Graceful Works in Parchment Craft

My New book"Graceful Works in Parchment Craft" will be published on 9th August.
You can pr-order from July 26th and before August 3rd in my site, you will get 2 packs material for Bride and Groom.
I will send you the book from 10th August, and you will receive it about 10~14 days.
My site: http://www.amanda-craft.com.tw/

There are 4 Fans, 2 Bags, How to make Roses and Buds, Vase, Flower Basket, Bride, Groom, Wedding Cake, and 3 Bookmarks in the book. All project designs are romantic and beautiful. You will see grids used with special methods again, with step-by-step instructions of all the projects that will enable you to easily finish each one.

I would like to thank my family and my good friends Miki Green (Guo Yu-Ling) and Linda Moga Rivera for their contribution to this book and to all parchment friends who enjoy my books.

Its publication was delayed for several months. The groom was the most difficult design for me. The other projects were not that easy either. All of my designed projects are also challenges for me, not only in the designing, but also the language. Some steps were very difficult to describe in both Chinese and English. Linda and I spent a lot of time discussing problematic explanations of the instructions, but finally completed this arduous task. Of course Miki always does the perfect art editing.
