Just as greeting card shoppers spend time selecting a card that best reflects their personality and that of the recipient, paper crafters like to browse for inspiration to create a handmade card. That's why Paper Crafts magazine editors have gathered more than 365 card ideas, making this book the ultimate resource for inspiration, design, tips and techniques. Like a yearly calendar, the book is divided into months, to guide card makers through tons of new ideas for every occasion imaginable. There also are helpful sections on basic tools and supplies, using color combinations, and hints for basic organization and storage, as well as dozens of sketches for all shapes and sizes of cards.
