Exciting

This is a very well done, informative, clearly illustrated, exciting How-To book. If you are interested in making cards, it is well worth the investment.

A very inspiring book...

After receiving this book, I immediately read it cover to cover and was so inspired that I began making my own cards that very night!It's a beautiful, well-written, well-illustrated, "meaty" kind of book that offers some truly unique and attractive ideas. There's no fluff here, just creative designs with lots of possible applications...something interesting on every page.

Handcrafted Cards : From Elegant to Whimsical : 60 Distincti

I'm so pleased. The book is full of wonderful photos, instructions, ideas and patterns. The patterns are small so you'd have to enlarge, but I still love it. I'm new to stamping and card making and this looks like a lot of fun.

A Really Classy Book

I recently purchased 5 books on card-making/rubberstamping. This was BY FAR the best of the entire collection. The directions and photos are outstanding. A lot of other information is given which will contribute to your success in creating one of a kind cards. There is something in this book for everyone, from beginners to more advanced abilities and there are projects which cover many interests. THIS IS A MUST HAVE!

Very well done, very complete, very inspiring!

One of the best books I have seen on handcrafted cards yet! What can I say, I really love this book. Perfect for any level crafter the weath of information in this book will keep you going for a long time to come! Lots of helpful information from prose to put inside your cards, to postal tips, to wonderful creative juice stirring information. You will not be disappointed in this book! Get your scissors and paper out and start playing! Well done Paige Gilchrist! Bravo!
