Lately I've been foraging, trimming and sorting thousands of pages to make up another edition of my little pocket and bigger journey books. These little books are made with so much love. Each is filled with sixty-five different papers foraged papers from all over the world. Tucked in between them are many different envelopes and pockets, for little treasures to be saved forever in. If you would like one to call your own, they are up for sale in my shop now. They usually don't last long, but I should be making another edition up in the summer or fall as well.
All books are now sold out, but please send me a note if you'd like to order one when I make another edition.
Which colour would you choose? In the past the robins egg and clover green have been the most popular, but so far this time by far the cherry and cream soda have been the favourites - these sorts of things are always interesting to me!
And speaking of being made with so much love, Adelaide got her hands on a little clementine pocket book and added some of her drawings to the inside front cover. To me, it is the most beautiful book of them all, but obviously it is not for sale! I would like to send it out to someone special, so if you would like it, please leave a comment and I will randomly select a winner in a week or so.
And the winner, chosen by number randomizer is:
no. 203: hoburger
hoburger said: I think my favorite is the cream soda. it is so bright and cheerful! I would love a giveaway pocketbook thanks adelaide! :)
Thank you to everyone who replied for this giveaway. I will be having more giveaways in the near future, so keep in touch!

Wow! All the colors look equally yummy it is really difficult to choose a fave! >.<
Charlene
so gorgeous, as usual :)
Just darling. I'd love this personalized treasure!
these books are lovely, I'm sure my lovelies would want to add their art too!
So so sweet! Pockets for treasure sounds right up my alley. Yay!
Sharilyn your goods are always pleasing to the eye and the spirit. I would love to hold one of your creations in my hands, especially one with Adelaides touch.
As for colours I love them all individually and as a whole, perhaps you could sell a special boxed set?
Thanks for your generosity.
Kris
i'd love a little notebook in a fun color like 'clementine'! what great color names. fun!
That's adorable! I would love a chance to win it.
I personally love Robin's Egg, Mint, and Coffee! I also love the color trends you shared.
mint please!
these are beautiful books. cream soda is also my favorite color but frosting is sweet too.
Oh now that is a beautiful book indeed! I wish mine had a few of Adelaides doodles!
Gorgeous. Love the mint!
How sweet!
I'd love to own some original Adelaide scribbles. xo
i would love a book with addie's scribbles :)
i love these books and with a personalized scribble! priceless!
sharilyn, that cream soda is delightful. such a pretty pink.
one time, mister henry (around age 3) found a tube of lipstick and painted the foot board of my bed with it. my unfinished wood frame was just *covered* in my new stick of overpriced lipstick.
at the time, i thought i was going to have a heart attack, but now the whole thing just makes for a sweet memory!
Oooo I'd love it. My Lillie would love to add her drawings next to it.
Your books are so beautiful.
Clementine - even the name is fabulous. Although I'm very partial to cream soda as well. They look fabulous.
so sweet! i would love an adelaide original!
Thanks for sharing a part of your business and life on this blog. It's very inspiring.
my eyes naturally perk up at the cream soda and robins egg.
Thank you for sharing. These books are so lovely!
So sweet- I was surprised to find how excited I am when my (2-year-old) son grabs my sketchbook and starts drawing. These intentional little marks are so beautiful!
I like the clementine and mint, but all of them are nice!
I would love one, little kid scribbles are my favorite!
The books look great. And I still have a few books that I took a crayon to as a child...
I would love to have a nice notebook to keep track of my special notes. I love all of the colors!
you are amazing!! i don't know where you find the time, but i'm so glad you do! i love the little scribbles--you guys make a great team! ;)
oh I would love it!! I love little scribbles - can see quite a few from where I sit at the computer right now :)
love all the colors too - mint and clementine would be my picks.
sign me up. Funny thing is I usually don't go for orange but when I looked at your colour swatch my eyes went straight to 'clementine', then I scrolled down and saw your give away!
I am also glad to see in your shop that your pine cone posters are coming soon. I have been waiting to get my hands on one for awhile now.
keep up the great work
xo
i was going to say clementine was my favorite color
So sweet. Your books are very cute!
too cute! i think i'll order one in clover!
how darling are these. pick me:)
oh yes, I'd love to call it my own
Thanks for the chance to win! Love all the colors! Can't pick a favorite! :) Have a fabulous day!
i'm crossing my fingers!
Beautiful books, would love to win one! Thanks.
lovely! count me in for a chance to win!
What a great idea for a non-saleable item! And how precious. I personally like the robin's egg blue, and also the cherry, which I think looks like poppy red (but maybe it's just my browser). New colors? I didn't see any yellow...
I love everything you create! I would probably choose coffee. :)
Katie Stoker
