I received my long anticipated copy of Amy's book and I must say it was even better than I had expected! I knew it would be wonderful, because I have followed every detail that she has worked on for well over a year, but somehow, all together, it is even more than hoped for. Her jewelry, as I'm sure you know, is so beautiful and magical, but her storytelling is special too and I'm glad others finally get to know that creative side of her as well. Yours truly did the illustrations for her; those included the "how to" steps, but also the chapter headers shown here:
and this one on the about the author page (which is my favorite!), as well as tip boxes, page doodles etc.
It was fun to be included in helping her achieve her vision. Amy, all your hours and hours of blood, sweat, and tears of joy were worth it! We all are so proud of you...enjoy the fruits of your labor and then get to work on your next book...maybe about your home, or flea marketing, lifestyle...anything would be great. I love experiencing the world through your eyes, you truly have such unbelievable style and your creative imagination is always an inspiration! xoxp
