Here, nine craft designers show you 12 different crafting techniques that can be used to create beautiful and diverse cards. Methods include iris folding, silk painting, stamping, polymer clay embellishments and lace...The layout is clear and colourful - a real winner! * Practical crafts * Aug 05 Everything you've ever wanted to know about cardmaking - including low-downs on teabag- and iris-folding - is contained within the pages of this inspirational, definitive book. * Popular Crafts * May 05 If you yearn to have a go at all these modern papercrafts but don't know where to start then you might find this book a godsend. This is surely just the thing for anybody who has stood in a craft shop and wondered what all those intriguing items were for - lots of helpful photographic stages, explanations of equipment needed and the nature of the beast in general and in particular. There are old favorites such as rubber stamping and embroidery, Dutch newcomers such as Lace, iris folding and teabag folding and less obvious methods like polymer clay and metalwork. Each section is taken from Search Press' hugely popular Cardmaking series, and gives you the basics about the craft, tells you what you need and gives you usually two projects and a gallery. Useful for a complete beginner (and easy enough to follow) it is just as useful for people who have done a few of the methods and want to have a go at the others. Knowing what you need to obtain is a huge help, particularly in deciding whether a certain method is for you. This book is not a substitute for these other titles as it does not give each book in full, but at GBP12.99/$25.99 it certainly gives a taster for not all that much outlay. I wish it had been available when I took up papercrafts! A very user-friendly primer that has something to say to all most cardmakers as well as beginners. * Myshelf.com * Jul 05 This book comprises of projects and ideas taken from the Handmade Greetings Cards series and provides excellent value for money.