coffe! coffe! coffe! love it, but even more the one with your dauther, in fact you could put a little hand print of your angel in each book that will be crazy cute !.
I love to come by and see what you are up to. I miss my kiddos being the age your daughter is. Such a fun time to be with them!
As it happens, Clementine is my favorite! AND, as the mama of a just-turned-4 year old, Adelaide's drawings would only enhance the charm for me!
oh how lovely!!! love the color!
These books are so clever! Love all the colors too!
LOL! I would love Adelaide's autograph.. ^^
I adore your work and your lovely daughter. Your blog is definitely one of my favorite reads. Thanks for the giveaway - I would definitely love one of your pocket books. :)
Huzzah! I would love an Adelaide-autographed book :)
i would love to win that one with addie's addition to it. beautiful and sweet. i can appreciate how much work you put into these. thank you for having this giveaway!
:)
these are darling.
what is the difference between the pocket and journey books?
Love it! and the clementine would be my colour choice with or without the lovely scribbles.
I think it is gorgeous! Thanks for inspiring us all.
I'd love a book with an Addie autograph included ; )
this is a wonderful chance!! I always adore your books and been following you and adelaide's story, I'll be thrilled to win this!!
Thank you!
gorgeous! i love your stuff!!! x
I love everything that you do :D I hope I could win this book !
Who wouldn't want one signed by cutie Adelaide!
so cute! that thing about the colours is really interesting:) I find myself buying things in robins egg, or mint very often, and it is really weird since I don't think these are my favorite colours :) but I guess what we do unintentionally speaks louder :)
I'd love to win this little book!
Ooh an autographed edition ;)
What a sweet idea, I love the clementine! That sleeping baby (and puss) yesterday was oh so gorgeous. I wanted to snuggle her up myslef. Thanks for the gorgeousness and inspiration.
Ah, she discovered the joy of books. If she's anything like my two little girls it won't be long before she feels the pressing need to own a notebook of her own for drawing and writing 'all that's so important'.. :)
In the mean time my 3 year old could put the notebook to good use...
I got to say: they are very very very cute! I'll charge my credit card and buy them!
All the colours are beautiful and I can see your daughter already shows artistic temperament :)
Montse PB
Beautiful! Lots of happy accidents waiting to happen when you give your daughter her own little work table :)
hi sharilyn! i've loved your books for years ... would love to have one that was loved on by your addie! :D so precious!
oh i would love to have that special notebook! :) love, sofia *
I think cherry's my favorite at the moment, but ANY color would look great on these lovely books (I wouldn't mind seeing a charcoal gray or mossy/lime green) :)
oh then my daughter can add some of her drawings too!
oh wow, we don't have kids and totally miss out on kid art. i would love to win. i love the pocket books and love all the colors.
How lovely your pocket books are. Truly exceptional.
A perfect finish to a lovely item :)
My favorite colors are robin's egg, frosting, cream soda, and steel blue! These are beautiful and I can't wait to get one!
even more adorable with her drawings in it! ;)
crossing my fingers...
They are beautiful and I love that they were a combined effort (favorite part of all). All the colors are wonderful but I'll agree the cream soda is my favorite too. Just looking at it makes me happy :) Inspiration in a book.
love the book.
Thanks for the giveaway!
Her scribbles make the book much more special. The books are so beautifully made! Keep up the great work!
I'd love it, jacob could add some of his scribbles too - once he is big enough to hold a crayon...
oh wow, with an original Adelaide drawing in the front too!
Count me in.
Those books are great- I'd probably choose robin's egg blue because I pretty much always choose robin's egg blue... My address file arrived this week and I love, love, love it!
seriously who wouldn't want a clementine one? Love reading your blog!
Ohhhhhhhhh I would love to have one in clementaine :)
Hugsss
How sweet! My little neice does the same thing to my sister's important papers, I always like to think the phone company and insurance people get a special treat when they receive the bills!
Clementine is my favorite color too!
Aww! Putting my name in the hat..
:)
addie is so cute,, thank for the giveaway..
What a special little book! I would love the chance to win!

how wonderful! i would love to win.

Adelaide's drawings makes it extra special indeed! You are always so generous with your beautiful creations, thank you. Wishing you a marvelous weekend!

Dear Sharilyn,
You know I adore your works and now with Sweet Miss A's dooddle, double the desire goes ;-) I keep my fingers crossed!
Thank you for sharing.
I think you should keep it for yourself, but if you REALLY want to give it away, throw my name into the hat please!
I'd be delighted to win this notebook!
And it would go to a good home:) I carry a notebook constantly and would love, love a lovely, charming and fun one such as this.
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to have that little book, maybe your daughter could make a whole page????
I just love the cream soda.
My human mom would love the book...complete with directions drawn it!
Tail Wags to All.
~Moose

