oh I LOVED that book and the movie too! I can almost hear the music....
My favorite memory is watching the movie with my daughter when she was very small- I remember thinking that in every life, there is a secret garden- the secret is to figure out what kind of key to look for...

This looks fantastic - great use of textures especially. The only critique is that I personally would have painted in a drop shadow underneath everything just to add a little depth.
I love the writing on the paper especially

Thank you! And I agree, those handwriting brushes are lovely!
You know, I sat there fiddling with the shadows on this forever! In my last manip I got a little carried away with the shadows, and everything looked like it was floating, so this time I was very careful to keep the shadows small... but now that I look at it again, I think you're right, they're TOO small!
