Product Description
Scrapbook Page Maps takes the guesswork out of where to begin by giving plenty of design ideas for their scrapbook layouts! By referring to the sketches in the book, readers can select photos, papers and embellishments and then bring the page together quickly and easily. Helpful resource information such as a supply list and photo sizes are included on each card, along with page information cross-referencing the sketch back to the book. Scrapbook Page Maps is the essential book for beginning scrapbookers as well as those short on time. And you get more than just an inspiring, design-filled idea book!
Also included is a deck of laminated cards that includes a thumbnail of many of the sketches in the book along with corresponding finished layouts.

Inspirational buy!! December 14, 2008
Amazing book! Love her work, sketches and examples ... to top if off the little cards of the sketches are great to take along with you on crops!! Definitely worth it!
A must have! December 1, 2008
If you scrapbook then you must get this book. You will love it!! It is AWESOME! No wasted moments trying to figure out a layout. Try it, you will be glad you did.
 Very helpful November 25, 2008
I was happy with the fact that there was more than one picture available for the layouts. It could have giving a little more information but I would buy it again and I would purchase for friends.
 I think this book is just okay. November 21, 2008

First the pros: Becky Fleck does beautiful work, her sketches are detailed and the scrapbook pages pictured are wonderful. She uses a lot of paint in her designs, which I don't. The spiral binding makes it really simple to open it to the page you like and keep it there! There are cards in the back of all the sketches with an example on the back of the card. The idea is that you can carry the cards more easily than the book to a crop or to the craft store to buy supplies. Awesome, right!?
The cons: The biggest con for me is that Becky Fleck mostly does one page designs. Most scrappers I know, myself included, tend to work on two page spreads. So this is a major disappointment for me. And I know the one page sketches can be carried over into a 2 page spread, but I'd rather just see the whole double page spread all sketched out for me. That's why I buy these books! Fleck shows examples of 8 1/2 x 11" layouts with single pages, double pages and pages that have the layout turned to be 11" x 8.5". But I would not have bought it if I'd known it was 80% single page sketches.
But the bright side is that on Amazon.com, the list price is an affordable $14.99 (unlike me, who paid full list price of $24.99 to get it NOW). So it isn't much of a budget breaker. But for me, I wish I'd have spent the money on scrapbooking supplies.
Wonderful Book... November 12, 2008
Enjoyed the illustrations in this book. It is an inspiration for scrapbooking ideas. I can see that I will be using it over and over....love the pull out card set in the back. Easy to take along with you to crops! A must buy item!
