Scrapbook Books

The Big Picture...scrapbooking Your Life And More by Stacy Julian. This book, by Simple Scrapbooks, is a great guide to scrapbooking family pictures and how to pick a theme and sort out the unnecessary.

Quick & Easy Scrapbook Pages: 100 Scrapbook Pages You Can Make in One Hour or Less by Memory Makers. This is a great book for when you feel "scrapper's block." Although I found that it took a little longer than an hour to make some of the pages, it's a great resource for inspiration.*

Ribbonrie Ribbonrie by Jayme Shepherd (Editor) and Skylar Nielsen (Photographer). One of my favorite craft books. You'll be amazed by the things you can do and make with ribbon. It has a section on scrapbooking ideas as well.*

Encyclopedia Of Scrapbooking by Tracy White. If you want a jillion great scrapbook ideas all at once, this is the book to get. Very informative.*

Embroidery on Paper by Erica Fortgens. Stitching on scrapbook layouts is very big and this book can help you join that trend. You can also learn to make other paper crafts that will have your friends "oohing" and "ahhing."

Clean And Simple Scrapbooking: Ideas for Design, Photography, Journaling & Typography by Cathy Zielske. This book is for the person who wants a clean "less is more" look rather than a dressed up embellishment-crazy look. It will help you get that sleek designer look for your scrapbooks.
