happy hour doodles & giveaway

 

happy Hour Doodles is done and out for testing! This little font practically drew itself. The inspiration for this font came from a contest I entered on spoonflower.com. By the time I had drawn enough illustrations for the fabric I had over half a font done. So I finished it off.

And I did a matching postcard too.

Font will probably be for sale early 2013. If anyone needs it before that email me and I can get it to you sooner.

And now I am on to my yearly birthday card. I might make a couple and put them in my etsy store... more on that soon.

A Cat in Paris & Giveaway

 

loved the illustration style and use of color in this little animated film. And it happens in Paris, always a big bonus for me. This is streamable on Netflix.

In this Oscar-nominated animated feature, little Zoe discovers that her cat, Dino, moonlights as the companion to Nico, a burglar with a heart of gold. Soon Zoe is drawn into a thriller filled with gangsters, jewels and the rooftops of Paris. - Netflix

deck the halls & giveaway

 

After living here for 3 years I am trying something new for Christmas. I like the red balls on the topiary in the doorway.

And the lights on the lake windows are back. LOVE these and wished I had gotten to IKEA for more. I will hate the year that these start to burn out. I'd like to put them on a few windows upstairs too. They are a welcome addition to the dark of Winter and stay up an embarrassingly long time.

A REAL tree! Although this little Fraser fir looks so perfect it almost looks fake. It is about 4.5 feet and fits nicely on the buffet. That means no reorganizing of furniture to put up a tree. Also means no little hands can play with the ornaments. Gifts will continue to pile up around the tree. Still need to find some fabric and make a tree skirt. Next year I will double the lights on the tree.

All clear glass icicles, teardrops, some chandelier crystals and lights.

I think next year I may do all white wrapping, I like this look a lot. This year I tried out several different papers as I figure this out.

And I got an amaryllis before they were all gone. Used a little bit of leftover pine to fill the pot. I am happy with how this look is evolving. Next year it will look even better.

Hope you are all decorated and getting into the spirit.

Zinio is giving me 10 free digital magazine subscriptions. I am going to keep one and pass the rest on to you. They have lots and lots of magazines so I am sure you can find something you would like. You can take a peek here at www.zinio.com.
