Including the color photographs on the back cover, you get 27 color samples of scrapbook pages and 8 samples of cards and tags created, using different expressions and graphics from the book.
The beginning of the book explains how the right expressions can create warmth, personality and convey a special message. Then you get tips and ideas for hand lettering, tracing, photocopying, clipart techniques, and different ways to utilize a computer with the book to create scrapbook pages, cards and keepsakes. The author notes; “the goal is to show people of all skill levels, several creative ways the expressions and designs can be used with different methods, papers and supplies”.
The expressions are divided into a large variety of themes, which like the other books, are alphabetically tabbed in the upper right corner for quick reference.
