Weddings, Birthdays, Christmas, Get Well, Good Luck and more: the variety of occasions on which a handmade card would be appreciated is endless!

Each project has two illustrated variation ideas, while eight pages of galleries offer yet more design inspiration and help.

I bought this book as a Xmas present for my daughter, and as usual from Amazon the delivery was excellent. The book is very visual with page after page of colourful photographs and a great cover which shows much of what you get inside.
My daughter was very pleased with it and has already produced cards from ideas gained from the book.
Overall an excellent product

The cover has some good looking cards but inside 80% plus of the cards looked so tacky that I didn't even want to make similar ones! Very childlike. Read more
