Etsy Review:

Gorgeous journal, I’m over the moon! The packaging was done with so much care and the paper is of a very thick and high quality. Love the deckled edges too. The paper lays completely flat so it’s very easy to work on. And the cover is so pretty with the grayish/ light blue on the inside. I love that a part of the price is going to charity too ❤️. Truly an unique piece of art and will be very well loved! Thank you!

Etsy review:

Wow words can't describe how gorgeous this Journal is. I have high end (LV, CC, Hermes..etc) and not one holds a candle to this gorgeous Journal. As soon as you pick it up you can feel the luxury. The inside is finished with a beautiful baby blue suede. She shipped it asap and I couldn't be more happy. I ordered place my second order. SOOOO IMPRESSED!!!

Etsy review:

I would give this shop 10 stars if I could! I placed a very specific, custom order for my husband for Christmas..she was not only willing to customize, but more than happy to do it..she was so easy to work with, and when the finished handmade book showed up at my house.. I was blown away by the detail, and quality of her work, within was a personal hand written note. I will definitely be back to order from this shop, and highly recommend if you want quality... you order from her as well! 10 STARS!!!!

(Text message received from a client after receiving my thank you card):

“Amongst all those political push cards, who still sends personal letters? Such a beautiful peacock (referring to the watercolor notecard created by anne-marie-designs)! Of course. Penmanship from an earlier time. Not surprising that Anne-Marie encourages people to write on her art. Your strokes are art in and of themselves. So nice to hear from you and I am anxious to buy someone that purse I really love. Take Care!

Etsy review:

If you are looking for the highest quality, unique design and most helpful artist, this is the place to

shop. The packaging ensured safe protection and delivery. This journal will be cherished forever as a special place to write thoughts of inspiration, record important events, and keep treasured pictures. I also purchased a beautiful purse from

her location in Canton, Texas. It is my go-to piece for practicality and a classic fashion statement.
