Greetings! Happy Tuesday!
It’s time for another giveaway, dear readers. This month’s offering is a beautiful book, handmade by yours truly. I was guided through the construction of this book at a gathering of some of my local art friends, and think the combination of the rich, Italian cover paper and the thick, creamy watercolor paper inside is luscious. Hopefully you agree, and will enter to win! The book is approximately 4” x 5 3/4”, and contains 32 pages. It’s perfect for journaling or gathering your favorite quotes, and would also make a lovely gift.
I’ll announce the winner of this handmade book a week from today, on November 15, 2011, so please enter by Monday, November 14, 2011. To enter, simply leave a comment on this post. Good luck everyone!
Warm regards,
Melody

You did such a lovely job making this beautiful book .I just love the colors. Thank you for the giveaway!
Wow what a beautiful book. I am just starting to art jounal. Useing free (loose) pages at the moment, this would be a lovely book to start in.
Melody, I see you love those rich Italian papers as much as I do. I use them on cards as background papers, people are always drawn to them when purchasing, as they look soooooo ‘expensive’! This is a truly one-of-a-kind book anyone would be proud to own. Keep up the super work!
