Create unique dimensional cards such as pop-ups, pull-outs, fun shapes, lift the flap and flower petal sachets. Imagine the delight when someone opens one of your handcrafted cards! Each card also includes a suggestion, generally quick & easy, for adding a coordinating element to the envelope.

In addition to greeting cards and invitations, there are also several party favor ideas. The themes in the book are varied wedding rehearsal, graduation, Father's day, birthday, get well, tea party, baby shower, Halloween, Christmas and Thinking of You. If you've considered making cards or are already addicted and looking for new ideas, then this is a great place to start.

Creating is both a passion and a profession for author Margaret Hanson-Maddox who has been a free-lance designer in the craft industry for over 20 years.
