Create cards and other small works of art, using pressed flowers and materials such as handmade papers, spices, beads, fabric and more. Styles range from highly ornate designs to simple botanical cards. This book does not give instructions for pressing flowers, but rather, step-by-step instructions for making each design, with a list of materials needed, as well as color photos of each project.
96 pages hardcover (over half are full page, color photos)

This book will draw you back time and time again! The card collages that Penny Black comes up with are beautiful and will allow you to springboard with your own ideas...Although this book does not contain pressing instructions, the visual aids it provides are enough. I love this book and paid 4 times as much for it...get it at these prices!! It will become one of your favorites too, I'm sure.

If you are intrigued by the delicate beauty of pressed flowers, handmade cards and original designs, then this book will steal your heart. Clear, easy to follow instructions and stunning photographs will give you all the help you need to make unique cards which if they end up half as beautiful as the ones pictured in the book will delight anyone who will receive them
