Book Description

September 1, 2007
Becky Higgins is well known for her beautiful page designs, classic and timeless layouts, and her easy-to- follow scrapbook-page sketches. Becky states that it is so much easier to start a layout when you've got a great plan in place. It's easier to complete more layouts when you don't have to create your own design from scratch. And, it's easier to be creative with your page accents and color choices when you don't have to worry about whether or not your design is solid.

Not that Great October 5, 2007

I thought this book would contain more than just what was published in Creative Keepsakes magazine.

From what I had read on other sites it also contained her sketches from her first 2 books. It is a good book, a sketch is shown and you get to see layouts using it as inspiration.

I'm only giving it lower marks because the writing describing this book is misleading. What you are really getting are sketches from past CK issues.

If you have all of those magazines our better off just clipping them out yourself.

This is a great little book to keep right on your scrapbook table when you need fresh ideas. I have Becky's two other sketch books (which are great) and this one is as well. Becky did 200 new layouts for all of the sketch ideas she has come up with over the years. I like that the book has tabbed sections for the layouts that correspond with the number of photos you are using. For example, if you have 6 photos there is a section that has many different layouts using 6 photos. Becky incorporates a lot of the new product trends in this new sketch book.

Becky's previous books came out awhile ago with product that is hard or even impossible to purchase now and may include techniques that current scrapbookers find old. This book shows the same sketches but in a new way with up to date products -- it makes it more enjoyable to look through. Having all her sketches in one book is much easier instead of looking through the past two volumes and her articles in CK. This is definitely a great book to have for beginner and intermediate scrappers who don't have her other books. It's also nice to have for those who want an updated version of everything.

More good stuff from Becky
It isn't as useful as some of her previous work, but a great book for idea starters.

Love it!
I love this book. It's so great to have a book of her sketches all in one spot, organized by how many pictures I need to scrap. Make my job so much easier!

Great resource!
I have both of her other sketch books so I was hesitant. I'm so glad I bought this one because it contains new layouts for all of her sketches and I love her style.
