The Book of Us

The Book of Us encourages scrapbookers to explore and save what is unique and special about their most meaningful relationships.

Designed to help with scrapbooking about friendships, family, love relationships, groups, work teams and communities, The Book of Us is divided into the components that make relationships tick-- their history, special jokes or language, celebrations, gifts or family ties.

Each chapter defines the chapter theme, explains how the theme is part of a relationship's dynamics, and provides layout examples; prompts to aid journaling; ideas for photos, memorabilia and quotations that help illustrate the theme; and, additional Internet resources.

Each chapter is illustrated with Pedersen's own scrapbook pages, the design team members of her Web site as well as 27 other scrapbookers who together submitted the 110 layout examples.

Angie Pedersen is the editor and designer of the award-winning website magazine www.OneScrappySite.com She is also a professional scrapbooking instructor and helps facilitate a regional scrapbooking guild in America.
