A must-see from two very talented women
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I am a collage and card artist and have just started considering scrapbooking. In fact I was a scrapbooking snob until collage/scrapping a recent vacation into two books. Along with Out of Bounds I purchased "That's Life: Finding Scrapbook Inspiration in the Everyday and The Art of Personal Imagery: expressing Your Life Through Collage. I'm unhappy with "That's Life" and enjoy "Personal Imagery" but it's Torrey and Jodi's Out of Bounds that makes me want to really expand my art. These two woman really do have no boundaries in what they will try and their results are amazing; maybe not at first glance but when you really look at their art and subject matter and begin to break it down you, too, will be pleased. The way these two document personal tragedies in their scrapbooks is powerful; you want to know more about these two women and the people they journal about. But this is not to mention their techniques, and yes, I would like to see another book from them describing and demonstrating techniques. While some of the techniques are easy enough to learn on your own, there are some things that I haven't a clue about where or how to start. This book is well worth the money and I hope to see more from these women.

The layouts in this lovely book are definitely not ho-hum. I carried this book with me everywhere for several weeks because I loved looking at the exceptional pages. Very inspirational.
Daring to be Different
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Wasn't too sure about this book at first read through and my hesitation seemed to centre on the use of image software for a number of the techniques without a clear "how to" process clearly described. This is sheer laziness on my part as these things are easy to learn if I really want to replicate a technique. It was the second read through that I began to feel that the title "Out of Bounds" wasn't just a reference to artistic rule breaking; it was the subject matter of the lay-outs that challenged the traditional approach to scrapbooking. There were the holidays, the babies, the best friends pages, but there were also layouts recording the most real of life events...bereavement, loss, striving to meet the challenges of ill health and other challenging life experiences. An artistic celebration of survival and self discovery. If you are someone who has an interest in scrapbooking all of life (its laughter and its heartache), I think you will appreciate this book.
