Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - best in its field (of one)
This is the best book I've seen (and I've looked through EVERYTHING at Barnes and Noble and Borders stores) on making all kinds of three-dimensional paper creations. In fact, it's pretty much one of a kind. True, as another reviewer says, it doesn't have patterns for the illustrated projects, but it does have good instructions. I would think that most people would want to come up with their own works by using the illustrated techniques, and being inspired by the author's finished projects. After all, the idea is to be creative, isn't it?



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Where are the patterns?
The illustrations were beautiful, and I was disappointed to learn that patterns were not included.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Good artistic selections
Diane Maure-Mathison does a good job of putting together a nice selection of creative ideas with paper. She focuses on creativity and simple ideas that can be easily expanded. Her work on pop-ups which I was looking for covers the basics but does not go into the details of more complex design.
