These are lovely, Emily. I really like your idea about putting the text in edging around the pages so that the images are not covered. I thing it is an interesting way to do it, maybe more engaging, and leaves your beautiful artwork undisturbed. You will know what works best for your heart as you put your book together. Enjoy the process!
The artwork is so intricate and beautiful that text may detract from the story. Borders sounds like a good idea.
