5.0 out of 5 stars A great book to start scrapbooking with., November 17, 2003

By	R. L. Hawkins "book_lover_24" (New Haven, IN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

There were many things I enjoyed about this book. It gives many clear and not cluttered examples. It is very easy to understand along with providing different uses for the basic scrapbooking supplies. The pictures were great and I would not classify this as a childrens book either.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Beginner Book, January 23, 2003

By	Cris Cunningham "loves to read" (Long island, NY) - See all my reviews

What I like most about this book is that it presents the basics of scrapbooking in a well-written, simplistic format. All of the essential elements that experienced adult scrappers use are introduced page-by-page on a beginner's level. There are also many lettering and die cut examples to use, as well as simple lay outs to jump start one's creativity. i would not classify this as a "kids" book, but rather a primer on the art of scrapbooking. Well written and very colorful (something kids of all ages can appreciate!).

This is a great book for the kids to get ideas and has great layout ideas. You can even provide feedback and get a small gift. There is step by step instructions on how the kids can get started complete with lettering and croping.