oooh, another beautiful creation. please put my name in...
srichards at group1201 dot com.
fingers crossed !
this is perfect for a tiny paper and random stuff collector like myself. Love the concept.
that was very sweet of Adelaide!
My favorite is the mint color but they're all so eautiful
Beautiful.
Mmm... steel blue - perfect!
i would love to have it and let my daughter add her work to it! thank you~
Love all of them. My favorites are steel blue and robins egg.
oooh, i love the clover & clementine! so cheery ;)
Drawings by little ones are so special. I value the drawings my nieces create for me. And I love books.
It looks like she was mapping out her own route around the city! Love it!
Heather
Your products look like they are made with so much love. I love your idea using paper from all over the world for your gorgeous work.
A mama and Adelaide collaboration!! I'd be so honored to have this lovely little book!
I love the clementine color...and adelaide's contribution! so lovely!
Your pocket books are amazing -- I'd sort of like to get one in every color!
I would love a bright red pocket book to keep in my pocket.
Frosting....Be still my heart!
Oh my . . . a chance to win? I would love to have one of your pocket books . . . especially with Addie's drawings! :)
OH I know that there are many special someones out there, but if your book lands in our home, then MY own little special Addy (short for Addison, 1 yr old) can add her little marks to YOUR special Addie's marks, and we would give your book MUCH love and care! I hope you choose us for your book's new home!
-shandis and addy :o)
I'd have a hard time picking between the clover, steel blue and coffee! such beautiful colors.
My mother used to write our name and the date inside any book that we scribbled in. (I'm sure we still were punished for it, but now, all I remember is that there's a red Webster's dictionary with my "drawings" and name inside it!)
I love pretty papers! This would be perfect as a journal.
Those are too cool! I love the colors.
Clementine is the color I would pick – but autographed by Adelaide would make it all the better!!
very cool!
Oh, me me me! :) Fabulous!
ooo nice color!!!
i love all the colors
keep up the good work
Oh, I would love that treasure!
I just bought one from your shop for my little doodler. she might want two, though. ;) adelaide is too cute!
Mint, but would love the custom clementine version :)
So pretty and special!
hi sharilyn! oh i love them all - it would be so wonderful to have one of each color :) i think it's so interesting too to see what colors are most popular. i love all the colors you have but ended up choosing the cherry one because i already have other notebooks in the other colors i was considering (robins egg and steel blue). i think some sort of yellow would be really cute too. (oh, and please don't enter me in the giveaway, since i've won something from you already!)
I was just going to say that clementine would be my color of choice. I'd love to have the one autographed by Adelaide.
How sweet she is, obviously a future artiste :)
i would love the clementine with some art added. thanks for offering it.
The Clementine book looks especially sweet! What care she took to make her mark on the book! :o)
I would be honored to have some of Adelaide's drawings in that little book. Count me in! I love that you set up an art table for her. We have a little one for our kids, too. It works out really well.
Very sweet of Adelaide. I would love it. I have just recently been introduced to your work and I truly love it.
Love it. You should hear my 20-month old daughter say "clementine".
how wonderful for you to give away one of your lovelies :). thank you!
Hello Sharilyn, my name is Sharolyn and I love to check in and be inspired by your beautiful things and creative life with Addie, Elliott and Charles from Brisbane in Australia.
This pocket book would be perfect for a student I tutor! He's doing extra work for class so he won't be left behind as his friends move on to 2nd grade. He's such a sweetheart. He'd totally make good use of it.
I want a beautiful book with your little girl's drawings!
The look beautiful. I would love to win
this is too cute! can i still be included in this giveaway?
oh my.. there's so many here already! :)

Hello. I would love to win this. I love the things you make, My favourite colour choice would be 'mint' although clementine is very lovely too. x
I would pick "Frosting"
YUM!!!!
sweet! I love little kids' drawings :)
robin's egg and coffee are my favourite of the colours you have.
all of the colors are beautiful! I don't have a favorite color, instead my favorite thing about color is their interaction with one another.
Adelaide is like a fairy! This one is the sweetest.
How sweet that Adelaide has coloured in the book - I love that! I would also love to own it and add my own colouring to it too!
Thanks! The pocket books look so yummy!!
I love your pocket books! I would love to have one...Thank you for doing this!
how nice of you to have another giveaway. i would love to have one.
elizabeth

If yes,, I'd love one.
Jennifer in Colorado
Oh my goodness. Of course you think it is the most beautiful. My most favorite treasures are drawings by little ones. My two passions are children and art. This is the first time I am commenting on here but I love following your blog and adore your ideas and beautiful life with little Adelaide... so precious. Thanks for putting a little sunshine in my day when I look at your blog. You are VERY inspiring. Thank you.
<3 Carly
So very very sweet. Would love to own one of your books.
What beautiful books. Please put my name in the hat. I think the robins egg is a beautiful colour.
lucky me, my favorite is the clementine! pick me, please! hip.umma A gmail
I think mint and clover are my favorite colors but clementine would be just as fine!
What an artiste little addie is! Beautiful.
Too sweet - soon you'll be doing as we do and framing so many childrens drawings - they're all so precious.
I love them all but maybe clover is my favorite.
You are magical. Thank you for sharing. ^_^
I would love the autographed copy from your lovely daughter.
