DESCRIPTION:
Beautiful garden/nature scenes – printed on both sides of non-perforated page iiiireader [[VIDEOID:2166cdc935f7fa1857ccd06520631870]]This is a very pretty book of excellent hand-drawn nature designs. It is in the kind of square format that many of the artist coloring books are now taking. The cover is quite lovely with touches of red foil on it. The designs center around animals and plants you would find outside in the garden or in the woods. There are mice, birds, deer, rabbits, squirrels, owls and cats. There are many designs of flowers and leaves.I counted 55 separate designs. Of these designs, 12 of them span across two pages. A few of the pages of these in my book did not line up and were off slight. O. "Beautiful but printed on both sides and not scored" according to PaulaP. This is a beautiful book with very appealing designs that I hope might be suitable name signs for preemies in the NICU I worked. The one very bad thing is that the pages are not scored and they are printed on both sides. I had to cut them out with a razor blade and then do a straight cut with my paper cutter. I also loved the patterns so much that I ordered another and did the same thing. I wish this company would score the pages as I have seen others in the series that are the same.. Amazon Customer said Awesome art work and printed on super-fine smooth paper. Awesome art work and printed on super-fine smooth paper. The only downside is that a lot is double sided. I had my copy spiral bound at Staples. This is a definite keepsake book. Hoping she comes out with another book.

Adult coloring book fans will delight in these beautifully drawn and inviting idyllic settings. Each drawing imparts a welcome sense of calm, and the book also includes eight pages of aspirational full-color art plus two heavy-stock pages that can be cut ou
