Amazon.com Review: Although the expected is here (note cards, wrapping paper, boxes), so is the delightfully unexpected (a fire screen, a chef's hat and apron, a coffee table, ceramic dishware, candles), all of it attractively handled. The majority of the more than 40 projects are home-decor pieces, and there are also various clothing items and paper products, plus some nice children's items, presented with good step-by-step directions and clear color photos. The instructional emphasis is more on individual items than on whole rooms, but a number of photo spreads show fully coordinated effects, from walls to window treatments to bed linens to a hutch full of various accessories. --Amy Handy
doesn't hold up in 2006...: this book is now 10 years old. I purchased it on a bargain book site and sadly it's not even worth the bargain price. While having lovely glossy photos-this book LITERALLY is about stamping on items-and that's the craft of it. Every project is just an item that has been stamped on. No techniques or inventive uses of art materials in new ways. Unless you have never stamped a stamp in your life, there is NOTHING new this book can teach you. This book is for beginners only. Save your money. 1 star.
Beautiful projects and excellent photographs make it easy!: This book contains many projects for home decorating and gifts. The full-color photos give the reader creative ideas and enhance the instructions well. The books also contains some history tidbits and some very useful tips to make your stamping experience fun and productive.
