Once again, this book comes from my extensive collection of somewhat under utilised art/craft books. I've had it for a while and often delve into it for another look. Well, I thought it was about time I looked, and actually read it, pretty much from cover to cover.
The book contains 17 individual projects, using both paper and fabric, (and everything in between), with explanations and instructions which appear to be clear and easy to follow. The "useful" tools and supplies mentioned at the beginning are not compulsory (that's my kind of supplies), alternatives are suggested and the authors don't insist on particular brands. You might already have most of these items. All the projects are interesting and even perhaps a bit "quirky". (Again, this appeals to me. This is not "Cardmaking 101".) Even if you don't want to do all (or any) of the projects, there is a lot of inspiration and useful techniques. There are quite a few projects which I would actually like to get around to making. Both the authors have a friendly and chatty style, which, in my opinion, makes for interesting reading.

I love to hear your opinion, no need for a disclaimer. The book sounds interesting (have I seen this one? It looks familiar). I think we should do a book swap you have a lot more books then me and I may not need to buy anymore from amazon.
