Book Reviews of The Scrapbook Designer's Workbook: Unlocking the Secrets to Great Page Design

Book Review: Firm on how to scrapbook, but that's what the book is for.
Summary: 5 Stars

I've read some critics on this book, saying that it was too firm on "how to scrapbook".

I think that's exactly the purpose of the book, teach some basic design rules to make a successful page.

If you like to make a page just following your instincts, then a designer's workbook is not the kind of book you are going to like most...

Yes, it's quite rigid. Yes, it's perfectionist.
If you want to produce a more "loose" page, than this book is not for you.

Nevertheless, this book is useful to, whatever your style, teach you how to make more equilibrate pages, considering the distribution of the photos, the colors, the textures, the lettering etc.

I found this book extremely useful for me, I use it all the time.
I recommend it if you want a more "professional" finish to your pages.

If you are a perfectionist, go ahead- you're gonna love it!!!

Summary of The Scrapbook Designer's Workbook: Unlocking the Secrets to Great Page Design

* A thorough yet simple understanding of the elements of design and the principles of design
* Covers basic color theory concepts including value, color language and color palette variations

It's an established fact that a well-designed page is the key to a beautiful scrapbook. Design principles and color theory can be intimidating. Well known Memory Makers magazine columnist Kari Hansen takes the fear and trepidation out of understanding and utilizing design principles and color theory so that all scrapbookers can feel comfortable with these concepts. Her unique ability to convey such concepts in a hands-on, user-friendly manner allows scrapbookers to unleash their own creativity while following established design concepts to create expert layouts."
