There is a typo for this book listing.Title is Handmade cards, over 50 original designs for all occasions. All kinds of papercrafts are explored. Very colorful photos, of projects and steps to make them. This covers stencilling pin-pricking, making windows. Many kinds of paper are painted,folded & glued to make all kinds of cards. Wire, beads, silk & wood, tho most cards are stunning not "weird". A very creative book (from England) to inspire you like it did me. It let me try new ways of making cards. It took time, but the cards were just like pictured when I was done. Then I could run with my imagination, & make variations on the technique I learned. I am very impressed by this lovely book. Concertina notecards, pop-ups- sun/moon, paper cutting, collage,paint resist and MORE - one project of each to learn new things.
