Limited appeal - Rated As a raw beginner, I found that the projects in this book were not really what I was looking for. I would have liked more variety, and in particular themed cards, such as Christmas, Easter etc. There was a paucity of detail on how to paint or dorse projects, and I found the fact that I had to enlarge the patterns to use them very irritating. I struggled to get the size accurate using a scanner, and had to use a photocopier instead. There are better books on the market for the price. Greater starter book for parchment work - Rated This book makes parchment work seem dead easy to the beginner which I am. It goes through the different types of parchment craft and each section has a worked example relating to the skills being used. As you move through the book the various techniques come together to produce detailed and fine parchment work. I especially liked the 3-D section because it seems a little more practical than just card making. The book review only deserves 4 stars because most of the projects are sketched in a reduced format and as this was a holiday gift book, and as I don't have access to an enlarging photocopier - I'm a little stuck until I get to one. Overall though, a charming book making the craft look really easy and accessible.
