This is the only book you'll ever need, to learn how to scrapbook in a way that is uniquely yours.
-Rosie O'Donnell, The View
In this 128-page book, plump as plump can be with illustrations, the authors guide you on a whirlwind trek of empowerment: They show you how to celebrate the daily news of your life through visual additions in your journals and diaries, to augment and magnify commentary.
-RubberStampMadness Magazine
It will inspire the intimidated artist within and it's filled with easy projects and practical tips.
-Skirt! Magazine
What a dynamite combination! We all have personal reasons and excuses why we can't put pen, pencil, paint, or glue to paper. This book allows us to see those reasons and excuses but nudges us to explore...a terrific way to start the journey.
-Somerset Studio Magazine
If you fear exploring your creativity, but are still drawn to the idea of documenting your personal history through artistic journals or altered books, “Visual Chronicles” will inspire and enlighten you...Artistic inspiration and projects aside, this book is simply entertaining reading. You could curl up and read it with nary an embellishment or glue stick in sight.

VISUAL CHRONICLES has taken me to another level in my
sketch books and journals. Each chapter pushes me over the
creative edge into the Neverland of surprise. A must for all creative
wannabees and ares.
-Kim Howard, Illustrator of The Lovables In The Kingdom Of Self-Esteem
The way they approach everything in the book, whether in words or art, is with a loving light touch. There is heart and humor in this book and I deeply feel that, with all that goes on in our lives and in the world, both are so needed...There is so much to reflect upon, laugh over, learn from and use in real life.
-Gloria Page, Author of Art Stamping Workshop
