2.0 out of 5 stars Handmade Hellos, June 12, 2009

By	Art Girl "CAL" (Peachtree City, GA USA) - See all my reviews

The book contains average cards to make and the publisher omitted key templates in the back of the book.
I had to contact publisher and they emailed the templates to me.

By	M. Parris (Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'm thrilled with this book and can't wait to send off some of these incredibly cute cards. My only complaint is that so many of the projects require a Gocco.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great gift or fun project guide!, December 17, 2008

By	Erin E. Murphy (Oakland, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've loved Hello Lucky's cards for a long time, so when this book came out I was excited to steal some of their ideas to pass off as my own! It didn't disappoint. Even the book itself is a treat -- the binding is really easy to manage, and the templates in back are really helpful. I consider myself very low-level crafty skills-wise, but the descriptions and how-to really describes everything very clearly. This is a great gift for crafty friends, or a fun way to pass the afternoon and make unique and special invitations or cards on the cheap!
