Product Description

Product Description

Parchment craft, the art of piercing and embossing translucent parchment paper to create delicate, lace-like designs, originated in the cloisters of Spain in the 15th century. This book shows, in colour step-by-step sequences, how to trace, perforate, emboss, cut and tint the parchment paper to create greeting cards and bookmark designs. There are 22 projects shown in colour, together with full-size patterns and easy-to-follow instructions for each one. Readers can mix and match the motifs and borders, including butterflies, flowers, fans, a carnival mask and an exotic bird.

This book is a delight to browse through and inspiring to work from. Like other books from Search Press, it is well laid out, with beautiful illustrations and good patterns for a wide assortment of cards and some bookmarks. Instructions are clear, and cover a wide variety of techniques which include embossing, piercing, lace work, colour techniques and adding inserts. There are additional pictures which can be photocopied and and enlarged to make additional patterns, and suggestions for making one's own patterns. I have done some parchment craft before, but still found a lot in this book to help and inspire me. I consider it to be excellent value.

Parchment Craft 21 Sep 2009
By C. Mogg
Format:Paperback
This is my first book that I purchased to learn how to do this craft.
The book is very detailed with all the items you will need to start off with.
There are also some patterns, easy for the less experienced, then going on to the more hard lacey patterns.
It is indeed worth buying if you are interested in Parchment craft or for someone who makes cards, this book will make a brilliant present.
This book is well worth the money.
