A friend introduced this craft to me and I am hooked. This craft is so easy to do , inexpensive and the sky's the limit re: your creativity. You can make such neat personalized cards for family and friends who will be impressed. The styles and shapes of the various patterns are wonderful to look at as well as intriguing. This craft can be done by anyone, no experience necessary.

This is my second book by Gaasenbeck. It has loads of patterns and nice colored pictures. It was easy to follow her directions and my cards came out beauitful. Recommend this to anyone!

If you start early, this would be a lovely gift for loved-ones, and you can stick a little gift certificate into it.

I highly recommend this book. The designs are more varied and colorful and sophisticated than most American Iris folding books I've seen. You can use heavy weight Christmas wrap for some fabulous results. They use the European method of using folded strips of paper in their designs, but they can also be done the American way of using unfolded strips which makes the designed images much thinner and easier to mail. Folding Style not withstanding, these are beautiful designs and not that hard.

I am a novice iris-folder and found the instructions and illustrations to be within my grasp, yet including more difficult projects for the more advanced user. I would recommend it to anyone interested in this craft.

This book is for anyone that likes to make handmade cards. A very simple technique for all ages.I use the Fiskers templates along with my Iris Folding for amazing results. A must have book for your crafting collection.

Iris folding is a beautiful technique. I was pleased to see that Amazon.com had some books about it. This book "Iris Folding for Christmas is great-not only does it have clear instructions, but it has several holiday templates, which are very important in iris folding.
