Pocket Doodle Book pages 23-25 and bonus pages

I have finished this pocket doodle book and above are pages 23 and 24.  I emphasised the background rather than the pattern on page 23 and just added large dots of white and black for page 24.
Page 25 started with triangles, but then morphed into other shapes, some on stalks and some not.
These were extra pages (because I didn't count the pages as well as I thought, but they were decorated anyway (yes, more circles!)
The final bonus page was decorated with small gold circles and large gold flower outlines, which you can just about see.
I enjoyed this project a lot and will be continuing my creative projects next year (the monthly Artists' Trading Card project for a start).

    Such a lovely project Ellie. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I am inspired to have a go myself now.

      Thanks, sustainablemum. I am so pleased that you enjoyed it. I definitely recommend it as it is doable - it only takes a few minutes and is on a small scale, so the 'empty page' isn't so daunting (especially if there is a background already). Also it is great for 'me time', which is so important in our busy lives (and you get a lovely little finished book in the end). I will certainly be making more of these, I think.
      Best wishes

    I am so glad you enjoyed it - and also very glad that you shared your creations.
    Many, many thanks. And of course you will continue to create. I think your creativity is at least as integral to you as your skeleton.

      Thanks, EC. Your comments are always so supportive and I really do appreciate them. I think you are right about creativity and I find making things is becoming even more important to me as I get older.
      Here's to lots more creative projects in 2020!
      Best wishes

    So beautiful Ellie. Now you have finished the book, will you keep it 'as is' just for the pleasure of having it, or will you use individual pages for something like card making?

      Thanks, Jayne. I think I will keep it as it is. I have lots of gel plate prints (as I tend to make a lot in a printing session) which I can use for card making or art journaling projects.
      Best wishes
