Beautiful Cards that Can Actually be done!,
This review is from: The Artful Card (Paperback)
I bought this book because I wanted to make beautiful, boutique-like cards, but couldn't ever quite get the look right. The Artful Card has a combination shabby-chic/whimsical feeling, and the instructions are excellent. There are pictures/instructions for every step of the project.
Well worth the money! I look forward to more books from this author!!!

Love This Book!,

This review is from: The Artful Card (Paperback)
If you love to create unique cards and you like collage effect, this book helps you get there with ease! The designs are eye catching and the instructions simple. I review this book from time to time and it always gets the creative juices flowing again. If you don't like collage or altered cards, don't get this book. Get Simply Cards instead. This one is a winner if you do though.
