5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful projects organized around a theme for each month, January 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Rubber Stamp Celebrations: Dazzling Projects from Personal Stamp Exchange (Hardcover)

The projects in this book are shown in beautiful photographs with easy to follow instructions. There are twelve "groups" of projects - one group for each month and each month has a theme. The cards are stunning. As an avid stamper, there were new techniques described that I have not seen at my local stamp stores nor in other books or magazines. If you like to look at beautiful examples for inspiration, then I highly recommend this book.
