The Card Book

Everyone appreciates the thought and care behind a homemade card. In this book, Susan Attenborough shows that, far from being daunting, making your own greeting cards is fun, easy and satisfying.

Here are 30 ingenious and imaginative designs for a wide range of greetings cards. They include cards for birthdays, the birth of a baby, a new home, good luck, Valentine's Day and wedding anniversaries. Ideas for Christmas, Easter, Diwali and other religious festivals are all included.

Twelve craft techniques, including pop-ups, slot-ins, quilling and embossing, are explained step-by-step with the aid of clear, detailed photographs and a template section. With this original collection of creative greetings card projects as an inspiration you will never need to buy a commercially made card again.
