Book Description
ATCs are all the rage!
Making artist trading cards (ATCs) is a hugely popular activity for artists. Originally a paper/collage-based art form, ATCs have caught on with crafters working in a range of mediums and are now just as popular among fabric and mixed-media artists. ATCs are mini art works, the size of a playing card, often created as limited editions. The back of each card contains the artist's name and contact information. The idea behind the cards is to make them and then give, trade, or share them with others. This collection inspires with 1,000 original cards in a beautiful pageant of color, composition, and creative use of materials. The book also includes a special section devoted to explaining what ATCs are, how to get started, and includes some exciting technique information. Curated by Patricia Bolton, founder and editor-in-chief of two of the most exciting creative magazines on the newsstands, the book meets the Quarry Books mission of offering artistic and challenging new ideas to traditional paper artists, scrapbookers, mixed-media artists, and quilters by merging paper, fabric, and surface embellishment through experimentation and discovery.

1000 atc's reviewed.......2007-09-01
Great layout of the book, colours are great.I felt there were too many fabrics used, and may be more paper products would be nice.
Excellent service all round.......2007-08-25
I am VERY pleased with the product, the service, the safe trading, and the time frame for delivery.
You are my first line of contact when looking for a good price and good product in books I wish to source.
Many Thanks
Disappointing. .......2007-08-24
I am a huge devotee of creating and collecting ATCs and was really looking forward to this book. I was more than a little disappointed. The cards included weren't among the most amazing or innovative I've seen, and there were no instructions as to how to create them. You'd be better off cruising around the internet and saving your money for art supplies.
1000 Artist Trading Cards.......2007-08-23
Excellent resource for those just getting into this new hobby as well as those who are veterans. So many inspirational ideas and great tutorials. If I only had one book on ATC s this would be the one.
Great Inspiration . . ........2007-07-22
If you are interested in ATCs you will really enjoy this book. Beautiful photography of so many different styles and designs. I found it very inspirating. Patricia Bolton is the publisher of Quilting Arts and Cloth.Paper.Scissors, two of the best magazines of all time. Check them out!

