packages, boxes and bags

 

Finally, I'm just about ready for Christmas. Here are some of my handmade papers and things. If only I had time to make all of the wrapping papers I have swirling in my mind.

 

Merry Christmas!

more african inspired sketches

I am still spending my free time sketching whimsical African ladies.

 

 

I will probably draw them digitally soon, maybe to create some card sets. I'm not too sure, but they are making me very happy.

 

On to Christmas shopping, baking, and wrapping! 

African Lady

 

 My heart is in Africa, and these days, Africa is calling my name very loudly. I've been doodling lots of African style ladies, but I'm really happy with this one. I haven't decided yet what to do with her. For now, I just enjoy looking at her.

 

 

Garlic Sprouts

little reindeers

One of my favorite parts of Christmas is making my own wrapping paper.

I cut out a little Styrofoam reindeer stamp, and then added the fine details with a marker.

 

Now, I just need to carve out a little more time to make some more papers. And wait for it to warm up so we can head out to get a tree.

What holiday creations are you up to?
