Started a Notebook Cover for Wife

Recommended Posts

Started a notebook cover for my wife. She loves sunflowers and butterflies, along with clover and honey bees.
Tomorrow hopefully will start on tooling the inside flaps.

Very pretty.  The background nicely sets off the artwork.

Thank you, we wanted the art to be the focal point.

 

Finished the notebook cover at 3:00 am this morning. Laid it beside her while she was sleeping. When the cat got her up, she squealed, and slept the rest of the night holding it like a teddy bear.

That is very beautiful. Did you create the design yourself?

The carvings are from images we found on google. The cover was fitted to the notebook.

You have put everything together very beautifully. One would never know you picked the images off Google.

Nice job!  The bee looks great and that flower on the back end flap turned out really well.

Thank you, funny thing is the back flap is the one I struggled with most.
