Paper Inspirations by Cheryl Owen
From pearlised cards and translucent vellum, to petal-embossed sheets and marbled prints, the paper available for papercrafting is excitingly varied. The characteristics of different papers are clearly explained and illustrated in the introduction and suggestions given for the crafts they are most suited to, with practical tips on cutting and folding techniques and the best adhesives to use. The 38 project ideas all use different types of paper, and include cards, gift wrap, stationery, boxes and scented sachets. There is a step-by-step guide to basic techniques, plus ideas are provided for decorating plain papers including embroidery, stamping, gilding, relief pens and hole punching.
