Customer Reviews

I love this book!

I am new to paper cutting but I am a scrapbooker/card maker. This book opened up a whole new world to me! She gives just simple instructions that make me feel like I can do this - and do this I have! I've used this book over and over and I love her designs and her ideas. I also like that the patterns are easily enlarged if need be on my printer. This makes it easy to fit the paper cutting to the project that I am working on. I highly recommend this book and I hope this author comes out with another soon.

Yes, but.....

I mostly agree with the other reviewer said...BUT... I did see that Alison "Highly recommended..." this book in her newest (2007-2008) catalog, so I took a chance. (With a MUCH lower price here.) Ideas are GREAT, techniques are fair, patterns are fuzzy and not actual size. I'm an advanced cutter & I WILL use this book....but it will take some simple doctoring, to make them look as clean and sharp as the pictures in the book. After looking through the book (AND not remembering what I'd paid), I told myself it was worth a MAXIMUM of $15.00, for idea & pattern value. I paid less than that, so I'm satisfied. I give it a 4 and know that a beginner could benefit with the good ideas & simple patterns.
