These refill pages were the same quality that came with my photo album and half the price I could find them anywhere else. I received them promptly. Will definitely order more in the future.

This was exactly what I needed, and at a price that is very reasonable. VERY pleased with product, cost, speed of shipping. Who could ask for anything more?

The delivery took longer than other items bought on Amazon and when it did come, I was a little disappointed. The quality of the refill pages were sufficient but there were only 5 pages! No where on Amazon did it say only 5 pages were in the pack. I definitely needed more than 5 pages since it was for my wedding scrapbook! I have to say the pages did fit my Pioneer scrapbook perfectly.

Item was shipped on time and arrived quickly. I was very satisfied and will order more fillers when needed.

Great delivery, and easy to load into your scrapbook. I bought it at a great price, but since then I think the price has gone up 2 dollars.

We used to have an old Disney light box I had purchased when I was a preteen. It finally wore out and we had to throw it away. The Autograph Light Box is better than my old light box because the bulb is enclosed and the box itself is sturdier.

I purchased this item for my daughter, who likes to trace drawings and patterns. She is very pleased with it. I intend to use it myself on occasion. Good product.

Being a design major I am very picky about my tools. This box works very well. The only minor drawback is that the lightbulb takes a second or two to turn on. I just toggle the switch a few times and this is remedied. Very reliable!

I bought the light box from Michael's to try and trace patterns to a cream colored, medium/heavy linen fabric for embroidery. It took me a long time and lots of trials by the time I managed it. When I finished, the finest details didn't make it onto the fabric because the light wasn't bright enough so I couldn't see they were there. I had to draw them in freehand by looking at the original pattern. There were sections I didn't draw correctly because, again, the pattern didn't show through well enough. I've also tried to draw on a white, medium/light weight linen and there the pattern showed through really good so that I could manage to transfare the pattern onto the fabric easily. This ArtoGraph light tracer uses 2, 8 watt flouresent lightbulbs which are not bright enough for thicker fabrics. If you use quilter weight cotton fabrics, this will be perfect but if you're thinking heavier fabrics go with another light box with 15 watt bulbs. I've returned this product to Michalel's after two transfers and probably go with a more expensive, but better and brighter one such as the Porta-Trace 11" x 18" Stainless Steel Lightbox with Two 15 watt, 5000°K. Lamps. light box.

This Artograph 10"x12" is very affordable, and very compact, I can take it any where. I looked at light boxes that are 2 or 3 time more in price. It has saved me so much time doing my designs.

my wife uses the light box to trace pitures which i print out on a grid. She is delighted with it.

Super easy-to-use and nice size for most projects; lightweight for easy portability. Will make applique work easy to trace and transfer - a great addition for anyone who needs to trace patterns.

My mom does a lot of embroidery, which means a lot of tracing patterns. The Artograph 12x18 has been a big help. The angled surface make seeing the pattern easier because there is no need to hunch over the box. It's made tracing all the detailed patterns so much easier and it's larger surface means less shifting of patterns. I would highly recommend this to anyone who does a lot of pattern tracing.

This is a good light box. I like the size of it and it has a couple of spots on the upper edge to secure the paper in place. Very nice for tracing. I also liked that it was angled. It is a great price and much cheaper on Amazon than on other art sites. The only thing that could make it better, would be if there were two-bulbs, instead of one.

Got it for my daughter who is into art...does drawings and wants copies that aren't "copies", so she uses it a lot.

I needed something to organize my son's artwork and this traditional style scrapbook was perfect. It's 11x14 so even his larger projects fit and page protectors are available to slip over them so stuff like glitter stays on the picture it was intended. The scrapbook is expandable so I can keep adding pages. I think this scrapbook is a great value. I just wish I could have located one at a local store and avoided paying shipping.

Pioneer Jumbo Family Memory Album, 11" x 14" Scrapbook with 50 Archival Buff Colored Pages, Blue Covers '' Size is great---made of cardboard cover which warps, and the pages are like newsprint. Got what I paid for.

I have been getting into art journaling myself in the last year and have scoured the internet for inspiration, and found a lot of artists recommending this book.. I didnt know until i received it today in the mail what to expect. It is beautiful - there are so many talented people out there doing what they love and I think its great they are willing to share their work with us - even their journal pages. There is a great range of different ideas and styles to be found... i read someones review complaining that the pictures weren't big enough, i didnt mind the size - at two pictures per page - you can see enough detail and vivid color and still appreciate the whole picture. This book inspired me and that is just the initial thumbing through it. I intend to study it closer asap. It is a great value and a great book!

