This follow-up to the same author's Decorated Page (ISBN 1-57990-299-5) offers even more great ideas for beautifying a personal journal: more breathtaking photographs to inspire, and more smart (and simple) ways to endow even the artistically timid with confidence. This book simply brims with suggestions and instructions. * Find out about the wealth of contemporary supplies, from papers and adhesives to paints, pens, and pastels. * See how to create the actual journal from scratch, including a quick-to-do Three Minute Pamphlet. * Use the tips for customising a shop-bought book that could use a little flair, such as adding pockets, inserting tabs, or adorning the cover. * Build layered pages, take advantage of the creative potential of transparencies, and more. * Sidebars and images of actual journals add to the fun.
