More Images of "Little Bird" Journal


You may remember a few posts back that I was commissioned by Gisele

to create a Nature Journal as a special gift
to give to a friend of hers
and
she decided to call it "Little Bird".
This name had special connotations to Gisele -
so now that her friend, Elisa, has received her gift from Gisele
I thought I would post some of the images
to share with you!

I would like to mention here that Gisele is hosting a GIVEAWAY
on her blog (see details on the Right Hand Side near the top here to check it out).


The front cover displays a collaged image of a bird
with came from Dawn at
Thank you for that lovely image Dawn!

And
now for some pages:



Even some gum leaves from our property


and grevillea leaves covered with vintage webbing


These are dried Ornamental Grapevine leaves
along with some
dried Hydrangea leaves
so delicate
with their veins showing through.




And finally here are the layers upon layers of lace, paper, fabric and silks.


Wishing you all a beautiful Sunday whether it is coming or going
in your part of the world.

Thankyou to all my new followers - your comments are so appreciated!


 With love,
Suzy xxx

  12. Hi my dear Suzy,
    this is a most beautiful journal. I love the front with the bird, sitting on her wonderful nest- did you paint the leaves yourself? they gives such a fantastic light to the bird and the nest colour .
    And all the pages with real nature items inside are fabolous, the reciever have been holding her breath when opening this art journal.
    You are doing wonders my dear friend.
    I love you, and send you a warm hug.
    xx, Dorthe

  19. The journal is just magnificent, dear Suzy and your attention to the details is amazing. I love how you covered the nest with tulle. What a great idea. All the real leaves make such a great addition to the fabrics, laces and papers. Elisa must have been very excited when she had received this fantastic gift.
    Wishing you a wonderful week and sending lots of hugs and kisses to you :-),
