About this ebook
This volume in Collins & Brown’s bestselling Ultimate series reveals all the techniques you need to begin making beautiful projects with paper.
The book covers all the basic papercraft techniques, many of which can be achieved using only paper, scissors and glue. There is also a chapter on materials as well as a useful tools section for more advanced papercrafting techniques.
Once you've got the basics covered, you will be amazed at the variety of paper techniques there are to explore. Various paper treatments are covered in the sections on colouring, decorating and texturing. You will learn how to make beautiful cards for family and friends in the cardmaking chapter, and add a special personal touch to gifts by making your own envelopes, giftwrap and gift boxes. The scrapbooking chapter is packed full of ideas on ways to preserve memories of trips and events. Decorative techniques can be found in the papercutting and origami chapters, and there is a final chapter on other papercrafts which includes techniques such as papier maché, decoupage, quilling and advice on the best ways to make your own paper.

Reviews for Ultimate Papercraft Bible
3 ratings1 review
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Everything flows into the next in an uninterrupted chain of text and photos. It feels similar to reading a novel without paragraphs. Too few real life photos, makes it hard to see what the end result will/should look like. A tad skimpy on the step-by-step. This book focuses strictly the technique with no real commentary, whereas I usually want to see ideas on possibilities for exploration, project suggestions, or potential pitfalls.
