Greeting Card Magic With Rubber Stamps is a great resource for inspiration! This book is filled with terrific ideas right from page one. I like the fact that even a beginner can follow the simple instructions in all the categories. If you think rubber stamping is only a blot of ink on paper, you are WRONG! This book shows you how to emboss your images, color them in, cut them out, shape them, add accessories, and turn them into your unique, personal treasure.Greeting Card Magic really throws in some great ideas, for example embossing different articles such as flowers or shells, how to create a stamped mosaic, or how to use up those wallpaper scraps. To top it all off, this book is FILLED with wonderful colored photos!!The 'magic' of this book is how it gets your creative energy flowing. You just can't stop thinking of all the ways to try out your new ideas. Just a hint, there is a really neat idea on page 70...check it out!
She did it again

MJ McGraw continues a tradition of well written and illustrated books on making artistic magic with rubber stamps in her latest tome. Even if the reader never made ANY of the projects included in this book, her unique ideas and techniques feed the creative muse residing within any art stamper. After reading and following the various project ideas, my mind began to race with ways to incorporate them in new and interesting ways. This book is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for any serious rubber stamp artist who wants his or her work to rise above the ordinary. I am anxious to see what comes next from MJ's imagination.
Mary Jo wins again

I have all of Mary Jo's books and each is a treasure. This one is another winnder. Nine chapters cover a number of techniques including paper mosaic with a double-sided tape base, Diamond Glaze 'glazing' on acetate, an image transfer technique using color photocopies and self-adhesive laminate or acetate and shrink plastic tricks & techniques. As usual, Mary Jo's samples are marvelous and each technique is illustrated with step-by-step photos. I HIGHLY recommend this book as well as all of Mary Jo's paper arts books. .
