Customer Reviews

Great book for beginner and experienced card crafters alike!

I like craft books that 1. have big color photos of finished projects, 2. easy, concise instructions, and 3. options, options, options (so that my projects aren't always identical!). This book has all that and more. Ms. Browning's instructions are easy to follow. The projects are simple, yet beautiful. I liked that I was able to complete the projects quickly, but boy they looked time-consuming! Best of all, her ideas awakened the creative muse inside me!
