Adult Coloring Belles and Blossoms Coloring Book (Adult Coloring Books: Flowers & Plants)

The media could not be loaded.  “Belles and Blossoms” is the first coloring book I have by Krisa Bousquet. The designs are quite lovely with beautiful young women surrounded by lots and lots of flowers. I found that the designs are extremely detailed and have many intricate and small areas to color. While they will be a challenge to color, I found that I enjoyed my first project and have already started my next one.The designs have a swirling motion to them with layers and layers of detail. I used a variety of coloring pencils and ultra-fine markers to color all the tiny parts. I usually prefer a blank background for my project and I was really pleased with how my first one turned out utilizing the white space.This is what I found in going through this coloring book:31 Detailed and Intricate Designs featuring women and flowersPrinted on one side of white pagePage is white, slightly rough, and perforatedGlue BoundDesigns stop before the perforationAlcohol and water based markers bleed through to some degreeGel pens and India ink pens leave shadows of color on the back of the pageColoring pencils work well with this standard Creative Haven paper. Soft lead lays down good color, layers and blends well. Hard lead pencils leave dents on the back of the page.In order to preserve the rest of the book, I will either use a blotter page below the page I am working on or I will remove the page at the perforations before coloring.

Fun and relaxing.

Oh, Boy! If you like lovely women coloring books as much as I do, you are gonna be very excited with this book. Every page has a very lovely woman on it. Each page has a boutifull floral frame as well as flowers in the womens clothes and hair.The cover is a great indicator of what's inside the book. There are colored pictures on the inside of both the front and back covers, so beautiful, as an example of coloring combination choices. Each of the pages has been perforated for easy removal. The paper is bright white and of a decent thickness. This is a Creative Haven book, so it is the same paper as the other Creative Haven books.This is a book for the detail loving colorers. Every page is repleat full of flowers in various sizes. Some have the flowers framing the womans face, others have them framing the entire woman. The backgrounds are very full, so there is very little white left to finish. Each woman is wearing a full length dress and most of those are covered in florals. A couple of the women have hair with more flowers showing than hair! There is not one picture that isn't interesting. Women holding bouquets, walking through fields of flowers, even one sitting by a tree reading.I have not had the time to color one of the pictures yet, but I will add any that I do complete.Let me reassure you. You will not find a single picture that you are not dying to color right this minute. I personally love coloring flowers, green leaves, and trees. AND, this book also has all of these.Thanx, Mindy

Where some of Creative Haven's books are very simple designs, Belles and Blossoms is the most complicated and elaborate book I have seen in the range. While beautiful, the artwork was far too complex for me to want to colour more than one or two of the pages, so I gifted the book to somebody else with better eyesight and only kept a few pages for myself. Each page depicts a young woman in various poses, surrounded by a plethora of blossoms and foliage. You will need fineliners or very sharp pencils to be able to colour the tiny spaces in the designs, and I hope you have a lot of patience. As with all of Creative Haven's books, the pages are single-sided and perforated so you can easily remove them from the book for colouring or display, which given the level of difficulty in these pages is a very good thing - you're going to want to be able to get at the page from all angles to be able to colour such complicated designs.

This is marketed as an adult coloring book but I buy Creative Haven coloring books for a group activity for when I watch my 4 and 7 year old nieces. Each page is detailed enough to hold an adult's attention, but the small designs combine into larger elements so the kids can each color at their own level. Like all the books in this series, the book has nice thick paper on perforated pages so we can all pick designs from the same book and color together. The paper isn't quite thick enough to prevent bleed when the kids use markers, but with a lighter (read: adult) touch it might not be a problem.I have 3 Creative Haven books at this point, this is the clear favorite for the girls; they love the flowers and pretty dresses

worth the wait, I just got my coloring book the other day and It is by far one of the prettiest coloring books I have ever seen, I truly love it, every page has such wonderful detail, and every belle, or girl is absolutely beautiful. I love it. it is probably my favorite coloring book, I say that about all of them but to be honest this is MY FAVORITE COLORING BOOK. NOT ONE PAGE IS UGLY. sometimes you get a coloring book and maybe one or two pages the girl is not pretty this book will blow your mind, because every page and every girl is really beautiful. if there was a coloring book to find or to buy this would be the book to buy is bright and cheery and yes beautiful.. filled with blossoms and beauty you really can't beat it... so if its for a child they will adore it. whom ever did the illustrations should keep drawing outstanding in every sense of the word. beautiful..

Belíssimo!!

My wife loves these books, keeps her occupied for hours.

This really does help my mind slow down. During the lockdown where the line between work and R&R has massively blurred this is honestly helping me slow my racing mond down and settle somewhat the anxiety that can pop up.

jolies femmes dans des poses lascives ou coquettes, avec des dessins d'un 1er abord assez épurés dans les personnages en eux mêmesMais il vous faudra de la patience pour colorier tout ces Doodle de fleurs.Habits,cheveux,décors il y a de quoi vous enivrer et faire marcher votre imagination.Attention cependant à ceux et celles qui n'aiment pas trop la nature car toutes ces "belles" sont entourées de fleurs et verdure la plupart 🙂.Un dessin par page pour les adeptes des feutres et marqueurs,pour ma part ce sont les crayons de couleur Marco raffiné et prismacolor

Great pictures to colour and delivery was prompt
