I looked up the other thread on SG sketch books, but didn't see it addressed in any of the replies if any of the books are better than others as far as having more ideas for two page layouts specifically since that's what I usually do.
I have one of their sketch books that I picked up at a store somewhere, but I think I want to get a few more. The Travel and Disney ones are already on my list but I need others for general themes. Thanks!

You should also take a look to their bundle, the sketches are really great in them! I think I use them more than the books. I have the 1-8 bundle, and people often say to pick the last one first. The book 8 has color samples, I like that. Right now, they have a NSD bundle that I really want, so you might consider it too. I just got the april bundle (but with a mix of one and two pages) and I felt really inspired! If you prefer to use standard sizes for your photos, you might consider buying the travel one. If you use a lot of 6 by 6 pads, you could also look at the 6 by 6 class? I would like to have people's opinion about the Simple Stories ones, as I don't have any. Hope that helps.  |

You can use the Travel one for regular pages. I just got that and book 8. For book 8 I got the more expensive download, but was disappointed the sketch supplements were just the same sketch with different photo sizes.

My faves are #8, the travel one and the Simple Stories Say Cheese one. They are all for two pagers. The Say Cheese one works for any line where you might use cutaparts or PL cards on a page and I like that variety, but that might not work for you. I don't think I've ever scrapped a travel page using the travel book, I just like how many pictures are on those sketches - a ton! I also really like both of the single page sketch books and use those a lot, but if you don't do single pages, don't get those  I'd also agree with checking out the NSD bundle they have on their site right now! It's a download and you get like 37 sketches I think? I got it yesterday and think the variety is AWESOME. |

Thanks, I will check all of those suggestions out! I need to go look to see which one I already have so I don't spend money on something I don't need.
I was looking on their site last night and saw the ebooks but I think I would rather have a printed book vs. an ebook that I would have to look at on my iPad even if I have to pay more. It annoys me to the edges of my sanity to constantly have to keep turning it back on every time it goes to sleep, and don't want to change the length of time before it goes into sleep mode because that will just make the battery go dead faster. It's just easier for me to throw the book I want to use in with my scrapping stuff and go!

I print the downloads out and out them in a binder I might have to do that because I'm not seeing any links to buy the actual printed books on their site and I want to take advantage of the NSD sale. |

linkBut the discount expired on the print books. I think the discount is still good for the downloads, though!
