Bestsellers Scrapbooking Book

I love browsing through scrapbooking books for ideas and tip.

Seeing those photos will sparks ideas for me to try out. I like to order mine from Amazon store because I can browse through many titles in one place. The bookstore near my area does does not carry many craft books so I normally turn to online stores if I want to buy them. Granted that they will take sometimes to arrive but I can get the titles that I want from the comfort of my home.

You can search through the store by typing “craft book” or “scrapbooking”. It will return many titles for you to check out. I normally check the bestsellers items for fast reference. If you are looking for bestsellers in scrapbooking book, you have to be in the main homepage of Amazon Store, select Books> Bestsellers> Home & Garden> Craft & Hobbies > Scrapbooking.

Scrapbooking Your Favorite Family Memories – I Love This Book

I’m always on the lookout for ideas for scrapbooking project.

Sometimes, I found nice scrapbooking books that I can use as a reference and I’d purchased it for my little library. I purchased this book in 2006 when I went to Santa Rosa, US for some job assignment. Yup, it was sometimes ago..

It is a hardcover book and pretty heavy too. My friends just couldn’t understand why I want to buy it and lug it all the way back home.

This book was published sometimes in 2003 (if I’m not mistaken) so don’t expect it to mention the latest scrapbooking tools in it.

I bought this book because it has lots of pictures illustrating the techniques that the authors was talking about. That’s the plus point that won me over. I’m a picture person, so this will surely help me understanding the techniques that being discussed.

Scrapbooking Your Favorite Family Memories

This book does not have many step by step guide but the photos showing the examples will surely give a lots of ideas. It’s too bad that some of the tools and material being discussed is not available in my areas, so I’ve since learnt to adapt and be flexible in my scrapbooking project

In my opinion, beginners and advance scrapbooker will find lots of inspiration by going through pages and pages of ideas for doing creative scrapbooking. Some of the the creative ideas include photo cropping techniques such as kaleidoscope pattern, how to vary photo framing, slicing, sillhouettes and many more.

I learn a lot of new things by reading this book and surely my scrapbooking vocabulary improved a lot :)

What is your best scrapbooking book that you use for your reference?
