A host of exciting projects are described including a talking crow puppet, a party mask, a friendship bracelet, a gift box, greetings cards, a desk tidy container and a whirly twirly! The emphasis on Paper Capers is on simplicity, imagination and FUN - a combination that will provide many hours of pleasure for every reader.
