A while ago, Janine of Uppercase contacted me about contributing a picture and a brief note about Camilla Engman for a book they were producing. So I did, and then I forgot all about it.
A few days ago I heard that the book was already released and I was saving up to buy a copy sometime in January. As luck would have it, the very next day after my birthday the postman buzzed my door and handed me a package that made me stop in my tracks. It’s the Suitcase Series featuring Camilla Engman that I was lusting after! I was trying to remember if I had bought it pre-launch, but then I remembered – I might have a little piece in there. Suffice to say, this little surprise package sweetened up my birthday week!
The book is beautiful. The paper, the cuts, the inserts, the postcards, a booklet about Morran, and a screenprint from Camilla. Janine and her team at Uppercase did a fantastic job with the project. Flipping through the whole book was quite an experience – I appreciated all the little nuances and the clever layouts; the illustration and the fun energy throughout. I love the thick rubber band that held everything together, because the book is bursting with lovely surprises inside! This is very much a collectors item if you love Camilla and of course, Morran the dog.
So here’s some more of the pages of the book… And if you’d like to flip through more, head over to Uppercase!
{Thanks so much Janine for making me a part of the project!}
