One of the first four books in the Instant Memories series. Each of these books offers 57 scrapbook pages ready for your photographs. Simply tear them out along the perforated edge, add photographs and diary entries in the spaces provided, and you have a beautiful, vintage scrapbook page in minutes. For added value, each book comes with a CD that contains all of the images that make up each individual page. Hundreds of images at your fingertips for use in scrapbook, fabric transfer, and woodcrafts. Eight pages of gallery ideas are provided to demonstrate how the artwork can be used.
What could be easier? The cut and paste of these ready-to-use scrapbook pages invite beginning and experienced scrapbookers/card creators to jump right in. Unfortunately many of the designs are not mortised; for example a heart pastes in with a rectangular border, not as a perfectly edged heart. So you need to do a freeform crop which DOES work; it just takes time. Nevertheless the designs are lovely and appropriate for many applications.
excellent resource for vintage images

I bought all the books in this series. They are all wonderful. The images can be used directly from the book or you can print yourself from the CD included. I am very happy. Some of the images are cropped too closely so you don't get it all, but more the most part, the quality is great.
Another beautiful additon

I am adddicted to "Instant Memories." I must buy all of their publications. Sure, I have been disappointed, especially "Christmas," but all of their other publications are great. Their two latest, "Love" and "Family" are, by far, their best. If you are a clip art junkie, you have come to the right place. These two volumes are especially beautiful and unique. I am not a fan of computer scrapping. The items in this volume can be used for this. I am tactile. This web art clearly shows how you can adapt their designs real time. I have used some of their items for print out. They are beautiful and intensely colored and add beauty to any page. I've rarely thought about being a salesperon for anything, but these publications make me think twice.
