In the shade of the cherry blossoms
The little men are slightly set into the book, which is the least noticeable part, but took me a few hours to cut the four niches into the pages. The blossom flowers were made by using a paper punch and then stringing them together with a needle and thread. I used origami paper for both the flowers and the lovely blue background. The tree trunk is a rolled up page within the book with ink rubber stamped to create bark texture.

So many beautiful and inspiring works can be found on this woman’s Flickr set. Do check her out.. I had a hard time picking just one book to feature…
