Product Description
If you are stuck for words and creative ideas you should find lots of inspiration in this newly revised edition of 500 More Heartwarming Expressions For Crafting and Scrapbooking. The second of four books in this popular series, it now includes lots more chunky lettering styles, page layout ideas, project instructions and, for the first time, color samples of projects are featured on the back cover. The projects include some fun scrapbook pages, paper crafts and cute gift ideas like the famous "Honey-Do-List," or three easy projects using terracotta pots to create a Flower Pen Pot, a Muffin Pot and a Pincushion Pot. There is also a wonderful lampshade cover done with a scrapbook page on vellum, that will light up a babys room and every mother's heart. The book's introduction explains how expressions can create warmth, personality and convey a special message. Then you get tips and ideas for hand lettering, tracing, photocopying, clipart techniques, and different ways to utilize the book with your computer to create scrapbook pages, cards, crafts and keepsakes. Scrapbooking has become the most popular way to use the books. You can simply trace or copy any expression or design on vellum and mat it to a scrapbook page or card. The expressions are divided into a large variety of themes, which, like the other books, are alphabetically tabbed in the upper right corner for quick reference. Themes include Angels & Fairies, Babies, Blessings, Christmas, Country, Critters, Family, Fishing, Friendship, Funny Bones, Gardening, Golfing, Halloween, Hobbies, Home, Housework Stinks, Inspirations, Kids Zone, Kitchen Quips, Love, Memory Lane, Occupations, On the Mend, Over The Hill, School, Sports, Stitching & Quilting and Teddy Bears. You will find everything from heartfelt sentiments, mushy love stuff, inspirational quotes, to feel good sayings and funny quips.

This book is a crafter's delight October 14, 2003

Another great Heartwarming Expressions book. I have neglected my housework much to the dismay of my family because of these wonderful books.
They are ideal if you are stuck for ideas for a craft project. As soon as I pick these books up, I instantly start thinking of all the things I can make ... and magically I forget about my housework. :0)A great series of books and I am so happy that I finally have them all, I wouldn't trade them for anything or to anyone.

It's always nice to be able to add a little personality to your crafts and this book will help you to do that. It's easy to adapt to your skill-level: you can trace, enlarge/copy, or freehand draw any of the designs presented to use on just about any type of craft that you can think of. Of course, the primary thought would be for scrapbooking, but inside the front cover, the author lists 99 places that you could potentially use these sayings and clipart. In fact, included are a few projects for flower pots and a cross-stitching guide for five alphabets. If you're motivated enough, you can enlarge some of the art and use them for paper-piecing in your scrapbooks. Some topics: babies, country, school, Christmas, pets, and fishing/golf...and there are many more!
