Classic techniques--contemporary projects! This second entry in the new Paper Crafts Workshop series proves that traditional methods of crafting can produce some of the most exquisite greeting cards ever. Every idea is eye-opening and lovely: paper lacework, a form of paper weaving knownas papuela, silhouette cutting, iris folding, paper embroidery, paper piercing (Ornare), kaleidoscope folding, and more. With plenty of photos and description to lead the newcomer through every step, and patterns when needed, crafters won't be able to resist making every card. Best of all, the supplies and papers needed to create these unique designs are all easily found at neighborhood scrapbooking stores.
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!
