5.0 out of 5 stars Fresh ideas from talented local designers, 27 May 2005
By Makintracks "Makintracks" (North Yorkshire, UK) - See all my reviews
This book is testimony to the wonderful and unique talent of British scrapbookers and will be a great source of inspiration to local scrappers, scrappers in the USA and further afield.

Each layout is accompanied by handy tips and information about the supplies used. The best part is that you don't just get to see one layout from each of the winners, but a selection, and this truly showcases the abilities of each of the very worthy winners in this competition. Inspiration does not end here though - there is a gallery of layouts from additional designers who received an honourable mention and layouts by the judges.

There is a lovely variety of styles and enthusiastic scrappers will not be able to wait long before trying some of the wonderful ideas. Whether you prefer simple layouts or truly artistic creations, you will definitely find this book a handy scrapbooking companion.

The card making section at the end of the book encompasses around 10 pages and the ideas are equally as useful whether you are a scrapper or card maker. As a special bonus, one of the judges has even written a guide to winning scrapbooking contests, so if you are dying to have a go, this guide will certainly set you on your way. Shimelle Laine, the author of the aforementioned article, knows a thing or two about winning competitions too - she is a member of the Creating Keepsakes Hall of Fame and the Paperkuts Power Team.

This book represents great value for money.

5.0 out of 5 stars inspirational!, 26 Feb 2006
By J. Mccann "swissjannie" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I picked up this book to get inspiration for card making, little realising that I was to become a scrapbooking addict! I love it - there is some real British talent around in this American-dominated hobby. Lots of classy ideas to make your memories long lasting.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Brilliant Inspirational book, 6 Jul 2005
By K. Young "craftyness" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This is a must for anyone into scrapbooking, beginner or advanced. The designs are beautiful and simplistic too. There are some more artistic ones for the advanced scrapbooker too. The tips and techniques are very good and give you so many more ideas. You can't go wrong with this book and if you are a cardmaker too then there are a few examples at the back. But this book is mainly for scrapbookers.There is even an article on how to win scrapbooking competitions!