Nice, but............2007-08-14
This is a very beautifully illustrated book in the way that it is put together. Although, many of these images are available online for your viewing, it is nice to have them compiled into one book. My only complaint is that some of the pages are not easy on the eyes as far as being easy to read. I think that the print could have been larger. On some pages more of a contrast between the background page color and print color would have made it easier and more enjoyable to read. If you are looking for inspiration and ideas, there are a number of very nice ones here.
I Like It.......2007-08-13
While I am not an ephemera artist, I found this to be a very enjoyable book, if only on a philosophical level. There are a few practical ideas that I can use, but mostly I think that this is a book that feeds the creative spirit through the expressions of other artists. The 'zine format makes for easy little tidbit reading experiences and I always enjoy looking at other people's projects.
Explore a different side of mixed-media.......2007-08-01
I ordered this book before I could browse through based on a review that said Julianna Coles is a contributor. I love her style and teaching. I am a scrapbooker at heart but I love the challenges to do something different and it adds to my scrapbooking.
Many of the other contributors offer editorial essay about why the are artists but little else. Overall, it's a good book and I'd recommend it.
Great Book.......2007-07-22
I love this book. I keep looking at it over and over. I am not really that talented of an artist but I love The great ideas to spark my creativity.
Not a how-to...but a why-not?.......2007-07-22
After reading all the other reviews I knew that I had to get this book. It doesn't matter what sort of art or craft you practice...get this book! It is filled with superb writing from people who are passionate about their creativity. This book affirmed to me that I am an artist and that I shouldn't hesitate to let the world know that. There are some projects in this book, but that is not the reason to get it. It is not a how-to. It is a why-not book. The pages literally drip with the most eye-popping collage art and the writing is inspired. Even if collage art, or mixed media art, or altered art is not your thing, there is at least one article in this book that will speak to your particular brand of creativity, but I think it is the articles that I might not have been drawn to at first are the most challenging to me and force me to see the world through different colored lenses. Don't buy this book if you want a how-to, but if you are looking for validation that creativity lies within and all around you, this is the book for you.
Book Description
Each card in this inspiring deck offers an idea to stretch your approach to observing and chronicling the daily events around you. You'll learn how to harness the power of words (what to write about, and what to write with), explore extreme photography techniques without having any previous photography experience, focus on the little things (like a two-inch section of a painted mural you drive by every day), and discover unusual ways to create a self-portrait (from plastic wrap and tree lights, to close-ups of your hands). Includes 50 cards and a creativity notebook to record your own art-journal explorations.
Customer Reviews:
Very Cool Concept.......2007-09-26
I love these creativity cards! The graphics on one side are unique, interesting, colorful, and eye catching. The prompts on the flipside are thought-provoking, meaningful, and different. The small journal is a great creative jumpstart in itself. I love the colors and techniques that were used to produce the backgrounds. Think I'll even attempt to create some of those myself. The box housing the creativity cards and journal is sturdy and pleasant to look at.
This is a fresh concept, and I am enjoying this package very much.
By the way, this is in no way a "how to" of any type. It is intended to make you think about doing old things in a fresh way or to help you attempt something new altogether.
Highly recommended.
Wow!.......2007-08-05
these cards are amazing. each one is a little piece of art in itself. you'll want to frame and hang them. except then you wouldn't be able to turn them over and get a shot in the arm of inspiration... yummy. i'm too afraid to work in the little workbook as yet, tho. i don't wanna mess it up. :)
if you're looking for cutesy, pretty art, tho, look somewhere else. this is real, gritty from-the-soul art. the kind that hits you "right there". and hopefully will help you make your own journal pages that do the same.
several of them are geared towards photography but lots of it is the kind that can be done with even an el cheapo camera. the author will also have you using tape, glue, spraypaint, and maybe a few things you never thought of as art supplies before. this is the kind of journaling that begs you to jump in and get messy.
if you do any kind of visual journaling, i highly recommend these cards and workbook.
So Much Fun.......2007-08-05
I got this after much thought. I figured it was just another "how to do a journal book". But, I found it to be much fun to do the exersizes and if you are an artist with a block, this will help to unblock you. It can give you ideas you never really thought of before on approaching your art work. Plus, as I said, it is a lot of fun to do the exersizes suggested on the individual cards. The kit also includes a fun little notebook/journal book to do as you please with. If you teach art, these are also fun ideas to inspire your students. I plan on doing that with my students this Fall.
This is a Gem.......2007-07-26
First of all, this will make a perfect gift for anyone crafty or involved in journaling, scrapbooking, altered books, ATCs, etc. It's a very affordable gift that keeps on giving.
The author opens your eyes to new ways to be creative in a way anyone, whether an "artist" or not, can use everyday observations to create real, unique, personal, fun, journal pages. She'll encourage you to take in all your surroundings and find a common element - she was able to find the common element while sitting in an Italian restaurant and watching war protesters: she, the waiter, the protesters were all waiting, caught up in a moment in time which was the theme she used for one one of her journal pages. She uses paint, photography and any object that she can use to express herself in her work -and makes no apologies. I LOVE this little gem. Just lovely and real. You won't be disappointed.
Great things come in little boxed sets..........2007-07-04
I noticed that there was a 1 star review of "Wide Open...". No offense, reviewer, but clearly you don't have a clue. Yes, the cards in the set are sort of vague -- if you are looking for step-by-step instructions for making something, don't waste your money on this. And, yes, you do need to own... and have some very basic knowledge of... art supplies (again, no offense, but if you've been within spitting distance of an art supply or craft store, then you'll know what gesso is).
[Ok, stepping off my soap box and done with the snarky comments.] Randi Feuerhelm-Watts is such an inspiration! I love her style and the ideas for inspiration that she presents on the cards go way beyond some of the tired, old suggestions that seem to always crop up in art/craft publications.
I read all the cards in one sitting (because I'm obsessive like that!) and I did notice that some of them related to each other. Not that they are dependent on each other or that you would be lost if you pick them at random... but I did observe some links between the individual ideas. I think this is great for continuing themes in your art work. Also, while she references photography quite a bit (she is a photographer after all), I definitely do not feel that any of the ideas are pigeonholed by the techniques. The author's basic ideas translate really well no matter what kind of visual artwork you might do.
The cards themselves each feature snippets of the author's artwork on the back. This alone is incredibly inspirational. You almost get double the bang for your buck - pull out one of the cards to interpret the visual side and then come back to it later for inspiration from the narrative side.
My only complaint would be about the Creativity Notebook... I wouldn't really call it a complaint, persay. I guess I'm just ambivalent about it's inclusion in the set. On one hand she has provided some great backgrounds to help you combat "white page syndrome" as well as some random instructions to offer a jump start to someone who is new to visual journaling. But on the other hand, I don't see myself personally using it since I already have half a dozen journals and prefer to make my own backgrounds (once you get on a roll, its half the fun).
The ideas and techniques are presented in Randi's conversational style, along with her great little stories. While I have not had the pleasure of taking a class with her or meeting her, she comes across as the kind of person you'd love to have as an art friend because she'd always be inspiring and challenging. I think that's the greatest thing about this kit... she's managed to package a ton of her personality and a lot of what I imagine she teaches in her workshops into one cool product. This set definitely gets a front row spot on my art-bookshelf.

