Somebody reminded me that I needed to show the finished versions of a couple of pages I'd blogged as works in progress, so here they are. Several people commented on the above when it was on my workdesk to say that they admired the background, so this is where I admit the truth that it is actually a piece of scrapbook paper rather than brilliantly original work ... sorry, but there it is. Wish I had made it actually, but I didn't - what I did do is (according to my ecological principles) recycle part of my vast stash of paper offcuts.However, the page below is entirely my own and I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. I really like making the writing lie in layers across the page like this, as it always makes me think about the layers and strata of the people we are. From the face we show to the world to the deepest most hidden parts of ourselves. The sentiments here are something of a counsel of perfection, but that's no reason not to try to fulfil them is it??

Both are stunning, but especially the second one!
Your own hand drawn angel is just divine...ooops! no pun intended! But I also like the first one too...if we ever meet in that cul-de-sac we can share a snifter of whiskey ;)

Beautiful pages Rosie...I rather suspect that He doesn't consider you any bother at all.
Rosie. Before Sarah died I think we were going to correspond? but I can't find your email - please disregard this if I have got muddled in my madness of the last month - but if you do want contact please just resend an email and we can chat privately...
