"A great source for techniques and inspirations for those who want to create and swap Artist Trading Cards. Even if you are not interested in ATCs, there are plenty of pages of inspiration to use in the art and crafts of your choice."
"This book has wonderful visual inspiration. There is some how to with pictures and limited writing. The book covers using multiple materials. There is a gallery of visual artist works."
"If I'd had this book years ago, I could toss out all my other books on collage, altered books, decoupage, etc. This book describes in detail every technique you need to collage, decoupage, and decorate on paper or whatever medium you choose. It also discusses the various mediums and paints used and has excellent instructions for each card pictured. And, yes, the pictures are exquisite eye candy, as another viewer mentioned. They also inspire and get you motivated to make your own cards.
I have to add a warning, though: making these art cards is highly addictive and can make a total mess of your living space and lead to harder core projects, like decorated boxes and journals. In my little corner of the den at home I now have containers of paint, glue, paint brushes, cut-up magazines, 2 T.V. trays full of projects. So consider yourself warned!"
