Paper Artist

While I am not necessarily the craftiest person, I am a bit of a paper addict. Scrap booking, card making, and creating all sorts of other paper projects are my idea of fun. I, however, was blown away by the creativity of Paper Artist: Creations You Can Fold, Tear, Wear and Share by Kara L. Laughlin and Jennifer Phillips. This is no ordinary paper craft book – this goes far beyond inspiring page layouts and beautiful card designs so that you can create paper projects that are as beautiful as they are diverse. With clear directions and beautiful photos, you can learn how to quickly create earrings, a headband, a paper purse, a paper flowered necklace, and even a paper hat. My favorite project, by far, though, was the paper scarf – it is beautiful and stylish and I can’t wait to make it. There aren’t any crazy items needed to make these beautiful projects, and the directions are so clear that crafters of any level will find a project that they feel confident doing. With over 114 pages of crafty ideas and inspiration, paper lovers are sure to find a project that will be fun and beautiful. This book is well worth adding to your shelf!
