I love card making - Amy Gooda

If you've ever thought you could do better than the overpriced, mass-produced cards in the shops, then this is the book for you.
Making cards is fun and easy: you don't need any special skills and you already have most of the materials you need at home. Amy Gooda has created 25 cards featuring a range of styles from retro stripes to glamorous gold shimmer to vintage fabric. If you're feeling a bit ambitious, why not try one of the interactive cards that incorporate a badge, fridge magnet or cupcake recipe?
Each project is fully illustrated with step-by-step photographs and instructions and includes ways to customise them; for example Amy shows you how to adapt a festive card to suit a different occasion.
She also guides you through a variety of card-making methods including stamping, embossing and beading and explains all the essential materials and techniques.
A handmade card means a million times more than a shop-bought one and never fails to delight, so why not get cutting, folding and pasting.
