Default adult coloring books

Hi Ladies I am thinking about getting an adult coloring book. does anyone know of any particular brand that would come in the size of an a2 card so we can use the pictures we colored on the cards? I thought I heard Crayola did but I have not found one yet that would work.
Thanks,
Bonnie

I saw this calendar at Barnes and Noble the other day. The images will be smaller than A2 but that gives you some room to mat and embellish and work with sentiments.

They also had on one of their sale tables a small book where the pages were about postcard sized (and it was bound on the short edge like a postcard book usually is), but I don't recall the name.

Something else you could do is color the big pages and cut them into segments to use on cards.

I have the ones from Hot Off the Press, and they are perfect for cards. I've already made 3.

A number of companies have postcards to color. I like them because they are single sided and thick enough since they are meant to be sent in the mail without an envelope. You can easily trim them to fit an A2 card. While not all of these are postcards, you can see quite a few examples of them here:

The first coloring book for adults I bought was about 15 years ago. The title is "Coloring Your Prayers". I had a great time with that book! I always kept my eye out for another one, but never saw one. About a year and a half ago I bought one or two more. I was thrilled!

I now have maybe five or six. I love to sit on my deck in the spring/summer/fall and color!

I haven't seen any postcard size images to color. It sounds like there are some out there though!

I'm also in WI! Waving hi from the west coast of WI to you on the east coast of WI!!!!!

Every time I read this title, I think "color pictures of naked people doing unmentionable things".... I know that is crazy because I have multiple "adult coloring books", it just makes me laugh.
