I'm teaching another class at The Beetroot Tree very soon....this time making Lotus Flower Books. I've been practising for the past week - they are rather sweet and open out in different ways.
I've had great fun making loads of papers to take along with me and have stamped them with my own hand-carved rubber stamps.
I was inspired a lot by my lovely new friend Maggi at To Dream To Stitch.
We arranged to meet each other last week (a blind date!) and we spent the day visiting Peartree Yard craft centre, Cachepot (coffee in the garden and beautiful shop) and Andersons (yet more coffee). She brought lots of gorgeous little books to show me and kindly gave me this one......
....its quite tiny and sits neatly in the palm of my hand. It has beautiful hand-made papers inside.I hope we'll get to meet again very soon.; despite talking for 6 hours, I don't think we covered everything.........

Oh wow!!! What a fantastic idea those gorgeous books are... and those scrummy papers are sure to encourage heaps of inspiration for those attending your next 'class'too.
Wonderful!

Gosh I´ve missed my words.
Amazing book work Linda. Love it.
I found you through Emma and her birthday swap. These flower books are lovely and your digital collage
inspired me to work on some of my own today. Thanks! Corrine
These books are awesome--what a fantastic class this is going to be!
Beautiful colour pallet you have chosen for the papers, books and digital art.
beautiful beyond words ..... magical!!!
Love the books and love your stamps!!! Maybe someday you'll do an online tutorial on folding those little books? :>)
Sounds like a very fun class!
The books are fantastic Linda. I was very tempted to come and do some with you but I have a return visit to the dentist on that day.
Great work Linda !!
Love the stamps and the paper .
