Hi friends,
This did NOT turn out like I wanted!!! the book was too big and well, I just don't like it! I might do another some other time with a book maybe half this size. The only think I like is the rose and words. I did the coloring different than usual for me and I sorta like it in this case anyway.

Robin, I think it's gorgeous! The flower is colored beautifully! I like the brass corners. Is the Japanese paper the pretty paper underneath the image with bits of shiny strips? I think it's stunning!!!
Composition book! I hate it when I temporarily forget a word!
I think your journal is really pretty. You should be proud of it. Someone will enjoy it immensely.

I think it's exquisite. Very feminine and dainty. The corners give it elegance. How did you adhere the paper? I've never done one of these....need to check out some tutorials. tfs

Very elegant with pretty details and lovely coloring. I know what you mean about the scale being challenging; I've found the same thing true when attempting to alter canvases.
