Enchanted Forest: 20 Postcards

I saw this in a shop and retailing for £9.99 and couldn't justify buying it, even as a gift (as it was intended). To have found it via Amazon at a price I can afford (even with the addition of p&p) was a real joy, and so are the post cards.Not only are the pictures all unique, the designs are very different from one and another. Hence, there is nothing dull, boring or samey about this little post card book. The post cards are made of thick, strong and obviously good quality white card. The binding is solid and the design of the whole thing is plain enchanting.What a sweet, simple idea and creative means of sending postcards and thank yous. After all, colouring the images before posting the cards proves and shows the thought, time and effort gone into the messages being given. Real lovely little book of post cards and genius idea.Plus, super fast delivery, arrived well packaged and in perfect condition. Couldn't ask for more.

I love these postcards and the secret garden ones. I found artist crayons to be better than felt tips but also nice with gel, metal or glitter pens. Felt tip pens tend to leak and spread on the picture. My daughter asked me why I got the postcards and I told her to send to friends or family to let them know I was thinking of them or just to give a message. My daughter commented it is easier to send an email to tell someone you are thinking of them. I explained that the person receiving the postcard would appreciate more and it would mean more to them due to the effort of colouring the picture in as they would realise a lot of thought and love went into it. So far I have done four of them and each of them has made the recipients happy. One of the details on the pictures is a little smaller than the bigger book such as the bird and mouse on the gates with two gargoyles on. However on the gate I did in gold glitter pen and the effect is stunning. On the boat with in a circle I found doing the sales in glitter gold's orange and greens more effective than just greens on their own and stand out more in glitter compared to crayons. Also put the postcard in an envelope when sending it then you prevents the post office stamp over them. I would recommend either buying two of these one for practice. One thing more at free postage and the postcards on Amazon are £6.28 this is cheaper than the £9.00 from certain high street shops.

High quality postcards. I enjoy adult colouring and the small pictures add to the challenge. Mostly used felt tip fine liner pens. Helped pass a day or two during the lockdown and sent to loved ones during this time to cheer them up.

The pictures are lovely but they are small so require a deal of precision so possibly not suitable for all children. Otherwise they are great. Will continue to colour them in and send out.

Bought as a gift. Really lovely prints on quality card.

I'm about a third of the way through using this product. It's new to me in postcard format and I love it. It is extremely detailed and not for the faint-hearted. I love the pictures and the thickness of the pages. Each page is printed as a postcard on the back and can be used. The card colour is "off-white" and it's almost cardboard which means you can use a very sharp pencil to get into the small spaces. Would recommend.

I bought these to colour in and although they are beautiful, the designs are quite small so it can be difficult to colour them right

This is a great alternative to the books. My bestie in Canada and I have both bought a copy and are sending the postcards to each other. Feels a bit more purposeful to colour a postcard, plus you know how much time and effort and love has gone into each one. I think this is a great and well worth product. Fast delivery and reasonably priced.

Eu acho que o papel é bom para pintar com aquarela, mas os desenhos ficaram muito pequenos em forma de cartão postal, que é exatamente o tamanho do livrinho.

The pictures are way too small. And i tried to remove the cards from the book and every card had glue on the side. I could not remove it, so this item dissapoints me.

By mistake wrong packet was returned to pick-up man.

Lovely postcards to colour. I really love the beautifully drawn pictures. The paper makes my gel pens colours really vibrant. If you love gardens and fantasy you will love this little book. I have no hesitation recommending this lovely book. It arrived in excellent condition and before the estimated time.

The media could not be loaded. He comprado varios libros de postcards, y de esta misma ilustradora tengo varios y a mi parecer esta es la peor edición que han hecho. La primera diferencia es el tamaño que es de 16.5x12cm (es distinto de otros postcard de Johanna Basford). Otra gran diferencia y muy importante es que las hay algunas ilustraciones con los detalles muy pequeños por lo que son difíciles de colorear, tienes que hacerlo con fineliner y si tienes problemas de visión no te lo recomiendo. Yo lo compré para tenerlo como libro de colorear porque me gusta mucho la ilustradora y tengo casi todo de ella y con esta edición tengo sentimientos encontrados... me gusta, pero... es que hay algunas muy pequeñas!! No se... tanto para usar como postal o para libro de colorear sigo viendo los mismos inconvenientes. Mirar el vídeo y las fotos y decidir vosotros, yo en esta ocasión no se a quien si o a quien no "recomendar?"
