Customer Reviews

Disapointing2
If you are interested in fun, playful cards, then this is not the book for you. Most of the cards in this book are what I would call, "boring." There are a lot better books out there. Save your money.

Its ok3
I bought this just starting out, and to be honest. I find more fun stuff to do on-line. How many of us have these supplies to make stained glass looks and special gold stuff. Unless your rich and can afford all these supplies. Don't bother. Search the internet for ideas.

Just alright, not great3
I borrowed this from the library and was glad I did, because while it was alright, it was not great. Only a few of the cards made me want to try them out such as the "stained glass effect", quilling. There also better books if you are a beginner to card making.