Pretty Pictures no instruction.......2007-09-08
Very pretty pictures. Not what I was looking for. I want to see the step by step process not a list of what was used. Very very unsatisfying. I returned it. Not worth the money for nice photo's.

Customer Reviews:
Ready, Set, Solder!.......2007-10-02
I originally checked this book out of the library, but was so entranced I had to order a copy for my own library. The book is filled with lots of small projects, like many others - but what's so enchanting (and different) about it is that you end up with USABLE ingredients for other projects when you're done!
Learn to solder - start small, with different types of charms. Progressively more involved pieces teach more advanced techniques. When you've completed just 2 or 3 'mini projects' you've got a set of workable charms for future work - an excellent use of the bits you've made, and SO wonderful when compared to many other books I've seen where you make weird oddments that have no other use when completed other than to have demonstrated a technique. This book builds your technique AND your supplies - a definite winner. I heartily recommend it to artists who are starting to explore other media!
A book overflowing with love for art and life........2007-10-02
I have read all of the reviews here for Sally Jean's "Pretty Little Things." One can see those reviews of the people who perceive the world as half empty.
For me, Sally's book is a glass overflowing with creativity, eye candy and the love for the art that she creates. It's a wonderful insight to see how this amazing artist processes all the inspiration that surrounds her.
Sally gives us a tour of her inner soul...that playful, joyous spirit we all see in her classes. She has translated onto the written page all of her enthusiasm for her art and life.
"Pretty Little Things" is a joy to read. I loved the way that Sally's personality shines through...something that can be lost in a "how to" book. Buy this book, then take one of Sally's classes and you'll see what I mean!
Scrapbooking under glass.......2007-08-27
This book is so much fun. I am a stained glass and scrapbooking hobbyist and have found this book to be a combination of both things and a great source for glass collage. I have had lots of fun with it and have encouraged others to try their hand at this mixed media.
GET READY FOR FUN FUN FUN!!!!.......2007-08-26
FIND YOUR GUMPTION AND HAVE YOUR WITTS ABOUT YOU!
this book is not just great to look at, the projects are fun to do.
i would say this BOOK is for anyone who likes to gain inspiration from fun projects, the PROJECTS are for those self starters willing to be patient with themselves and their project. for instance a lot of these projects reqiure soldering. if you have never done soldering go get you an iron an start slow- mind you- i said slow-hence the patience part i mentioned. dont be afraid to get help-look in your phone book and see if there is anyone doing stained glass in your area- call and ask for a quickie lesson. plumbers use solder too. once you get the hang of it you'll pee your pants with glee because this one skill opens up sooo many possibilities for your all your crafts. sally gives a lot of recommendations for supplies and i learned her recommendatons are based on her extensive experience. be prepared to spend some dough on really good equipment I.e. temperature control soldering iron, gel flux, taurus ring saw(the big red one in her book),silvergleem solder. get the things she recommends. i tried being cheap and my results show it. then i tried her recommendations and my results reflected much better. i checked out the links for product in the back and i found i could buy ALL the supplies i needed on ebay for a lot less than the links. the ring saw is a blast and a halfand i found it on ebay too! cuts glass like butter and you CANNOT cut yourself. the "lifes a beach" pendant on page 83 was my first project. i had some sand from a special beach trip we took and i found a wad of test tubes at the flee market-cut those up,taped,soldered-not too bad! tried again-much better! as i said this book is a great looker and doer!
A lovely book but I returned it.......2007-08-09
This book is lovely to look at, but if you do not have any jewellery making skills or tools the projects are not for you. I ended up returning this book because the projects involved more than I had thought, and required jewellery making tools that I do not own. It wasn't quite what I hoped for, but was still a lovely book to look at.
Book Description
AS SEEN ON "THE VIEW"!
The real news of our lives is not in newspapers. We must chronicle our own adventures and achievements, our brilliant observations and our comic relief, our best friends and our greatest embarrassments. Visual Chronicles is all about YOU: your dreams, your memories, your daily routines, your greatest loves and your secret pet peeves. It's all about getting to know yourself better, savoring the wonderful ebb and flow of your everydays, and celebrating it all in visual mementos of your life journey.
Art journaling is fun, cathartic and EASY. Each chapter of Visual Chronicles quiets common fears such as "Nothing happens in my life." or "I'm just not artistic." with projects such as the "My Day Unfolds Journal", and "Experiments with Composition." Inside, you'll learn that journaling doesn't take big chunks of time--just bits and pieces here and there, whenever the spirit strikes. "Get Going" exercises offer instant ideas such as listening to the conversations you have with yourself or recognizing that meaningful ephemera is a part of each and every day. Soon, you'll see that inspiration awaits all around you: a midnight trip to the store, a favorite scarf, an unexpected phone call, junk email, your breakfast plate . . .
Don't wait another second. Make creative journaling a part of your everyday life, busting through self-doubt, time clocks, piles of laundry, and every other roadblock along the way. With Visual Chronicles, you'll be inspired to tell your story the way only you can!
Rosie O'Donnell, The View, October 19, 2006:
"This is the only book you'll ever need, to learn how to scrapbook in a way that is uniquely yours."

