I love everything about this book. Such a find. I don’t even know how I came across it … but I’m so pleased I did. I’m not even into stickers … this is going to live on my coffee table. The stickers are flat on the pages and so looks like a picture book … which it what I will use it as. I’m into Christian Lacroix designs and this is of a similar ilk. Buy it … you’ll love it! I’ve just ordered Bibliophilia too … ????

I have just received this book, and I don’t often write reviews, so the fact I have says something about how blown away I am.
There is a massive variety of images, from floral, wildlife, and oceanic to quirky, dark, and gothic. These are perfect for my mixed media art, journalling, and upcycling projects. If you are looking for mainstream cutesy images, this is probably not for you. If you like Gothic/Steampunk and alternative mixed with some shabby chic, I cannot recommend it highly enough.
I don’t understand why some reviews say these are not stickers, they most definitely are!

Bought as a present for a friend. She loves them. They are so unique and look great. She puts them on birthday cards and gets compliments about them.

Lovely little book with lots of stickers. Great for a gift.

This book is absolutely packed with amazing stickers, covering all kinds of subjects and all taken from old Victorian/Edwardian type illustrations. Some are pretty, some are spooky, there are animals, all kinds of people both real and mythical, beautiful botanicals, and lots are just very different and fun. I send out a lot of post so these will look fantastic on envelopes, parcels and gift wrapping. Absolutely a five star book, I got it for a lot less than the RRP, well worth it. The only downside now is I don’t want to use them as they’re so pretty.
Can’t rate this highly enough, and am adding the second in the series to my Wish List immediately.

Let me start by saying that I absolutely love this book! A thick hardback book, that is beautifully decorated. The inside cover is vibrant swirly patterns with decorative pages between stickers. The stickers are a mix of oddity, cabinets of curiosity, medieval folly, macarbe, fairytale, 1700s, and general jauntiness! There’s animals, bugs, flowers and a whole heap that don’t make sense lol. I adore it’s quirkiness, especially for scrapbooking. My only gripes are: the stickers are not very sticky. I find I have to glue them down. Not a major problem, but if I buy a sticker book, I expect them to stick well. Secondly, when you peel the stickers off they have a border outline around them, so I find myself cutting it off so it blends in with my theme I’m doing. It’s a bit of a nuisence, but not enough to put me off, however, would look better without the border. Other than those small gripes, I’m definitely buying the 3rd edition as already have the 2nd. It truly is a wonderful book and I actually hate having to use it!

solid well made book
As with others who reviewed i find it a great shame that the stickers are not cut out much closer to the images, it does limit the looks of some of the things I wanted to do. You would need to sit and cut them out which you can do but is not what i am wanting to do with my time. That is where it looses a star.
The stickers are matt which i REALLY like, so many stickers i have bought are shiny and i like to have something that does not show up in my pictures as the only shiny thing agains the matt tapes and papers i use.
The images are so varies some are clasically beautiful, some are just strange one sticker is this weird cat with eyes that follow you and a squished face. Some quite medieval look images and unusual animals like wonderful jellyfish and plankton.
I do find myself just flicking through the pages and looking at the images at times. Doing this alone makes me smile!
For the £11 i paid it is well worth it.

I use this book for my journaling and I really like the variety of stickers, my only qualms are that the stickers aren’t very sticky once peeled so in some instances I’ve had to glue them and the other issue is that the borders are really big on them and they are often colours like blue green and pink that don’t match the stickers. However overall I like the book
