Happy December to you!

It's that beautiful time of year....Christmas is coming and Hanukkah too.  All the lovely holidays.
We just got a ton of snow here in Eastern Washington.  It's like a winter wonderland.  We got a snow blower just in time.
Things are feeling much more calm for me....so thankful for that.
I love peace and tranquility.

The above calendar is great for your Ipad, tablet or phone.  Click here for the download.

This is the desktop version.... it comes from my own retro style artwork. 
I tried  some unusual colors.

--------------------------------------------------------------
I made a new christmas collage sheet called Christmas is...
I hand drew all these on procreate....some of my process videos are on my instagram.

You can print them off and use them over and over. Print these on photo paper, sticker paper or matte presentation paper for best results.

This is a sheet with super cute characters: a Santa girl with her cat, Frosty the snowman, candy cane tree, retro angel, stocking, happy tree, candles, gingerbread man, baby its cold outside snowman, lil ornament, fun sayings and words.

I made them into fun ornaments

Sweet Santa girl and her kitty

my favorite ... the snowman with candy cane tree...

Retro Angel...

Happy tree..


I have made a fun free video on how to make them into ornaments....the example is an easter collage sheet of mine , but the tips are the same 

Supplies you may need are: scraps of cardboard (from a box), glue stick, scissors, glue that dries clear, trims and glitter.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can print these however many times you like and use them for years.
I drew all kinds of shapes and sizes.

I printed mine on sticker paper and cut them out.

Then I started wrapping and used the gift tags ....peeled off the sticker back and all done.

They are fine on regular card stock too. I keep my gift tags in a little box on the table when wrapping.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These are some other pieces I have been working on...
Snow miser and heat miser from "The year without a Santa Claus".  
I love that show when I was a little kid.
They cracked me up!  
I loved how they would fight until mother nature stepped in...lol.

This is part of my candles and my snowman.... I took classes on procreate on skillshare and have really learned alot.  I have never had an Ipad before.  I have had a lot of adobe illustrator though.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just made another rug...a snowman and tree.
I have the rug tufting gun to do it...look on Amazon for the supplies or Youtube to see people's videos.

You put your fabric on a frame and draw the design...and get your yarn out and rewind it into a cake ball.

Here is mine next to selina's one.... she made her cat Midnight. See the yarn balls?

After completing the design you have to glue it.

I add a nonskid backing and shave it.
Crazy huh?
It's so much fun.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then I made...
I hand painted some ornaments....
they are in my etsy shop now.  If they sell out I will make more.

Rudolph...



These are plastic so they won't break.
---------------------------------------------------------
Lil Davy is wishing you a wonderful holiday season...

Trix says to be careful when driving in the snow.

I'm wishing you JOY!