life changing book.......2007-09-20
Visual Chronicles is a must have book for any crafter or artist. Beginning artists will learn new skills and advanced artists will be re-energized. The authors are lighthearted and funny and the projects are easy to follow. Once you make your own personal palette, you will see everything in life differently. This book is an oasis in a desert of sepia toned craft books by authors who take themselves way too seriously. By the end of this book, you will be an artist and you'll have made two new best friends. Read this book! I can't wait for the next book by these talented sisters.
Good book for new art journalists.......2007-09-13
This was the first book I read when I learned there was such a thing as art journaling. I'm a photographer and not a painter, but I love to work with my hands and with paint and glue and expressing myself on paper. This book showed me from the start that I don't have to be a painter or art student to begin art journaling; it took all the intimidation away and gave me the practical tools and encouragement I needed to begin this new art form for me. The written style of the book is personal and conversational, and I've njoyed reading it, not to mention learning so much, from the first application of the glue stick up.
collage,/mixed media.......2007-09-04
this book was exactly what i was looking for. It explains in simple and easy to understand terms, how to go about jornaling on your collaged books, which can also extend to scrapbooking. An essential guide book for the beginner or advanced mixed media artist and scrapbooker. Definately reccomended
Must Have!.......2007-07-25
If you are new to Visual Journaling, this is a must have book. Wonderful directions for getting started and getting yourself to open up to this unique experience. Even if you don't think of yourself as artistic, this book will pull it out and you'll enjoy the journey.
staying creative in a decidedly uncreative world..........2007-07-25
I have every book on art journaling known to man. Quite a few on regular journaling, too. And a fair bit on paper arts. I might just have a small, tiny book *addiction*. That's neither here nor there.
What IS both here and there is that I lusted after this book before it came out. I think I may have actually scared some people at B&N with the crazy-eyed, wild-haired begging for them to hurry up and get it in. (I'd preordered it here, but it was taking just way too long. Yes, I know they ship the first day. That's beside the point. I'm not so good with instant gratification.)
So when it came in from Amazon, the first thing I did was toss aside the other filler books I bought to get the free shipping and flopped down on the floor with Visual Chronicles.
An hour later, when I came up for air, the first thing I did was prepaint some shoes. SHOES, people! Who woulda thunk of creating a literal *walking journal*? Evidently, Linda and Karen.
From that first set of shoes until now, I keep finding pieces of this book in things that I do, artwise. It's a revolutionary book in a very quiet way -- making you think about both the extraordinary and the everyday. Those little "Have No Fear" quotes (which one reviewer obviously didn't understand to be set-offs for tidbit tips) get repeated in my head when I'm stuck, or needing a dose of inspiration. And the projects, while not my typical style, have been something I've gone back to again and again. (The miniprompt book and the color glossary in particular.) And I definitely didn't find any of it to be condescending -- maybe because I really see the authors (through their writing here) as friends. Highly enthusiastic, you-can-do-it cheerleader friends, wanting to share a little bit of their creative spirits with everyone, rather than hoarding it all for themselves.
Like I said, I've got a shelf full of journaling books. Among those, there are probably a dozen that I refer back to again and again, and Visual Chronicles is one of those. I've never regretted buying it, or keeping it at the ready -- because that inspiration that's so freely given is priceless.

