The Amazing Page: 650 New Scrapbook Page Ideas, Tips And Techniques

This 224 page book is filled with innovative ideas for scrapbooking. Designed for traditional scrapbookers, it is still a wealth of ideas that can be imitated by anyone adept with their own digital scrapbooking software. Most pages contain two illustrations of contributor's scrap pages. These well-laid-out examples provide a list of needed materials for those who wish to produce a traditional scrapbook, and will inspire digital scrapbookers to create professional looking digital pages. I thumb through this book when I need a new idea for pages. I have a good working knowledge of Adobe Photoshop CS4 and use that program to create my pages, backgrounds and embellishments. For helpful suggestions on how to make backgrounds and embellishments I use Creative Scrapbooking With Your Computer also by Memory Makers Books.

If you are looking for a book to help you create Amazing Pages then look no further. You have found it. I have used this book to create pages that others Ohhed and Awwed over. This is my new go to book. Everyone at the crop wanted to know where I got my ideas. I showed them and told them where to go to get the best price on this book.

This is a book of ideas not a how to book. The photos of different pages is a wonderful compilation of ideas brought to fruition. The individual contributors have given a list of what they used to create the page at the end of each picture.

I'm an aspiring scrapbooker and he Memory Makers books have been an invaluable source of inspiration for me. The freedom of expression unleashed in this volume collected from Memory Makers contributors is staggering and a far cry from the traditional layout and design techniques I learned so many years ago. The editors have compiled the collection in five chapter organized "by the most popular topics seen in scrapbooks". Both analog and digital designs are displayed. While mos certainly not a how-to book, each page does have a listing of the materials used, which is helpful. Many of the pages harbor a very personal gestalt, the sum of the parts becoming an inseparable whole. Going through here, I am inundated with ideas, restrained only by the knowledge that I must crawl before I walk. This collection (and the additional materials on the CD) provide me with a good part of the education I need.Jerry

I found this to be a great springboard for scrapbooking ideas. I borrowed this book from the library and just had to have it. It's packed with pages on a huge variety of topics by some of Memory Makers best scrappers. If you're looking for fresh scrapbooking ideas such as you'd get from magazines, you'll like this book. I'm a die hard scrapbooker and have been for several years and I really enjoyed this book.

This book is somewhat helpful but not exactly what I expected. I was ecxpecting the layouts of the pages along with the picture of the finished product. Overall it did serve the purpose for me in a sense, and that was to give me other ideas on how to do pages for my book.

I really enjoy this book. Filled with ideas, I find myself returning over and over again for inspiration. Some readers have mentioned too many embellishments. I must confess that I am one that loves a page chock full of decorations, so if you are a fan of less, this might not be to your liking. This is one of my favorite books....

I was so excited to be able to get this book on my Kindle. I am making a scrapbook for my daughters wedding. I was so disappointed in this book. The ideas are nothing like I wanted. If I could delete it, I would. I wish I had previewed more pages, but I didn't. I am on a fixed income and this was a big waste of money. I won't do this again. I will go to a craft store and actually look at the book...sorry.

Plein de bonnes idées et des pages créatives. Je l'ai acheté usagé il vaut amplement son prix d'achat. Je le recommande à tous, débutant et avancé. Portez attention aux détails c'est là qu'on trouve de belles idées

This book is stuffed full of gorgeous layouts all grouped by theme. It has provided me with delicious bedtime reading as I went through each and every page and then serious inspiration as I dip into it when I'm stuck for ideas. Great for those who have been scrapbooking for a while and want fresh designs to incorporate. Equally great for beginners who want to see finished products (not an instruction guide for beginners though).

Bought this as a gift for my wife ( to add to her collection!!!) she was delighted. She said it is one of the best books she has read on scrapbooking, she hasn't looked at the cd yet she is still working her way through the book.

Very nicely written. Photos and ideas are very nice. It will inspire me when ever I need an idea for my pages.

Habe mein Buch Ende November bestellt...und es kam erst Mitte Januar bei mir an. Leider war das Cover hinten angerissen und die dazugehörige CD-Rom fehlte :-(
