Ideas for Getting Started

This slim book gives some good tips and ideas for the beginning scrapbooker. It gives layout advice, professional tips on cropping, grouping, creating themes, writing narratives, and other ideas. I found the coverage pretty superficial if you've read other books on the topic. Here's what it covers: Materials -- Methods -- Putting & page together -- Talking to the past : marrying old with new -- Recreating old images -- Preserving the past -- Ancestral profile -- Creating a family tree -- Illustrating a family tree -- Researching your roots -- Special events : a new arrival ; Baby naming -- Coming of age -- Weddings -- Birthday parties -- Fun festivals -- Religious celebrations -- Everyday life : the family -- House & garden -- Childhood firsts -- School days -- Making an impact -- Special trips -- Vacations -- Club activities -- Pet pals -- Outdoor adventures -- Suppliers
