This review is from: Paper Pop-Ups (Make It Wih Paper Series) (Paperback)
This book is actually by Paul Jackson, who earns his living by making, and teaching the mechanics of, paper models. See reviews for his "Encyclopedia of Origami and Papercraft Techniques". This book teaches nine project greeting cards, complete with templates. But there are also some instructions on how to accomplish the very basics of pop-up cards, with very clear pictures. I'm beginning to make greeting cards that go beyond the simple ones, and I'm very glad that I got this book.
