Each person will choose a mandala for colouring from my designs (http://www.atelierdefengshui.com/mandfc.htm). Then they will PM me with their choice and will also tell me how they plan to colour it, so I can print each one in the most suitable kind of paper.

All the mandalas will be in order and will have the name of the person to colour them written in pencil in the back. Please, unbind them to take yours to colour and then bind them again in the same order when you have finished.
The book will start its journey on Jan. 25th 2007. I have made the list so that it travels quickly. Please, don't keep it too long as there are people waiting for it. A good idea is to ask for the next participant’s address as soon as you get it. I hope you’ll enjoy the experience.

The bookcrossers in this ring are:

boirina, Portugal
GlitterLover, UK
ktwalker, UK
LiziG, UK <---- the book has been on its way here for months!
Twynnie, UK
jessibud, Canada
bookishbunny, South Carolina, USA
GorgeousGlo, California, USA
jianji, South Dakota, USA
boirina, Portugal

Finally the book started its journey on Friday Jan. 26th from the PO at Porto airport.

I love this book. Thanks so much for giving me an opportunity to dust off my colouring pencils and play!
I received the book about 4 days ago and have just finished my colouring.
I shall PM ktwalker now.
PS I have a good non-BX friend who lives in Porto. I must tell her about this Mandala. Maybe she will join BX.

arrived a couple of days ago.

sorry for late je, this was sent at the same time as a bunch of other stuff a few months ago but i must have forgotten to journal this one, i only spotted this now when i decided to check through my all books option on the bookshelf.

It seems that the book never reached LiziG and my PMs don't reach her either because I haven't got an answer... so I guess this bookring is stalled.

This is a question for the people who already coloured their mandalas. If I send them to you again are would you send them back to me after you colour them?

I haven't decided yet if I'll put together another book for the rest of participants or if I'll send them each their mandalas. I might ask them as well. :)

Please, PM me with your answer. Thanks!!!

Now that I have a new printer I've reprinted the mandalas and will be sent to each participant separately. They are leaving today, so you should get them in about a week.

Thanks for your patience!

My mandalas arrived today, I'm looking forward to colouring them! I'll try and get around to it this weekend, but I can't make any guarantees. Thanks for sending these out again boirina!

Arrived today! Again, only 4 days, Boirina! Amazing!

Thank you for these 2 lovely mandalas (and the bookplates; they are lovely!!) I hope to have them done by the weekend and will send them back to you as soon as they are completed. It's a pity that the entire book was stalled and I can't see the rest of them but I am pleased that you got creative in your problem-solving and that you found a way for me and the others to still participate! :-)

Thank you for these lovely mandelas, boirina! I also previously received a packet at the end of August. My apologies; I was unaware that we were supposed to journal!

I will color these at the end of September and send them back to you.

Thank you again!

It arrived today! This is a busy time of the year for me, but I will try to get on the coloring ASAP! Thanks!

Update: on its way back home on January 3, 2008.

A lovely idea - happy to do it again, I may not be so quick off the mark this time as house is packed up in stoprage so to speak.
Best wishes

my mandalas arrived today

I had fun painting my mandalas yesterday, it was a nice change to do something relaxing and creative for once! Boirina, these will be on their way back to you tomorrow along with the bookring I also have for you...

I have finished my 2 contributions and put them in the mail to you, Boirina, today.

Thanks so much, they were fun. I hope to be able to see them on your profile page one day soon!

RELEASE NOTES:

Mailing back to boirina via mail to Portugal

sent my mandala's back to boirina today

The results are already up here: http://www.atelierdefengshui.com/mcb5.htm

If your mandalas are missing I may not have received them, or they may be some mandalas I got with no name anywhere. I'll put them up sometime soon. Anyway... if your mandalas are missing, let me know. I hope you like the new labels. And if you'd like some labels only with your mandalas or in another language, just let me know. Hugs!

At long last I have finished and posted my completed replacement.
Best wishes
Thanks for the fun!
