I love this book! As a beginning paper crafter, I was looking for something to help me get to the next level with developing my skills. I was not sure where to start with techniques I had not tried yet, such as stamping and embossing, and this book has very clear and concise instructions, advice and ideas. The pictures are great as well. This book has opened a lot of card-making ideas for me, and I will be sure to use it often.
