Editorial Review: Review: For a detailed guide to a vast array of cardmaking techniques make sure you get yourself a copy of the 'Encyclopedia of Cardmaking Techniques'. Inside are easy to follow step-by-step instructions and photographs of all your favourite techniques including iris folding, embossing, quilling, stamping, beading and punching. The book contains lots of invaluable hints and tips along with a fantastic selection of projects for you to try. --Making Cards, Oct 07 This book is a must-have if you want to brush up on your card making skills. There are 18 different techniques for you to try and whether you're a card making newbie or an old hand, you're sure to find something new to have a go at here. Whether you fancy playing with parchment craft, getting beaded effects or even adding coloured sand to cards, this is the book for you! A variety of experts guide you through their favourite ideas, and there are plenty of step-by-step photos to walk you through every stage. --Papercraft Inspirations, Jan 08 Here is the third compendium of Search Press highly popular Cardmaking Techniques books. Learn how to make cards using punches, eyelets, beads, peel-offs, glass paint, polymer clay and more! Eighteen techniques in all are covered, and you can learn how to make cards, using not only obvious materials such as rubber stamps and glitter, but also how to master the Fiskars parchment craft embossing system or use polymer clay. This latter has to be my favorite, and if you enjoyed messing around with plasticine as a child, this will have a lot of appeal. You have some excellent teachers for these techniques. Big names from the papercraft world such as Janet Wilson, Polly Pinder and Judy Balchin take you through the basics and beyond. There are some lovely cards to make in here, all explained with the usual photographs and easy stages, as well as some gallery pieces and further inspiration. This sort of book would make a great present for the papercrafter in your life - if you can bear to part with it! --Rachel Hyde, MyShelf Synopsis: This new cardmaking compendium comprises material from the following 18 titles in the "Handmade Greetings Card" series: "Punched Cards", "Embossed Cards", "Eyelet Cards", "Glitter Cards", "Metal and Wire Cards", "Polymer Clay Cards", "Silk Ribbon Cards", "Card and Thread Cards", "Quick Parchment Cards", "Glass Painted Cards", "Tea Bag Folded Cards", "Peel-Off Cards", "Rubber Stamped Cards", "Watercolour Cards", "Beaded Cards", "Quilled Cards", "Three-Dimensional Cards", and "Iris Folded Cards".
