This is one of those craft books you start patting as you leaf through its pages and it increasingly seduces you with its colours, ideas and images. I am going to reverse this review, and start at the back first: the list of templates is outstanding! A good 50 pages of reinforced, glossy, colour cardboard ready to pop out like a sticker-book straight into your scrapbook projects, it is amazing value just for that. The book itself is a spiral bound hardcover, making for easy-open use (and tracing from the variety of alphabet templates). There are two sections on techniques, one on basics and the other on more complicated and developed skills. In the first section, some of the ideas are so inspired in their simplicity and effectiveness I cannot believe I haven't learnt them before - for example, squirting shaving foam into a shallow tray, applying ink to the surface in swirls over it, and carefully laying paper on top, to blot the paper with a colourful abstract design. The third section of the book elaborates on ten special projects, giving you a "knee-up" into ideas for greeting cards and gift tags, a chain of postcards, or photo album. It goes without saying, the design of this book is tailored with the care of the most delicate of scrapbooks, and reads with the same visual pleasure.

Turn treasured keepsakes into works of art using imaginative techniques and materials to create unique pages, greeting cards, altered books and framed layouts for display.

Following the phenomenal success of The Complete Book of Scrapbooking & Papercraft, The Complete Book of Creative Scrapbooking offers inspirational ideas, techniques and projects for scrapbookers who have already mastered the basic skills, using the same magical mix of step-by-step projects and free stencils as its predecessor.