Customer Reviews:
The best scrapbook book for beginners.......2007-04-24
This was the first scrapbook book I ever bought (after checking about twenty books in the local book store) and it is still the best source book for beginner's I've seen. It introduces all the tools and basic techniques and also has some great layouts. If you're an experienced scrapper this is not a book for you but if you're only starting get this book. You won't regret it.
Best on the Market.......2006-08-01
This is far and above the best book I've encountered for New Scrappers. Instead of just showing layouts, explanations are there to show why a layout works, how to do it and simplifies the mystique behind all the necessary tools and not so necessary tools. I wish I had bought this book before spending money on stuff I didn't really need. You won't regret this purchase if you are a beginner and it also makes a great gift for someone thinking about scrapping. Guaranteed to rev your creativity.
Great information for the beginner.......2006-03-10
If you are new or fairly new to scrapbooking, this book will help you with organization, picture taking, details about products you will need and conservation and storage. The book also includes stencils and templates which can be removed and used on photos and cardstock. The spiral binding is an added plus because the book lays flat when open. Well worth the purchase price.
Scrapbook Teacher.......2004-09-21
This is a great book encompassing every aspect of scrapbooking for the beginner and experienced crafter. It's easy to read and understand, offering a great deal of layouts. I couldn't put it down. This book will definitely take the fear out of beginning scrapbookers and challenge others to try new techniques.

Great Keepsake!.......2007-09-26
I bought this for my nearly one-year old son to begin marking his Birthday celebrations. Everyone I've shown it to thinks it's a great idea and the perfect way to keep track of Ryan's first 12 Birthdays. Although it won't hold much, I just wanted it to hold invites, thank you cards and a few photos, and it will definitely do that and more. I've been thinking of buying it for all of my friends' kids, too.
Great keepsake.......2007-06-27
This was a great book to purchase for birthday keepsakes. I gave it to my daughter for our grandaughter's first birthday. It was appreciated because it gave her a place to keep the invitation, pictures, etc.
Not exactly what I wanted...but ok.......2007-06-01
Several years back, I saw a birthday memory book at Hallmark. I bought it as a gift for several friends. I looked everywhere for it but had no luck. I found this one on Amazon. It is ok but not exactly what I wanted. I wanted something more 'child-like.' This is very nice but doesn't really scream "I'm a kid!"
What a great idea!.......2007-01-15
I have seen all the school years books for memories but have never seen one for birthdays. My mother sent this up to us and I love it. There are pockets to store cards from the birthdays, pictures, an invitation from the party and some favors you may want to keep too. Obviously there is a limited amount of storage space but I love it. You fill in the age they were for each birthday (great b/c I didn't have this for her first bday). There are also spots for you to tell about their bday, about the party, what you did and ate, highlights from the day, gifts and who gave them, and a place for special memories and hopes for the past/upcoming year. Then you sign it or whoever fills it in signs it. I really love this book! I think I will buy more for family and friends.

I am enjoying making my own cards using the patterns in this book. It is easy and fun. My family and friends that I send the cards to have complimented my work.
Fun new hobby........2007-03-22
Paper embroidery is a new hobby for me and the patterns and ideas in the book are great! My only disappointment was that there were few "male" oriented patterns, except for the plain designs. I would have liked to have seen boats, animals, etc.

Customer Reviews:
Its good......NOT great.......2007-09-27
It is a good book, especially if you like to color.....but that is the only great thing about it. It lacks important detail, thus it is a coloring book only!
A Colouring Atlas of Dog Anatomy.......2007-09-22
I am extremely happy with the purchase of this particular book. As a student of Animal Bowen Therapy, I require information that is explanatory and easy to understand. This book is all of that and more. The pictures are simple and it is very easy to see the different aspects of the anatomy of a dog.
I received the book in wonderful timing and as always, found the transaction to be easy and non fuss. I will continue to shop for my books this way as it is 9 times out of 10 the cheapest and best way to do it.

Dog Anatomy A Coloring Atlas.......2007-09-07
Beautiful pictures with clear information. This book is required for the Comparative Anatomy class that I am taking. I would highly recomend this book for any vet tech students suffering from information overload. Great help in understanding the basics.
Dog Anatomy: A Coloring Atlas.......2007-07-16
This is an excellent resource for anyone who is studying dog anatomy for any reason. Illustrations are detailed and clearly labelled. I am using this as a reference for a Canine Myotherapy certification course.
Not detailed enough for Vet Students.......2006-11-11
I am a first year veterinary student, and I bought this book thinking it would be a good tool for reviewing my anatomy. Definitely not the case!!! The book is not detailed enough to satisfy the veterinary student (at least not at Tufts!). This is especially true for the nerves and bones. I would recommed getting the Evans and deLahunta "Guide to the Dissection of the Dog" instead, and coloring in their black and white illustrations.
