Can anyone recommend a book about using mixed media?

Since I got the Memories of the Mouse embellishment kit I need to discover how to use the wire, beads and thread. I have an idea what the eyelets can be used for but I need a book to help me with the rest.
Thanks!

A great one is "Designing with Notions" by Heidi Swapp, Robin Johnson and Debbie Crouse. It's published by Pixie Press. It's full of awesome ideas and beautiful work and includes ideas for cards, gifts, etc., not just scrapbook pages.

Paperkuts published a book called "PK Tips and Techniques" (I think that's the title) and it's really good, too.

Another good one is "Buttons, Bows, Strings and Things." This would be my 3rd choice of these three, however.

I met Robin Johnson and took her classes on 'Designing with Notions' last October and they were really fun -

I didn't buy the book, but I have her first book, Designing with Vellum, and I really loved that, so I would expect the Notions book will also be excellent.

Apart from that, she's just a really nice lady
