Customer Reviews

Absolutely beautiful design5
This book has remarkable, one of a kind, designs. Textures and spacing details were inspirational. The cards described are art pieces and do not look "home made". This book is a good addition to my library! My only slightly negative comment is that there are not enough designs spotlighted.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!5
This book is beautiful. I bought it because I wanted to incorperate some of the card ideas with some oriental poetry that I have. this book was everything I hoped it would be and more.
