A book lover here. I held out against a Kindle for many years, and then after a work colleague loaned me hers to take on holidays I asked DH to get me one for Christmas. I still prefer a real book, but it's wonderful having unlimited reading material on holidays without having to either buy secondhand books I can leave behind or dedicate space and weight to library books which need to be brought back.
This bookshelf with its wide variety of books is a fair representation of my tastes. My bedside table currently holds John leCarre, a cookery book, a book about birds and their songs, poetry, science, a daily devotional ,and travel biography. I couldn't possibly pick a favourite genre: I do really like Golden Age detective fiction, but the books I probably reread the most are Terry Pratchett's Discworld series.
I coloured my image with Polychromos pencils, added s frame cut from faux wood, and finished it off with a birthday sentiment.

Sabrina this is the perfect stamp to have for this challenge and so wonderfully coloured - I have recently purchased Polychromos and I love using them! Terrific card!

Wonderful book shelf Sabrina. I too enjoy holding a book or magazine in my hands even though I have a Kobo for travelling. I miss Terry P and have read all of his several times. I'm glad to see a camera and eyeglasses on your shelves. I have glasses left all over the house. :-) Lovely card!
