Hope has a new home!

I sold My AB "Hope never dies" today.  I'm so excited this made my week, probably my month! 
A co-worker of mine purchased it as a gift for her partner- It's a birthday present. The person who is receiving it is a collector of artists books!  I am so delighted, because I know this piece is now going to be in a good home.  
I had  put up some photos last year of this book when I finished it- right before the opening of the Book Arts Show at the Chaffee.... but some of my online artist friends wanted to see pix- hence this post.
I actually scanned the whole thing last night- I think I forgot to do the back cover.  Here it is SCANNED: Hope never dies- Altered Book
