3-D Paper Craft – Create Fun Paper Cutouts from Plain Paper Book

I’m retired and to keep myself busy I dabble in arts and crafts. I enjoy scrapbooking, crocheting, cross stitch, weaving and paper crafts. I’m not artistic like my daughter Shelly, so the projects that I make need to be easy and affordable.

Title: 3-D Paper Craft
Publisher: Dover Publications
ISBN: 9780486842769

I’ve never tried paper crafts like this before, so I’m a complete newbie to this medium. One of the things I really like about this book is that its for beginners and those who have experience can learn new tricks and creative inspiration from it. In the front of the book you’ll find a How-to-Make section which will teach you step-by-step how to complete the projects and supplies that you’ll need.

The book is broken down into 4 chapters aka project sections. You’ll find: Decorative, Plain, Cubic Shapes and Chain Patterns. The book is packed full of patterns that you can enlarge or shrink to suit your own needs. Each pattern gives you the recommended photocopying percentage, a guide to the fold lines, cutting lines, etc.

Once you complete a project you can use it for all sorts of different things. You can use your paper masterpieces to decorate the walls in your home, as party decorations, in your scrapbooking projects, as embellishments on your handmade greeting cards, to make invitations and all sorts of other things. Crafting with paper is an affordable hobby that you can enjoy.
