Experienced author Polly Pinder's new book shows you how to make beautiful oriental-themed cards. Starting with a section on materials and techniques, Polly shows you how to use various Eastern-inspired techniques and designs to make wonderful cards, taking in delicate glass painting, embossing and piercing, working with wires and beads and origami techniques.

Polly Pinder studied graphics at Leeds Art College. Her first job was with a Yorkshire newspaper, and she subsequently worked as a lecturer in graphic design at Wakefield District College. She has written and illustrated a number of books on a variety of other subjects including cake decoration and growing herbs, papermaking and paper crafts. Her illustrations in Muck and Magic were commended when that book won the 1993 Sir Peter Kent Conservation Book Prize. She has also designed bed linen and wallpapers, and the graphics for a wallpaper book based on newly-discovered eighteenth-century wallpapers. Polly now works from her pottery studio creating beautiful, small-batch candle holders and large food platters.
