This review is from: Stamping Tricks for Scrapbooks: A Guide for Enhancing Your Pages with Stamps (Paperback)

I found this book to be very interesting. It had techiniques i was already familiar with ( creating and ebossed stamp), but it also had sometechiniques like oragami phot corners which i though was so cool to use fo rmy scrapbook on my trip to china. I think it is useful for beginners as they search for various ideas, it is an inspirational book that will help with basic techiniques with stamps and thier versitile uses.

i only gave it three starts b/c it did not wow me the way other books on scrapbooking techniques have and the directions are a little vague in some instances.
