just bought this book yesterday. I'm still rather new to scrapping, and I'm trying to get better at my layouts and to have some pages that really pop at you. Most of mine has been real simple (which is fine) but I really admire those spectacular pages! I believe those type of pages come from practice, but also some basic skills lessons help.
I found this book to have some basic info on paper piecing that I was unaware of. It also has somehow to's that a beginner may not have figured out how to turn a simple page into one that can "pop". Does that make sense?
This book also contains six Paper Pizazz papers that are exclusive to this book. They include Bouncing Tigger, Pooh faces, fall leaves Piglet, Pooh's favorite things, Mickey silhouette on red. and blue Mickey tiles.
It explains how to take a layout of one design (Pooh) and use another theme (Mickey). It has examples of the pages done both ways, which I found nice. I am not very creative, and need some basic help and hints that it gave in the pages. I also have another Disney layout book that I like, but for ma a beginner with no imagination, I found this book very helpful. It even shows you how to design a 8X11 page and turn it into a 12X12.
I paid $19.00 @ Michael's, wish I had used a coupon, but I would buy it again!