Worth the price but for me a bit odd as regards the art. I thought it would be 1,000 artists (a big job) but it was several from each artist instead. If I saw it at the store I might not have bought it but if you like this type of art, well worth the price.

The book has no text, only pictures. That would be fine except that the pictures are tiny. It's impossible to see the details in the art. A waste of money. Also, this "new" book came with a torn page.

after flipping threw the pages, i've become inspired by wonderful works of art in this book

What an opportunity to flip through the artistic journals of so many creative people. This book is all about the images. Not too much verbage, just pure inspiration. Slightly oversized, yet each page contains quite a bit of "white space" to let the pages pop. If you want to actually read everything presented, you will need a magnifier. Seemingly every journaling sytle is validated in this generous exploration of what others are doing in art journals. I will enjoy curling up with this book for a very long time.

Not any really helpful tips on how to design your own scrapbook pages, but is really just a book of page sketches and how to use them. If you simply want to copy someone else's ideas for your own scrapbook pages, then this is the book for you. To give the author credit, she does tell you that you can take the sketches as inspiration and change as needed to fit your photos. But who doesn't know that already? There are too many websites where you can simply download sketches. The sketch cards are nice, but I have made my own in the past with heavy duty laminated cardstock and a crop-a-dile. Not so sure yet if I am going to keep the book. The book is really just a nicely packaged group of about 60 sketches that you can use for your own work. I think that most people like the book because it has the cards.

This book is okay, but not for the money. It is just a fancy packaged, overpriced Idea book. I like that it is spiral bound (Similiar to Becky Higgins Creative Companion. I had to make sure it was her that had not written it)and a good quality book and the cards in the back are a nice touch. The down side is there are only 60 layouts and then there are about three different pictures of each layout all by a different artist so you get the feel of different perspectives. Everything is similiar to what I would see in some of the most popular scrapbooking magazines without all the advertisements. The sketch pictures are super small compared to the picture of the actual layouts. In a coupe of years this will be terribly outdated! If I was looking for just an idea book this would be great, but I was wanting more of a sketch idea book! If that is what you are looking for, don't go here. If ideas are what you want, then subscribe to a magazine!!! If you are looking for just sketches, the Page Patterns Just Plain Simplicity are the way to go!!

I love this book. The pages are beautiful and very inspiring. I also love the cards that you punch out in the back of the book and have used them many times for ideas. This is a must have book.

Becky Fleck's book is amazing and has changed the way I scrapbook. I am so pleased with my new style. I highly recommend this book.

I have really enjoyed this book, and have bought it for several friends as well. What's great about it are the cards in the back- they are so easy to use when you are scrapbooking! When I go to retreats, my friends end up borrowing my cards!

I do a lot of scrapbooking and am currently working on my family genealogy/heritage albums. This book is something I can pick up and read through to refresh my mind. I get "scrappers block", is what I call it. I will often pick a lay out that I like, lay the book open and mimic the layout to fit my photograph(s). This was well worth the $16 I paid for it. I was even able to get free shipping...thank you amazon!

This book is great. There are tons of layouts and new things to see each time I open it. I'll be using this one for years to come.

I really like the pictures and layouts. I am just in the beginning stages of scrapbooking, so I needed some ideas. I was able to get a lot of ideas with this book. However, most of the pages are more advanced than my skill level at this time. I'm sure I'll be using this book for years to come.

I love this book! There are so many ideas; it totally lived up to its title! I didn't even realize that it included a CD with more pages and templates that you can print out and use as a guide. I will definitely purchase more of this brand's products!

There seem to be two scrapbooking philosophies: 1st: the scrapbooking as an art philosophy in which you create beautiful masterpieces which combine numerous papers, embellishments, and personal skills to create a work of art and include a photograph or two among the components. 2nd: the scrapbooking as photo album in which you try to present as many photographs as possible as beautifully as possible using some non-photo components in the design but keeping the emphasis (and the expense) for the photos. I belong to the second group and, therefore, was not particularly impressed by this book. The vast majority of the pages feature 3 photos or less (many only one). While I recognize that they look great, I can't afford to spend a fortune in the scrapbooking components and supplies needed to replicate these masterpieces. I aim for a minimum of 4 photos per page and 8 photos per 2-page spread--minimum. My budget for stickers, brads, buttons, ribbons, papers, and other artistic embellishments just doesn't spread far enough to create frequent masterpieces.
