Description

Create your own unique handmade greetings cards with confidence. Despite the digital world we live in, there's something special about sending and receiving handwritten cards. In fact, studies show that people have a stronger emotional response to physical cards than they do to emails or messages. This practical book provides all the inspiration and advice you need to get started with card-making, along with ten visually exciting projects from professional designers. You'll learn various techniques such as silkscreen printing, textile foiling, letterpress, and stitched motifs, using inexpensive materials that are easily accessible. The book also features behind-the-scenes insights into the studios of these artists, tips for achieving a professional finish, and information on licensing designs commercially. With clear step-by-step instructions and beautiful photography, you'll be able to create your own unique cards and take card-making to the next level. Whether you're looking to make gifts or sell your creations, this book has everything you need to know.
