by Sarah Beaman

More than 300 photographs and illustrations, plus easy-to-follow instructions and a host of imaginative techniques, turn greeting and holiday card making into a quick and fun art for anyone. Although the 5 holiday and birthday-themed projects featured here cut crafting time dramatically, each one still showcases plenty of flair and creative touches. The clever decorative tricks and techniques include working with paper fasteners, stenciling, printing with found objects, and even potato printing. There are tips for choosing paper, inks, and other materials, along with instructions for setting up a miniature assembly-line operation that can produce 100 or more handmade cards in a surprisingly short time.

Had this book. Cards still take a while to do as you need the materials and equipment.
