book tells you how to use up your "left-overs" to create clever ideas for the pages and how to get the most out of the materials you do have. With each scrapbook page, the have suggestions listed and tell you how the page was created. The authors have listed different tricks and tips throughout. Also, by reading the completed page itself, you can gain different ideas and those ideas might just trigger other ideas!

If you are looking for suggestions and ideas to use in creating your own special pages, then SCRAPBOOKING ON A BUDGET will provide you with so many you won't know where to start! There are not step-by-step instructions on how to create an exact copy of each and every page in the book, only approximately one-third of the pages, but still, you will have so much information on how to make pages that you won't need to have the whole book tell you how. Besides, scrapbooking is all about creating your own thing.

I was pleasantly surprised by the book. There were a lot of beautiful projects that could be made. My only complaint was that the book is shorter than most scrapbooks I've viewed.
