If you like your scrapbooking very clean and simple......then this may not be the book for you.......but if you like layers and textures and all sorts of touchy feelyness........then you'll love the feast of ideas in here.......there's stunning layouts on every page......as well as some suggestions for cards........ideas for using all sorts of resources you might not have thought of adding to pages........and instructions for many of the techniques.
So what did it inspire me to make?
I took a lot of photos of buildings in Rome.....far too many to scrap at 6 x 4.......so decided to combine small prints of some of them on one page using my newly discovered photosheet software......which is a free download.......easy to use.......and great for photoshop phobics like me.
The photos are mounted on distressed corrugated card......the title is distressed chipboard.....and I found a chipboard arch which I've wrapped with twine.....this page was definately inspired by the book.
If you really must have a turn with this book.......and it's certainly not compulsory.......then please leave a comment.......I'll pick a 'winner' on Wednesday evening [UK time]......and the book must be posted by Saturday 28th April.

I love the chipboard arch too. This is a great read, no doubt about it!
...& my eye went straight to the arch too...it looks as if I'm peeking hrough a doorway into a secret roman garden! I love texture & I love this LO too! :D
What a beautiful page - that arch is so clever. Sounds a good book.
Glorious book - maybe perfect for getting me out of my CAS rut!!!
Happy Monday

Great page - I would love the chance to be entered. Thanks
gosh the book has obviously been a great inspiration, fab page the texture looks amazing and I also love the arch. Please add me to the list of people in the draw many thanks xxx
This is a stunning layout, Jacky, but since I'm a pretty CAS scrapper, I'll pass on this one.
I've already seen the book, so don't put my name in the draw, but I did want to say that I love your layout! The burlap is perfect for Rome.

Thanks for playing along with Pass the Book:Year Two Jacky. So glad you enjoyed the book - I can definitely see how it inspired you with this layout, it's stunning!
You really don't need that book Jacky, your pages are always amazing and fully of layers and texture, just like this one!!
I have a space in my bookshelf that is just the right size for that book. I always admire layering on other people's layouts but it never seems to work for me so I really do NEED to have this book!
