Make a greeting card that is a precious gift in itself, the very first time you try. From folding the cardstock to creating a dynamic presentation, this is the beginner's guide that answers every question and provides beautiful templates to copy. Wondering how to mix and match patterned papers, add a window, and use beads and other embellishments? Go straight to those sections and follow the simple instructions. Craft a card that coordinates stripes with French toile prints. Wish everyone a happy holiday with a twirling Christmas Tree Window Card: the tree twirls delightfully on a string. Send a new baby a card with a silver pacifier charm; later, the charm can go on a bracelet or necklace. You'll also learn how to sew objects onto a card, construct a multidimensional card or a pop-up, incorporate pressed flowers or eyelets, design collaged cards, and so much more.

Vanessa-Ann is the author of "Knitting for the First Time" (0806964154), "Decorating Magic" (140270593X) and is co-author of "The Ultimate Scrapbooking Book" (0806958316).
In a workable format, a series of questions is posed and answers given that instruct and entertain about a specific craft and its techniques--again, from Chapelle Studios and its resident genius, Vanessa-Ann. This time, the subject is greeting cards and their how-tos. Although this guide in no way matches some of the most recent publications in terms of artistry, it does introduce novices to the ins and outs of applying scissors to papers, then adding trims and adhesives. Four sections define the content, each progressively more detailed and intricate; the author starts with the basics and basic techniques, then proceeds beyond the basics to creative presentations. Projectsincludepop-ups, accordion pleats, punch art, pockets for confetti, rubber and postage stamps, among a wealth of suggestions. Enough patterns and instructions are included to satisfy the noncreative types. Barbara Jacobs
