Summary: Inspire Creativity
Review: Greeting Card Magic With Rubber Stamps is a great resource for inspiration! This book is filled with terrific ideas right from page one. I like the fact that even a beginner can follow the simple instructions in all the categories. If you think rubber stamping is only a blot of ink on paper, you are WRONG! This book shows you how to emboss your images, color them in, cut them out, shape them, add accessories, and turn them into your unique, personal treasure.

Greeting Card Magic really throws in some great ideas, for example embossing different articles such as flowers or shells, how to create a stamped mosaic, or how to use up those wallpaper scraps. To top it all off, this book is FILLED with wonderful colored photos!!

The 'magic' of this book is how it gets your creative energy flowing. You just can't stop thinking of all the ways to try out your new ideas. Just a hint, there is a really neat idea on page 70...check it out!

Summary: Mary Jo wins again
Review: I have all of Mary Jo's books and each is a treasure. This one is another winnder. Nine chapters cover a number of techniques including paper mosaic with a double-sided tape base, Diamond Glaze 'glazing' on acetate, an image transfer technique using color photocopies and self-adhesive laminate or acetate and shrink plastic tricks & techniques. As usual, Mary Jo's samples are marvelous and each technique is illustrated with step-by-step photos. I HIGHLY recommend this book as well as all of Mary Jo's paper arts books. .

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: More than card-ART
Review: I have been waiting since April to get my hands on Mary Jo McGraw's new book. Of the three, this one is the best. Just when you think there is nothing new to the rubber stamping world, up comes some exciting techniques. Mary Jo gives step by step instructions with photos to match. The illustrations are beautiful, clear, and detailed. Any greeting card made with these techniques will surely be difficult to give away! This book is a must for the rubber stamper's library.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: not really worth the money
Review: I was really disappointed after I got this book. The only good thing is that the author did teach some new techniques. The samples offered are mediocre and not very inspirational. A lot of them look just like collages...not really rubber stamped art that I can learn from. Maria Nerius' book on rubberstamping was much better!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: MaryJo Does IT AGAIN
Review: Mary Jo has done it again. This book has numerous NEW ideas. That's the key NEW. She has come up with so many new ideas and techniques for this book. This is the book that has Laminating College in it- what a wonderful and fun way to college. She uses numerous projects from JUDI-KINS and shows you how to really use them- to create with them. Wonderful book Wonderfully creative Woman. Can't wait for her next book!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: She did it again
Review: MJ McGraw continues a tradition of well written and illustrated books on making artistic magic with rubber stamps in her latest tome. Even if the reader never made ANY of the projects included in this book, her unique ideas and techniques feed the creative muse residing within any art stamper. After reading and following the various project ideas, my mind began to race with ways to incorporate them in new and interesting ways. This book is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for any serious rubber stamp artist who wants his or her work to rise above the ordinary. I am anxious to see what comes next from MJ's imagination.
