Wuvvy gets her own spread, because a) she deserves it and b) there is So Much good work inspired by her. Once again, credit to @greyallison for the D20 coloring book piece, and furthermore to @ostrichchariot for the incredible poem. Detail shots under the cut!
With our girl and particularly her dress, I started out trying to emulate the coloring of the peonies on the bottom border tape (one of my favorite tapes in my collection, btw), and then it sort of turned into half-firework lighting, but the main part is I had tons of fun. Also, I have now seen actual piebald deer in image searches and they are cool af!
Binxhera spread is here!! :D Warm and glowing despite the shadows, a fire burning steady and strong for the ages. Art of our lovely couple once again courtesy of @greyallison - detail shots under the cut!
I turned up the warmth on all of these shots, as is probably obvious. I do wish the shells were the same size, but the Antiquarian Sticker Book was not put together with my singular needs in mind. However, the Shell Pals gist is here for sure. And I was rather proud of putting together the books and the big wave washi tape panel on Andhera's side. Not to mention I finally found the perfect use for the sewing-supplies sample paper I've had in my collection forever! I hope it is sufficiently evocative of BINX and their hodgepodge of useful stuff :3
I'm running out of room in one of the biggest journals I've used in a while but. I had to make pages for my favorite bugbear and owlbear. RueHob spread is HERE 🎉🎉🎉 Shoutout to @greyallison for releasing the Dimension 20 Inktober set, and @yarpell for the Rue piece that was the only conceivable match for this Hob. (also apologies that I could not resist full coloring, and that I had to trim away most of the gorgeous gown to fit the space i had)

Alongside the letter and the Feather, I chose my flowers very carefully, because I can never resist a chance to use floriography. we have:
cornflower - hope
morning glory - affection/humility/uncertainty (T_T)
pansy - thoughts (classic)
forget-me-not - chivalry, light, and truth (I learned today)
Choosing the exact quotes was also really difficult. Probably the longest part of the whole process. And even then I added a few extra lines for each of them, because why not.
Bonus:
Just a closeup to show the gold on Rue's eye and the neckline of their gown. Prettiest owlbear in all of Faerie T_T
They're here to find love matches, save the Bloom, and who knows what else - give it up for the Lords of the Wing!! Thanks once again to @greyallison for the D20 Inktober sketch :3 detail shots under the cut!
These two were a field day for the gold gel pen, as you can see. Also the Antiquarian Sticker Books, including the Mandala one- I had to scour all four to find the perfect birds with which to surround that nest. I lucked out with the wisteria tape: not only does it feature silver bird silhouettes, but wisteria can stand for 'welcome'... aka hospitable. ;) I also have white lilies for sapphic love, as a nod to Esme, and the acacia wreath can stand for both platonic and secret love- for both Squak's hidden engagement to Baroness Alven and his abiding friendship with Chirp. And as a bonus, the strawberries not only allude to those signal fruits our pair wore at the ball, but are a symbol of perfection!
