Let it Snow Let it Snow!

Hello all, it seems like it is snowing here in the studio, but really it is just me getting geared up for Christmas! I have been thinking about all the things the boys and I will do in the upcoming weeks and I am getting excited. My husband has not become fond of the Holiday due to it's commercialism but I always love it because it gives me a chance to decorate and create more. This design I did is a mix medium, the snowman is painted and his scarf, present, hat, nose and border are all fabric. Some of these fabrics are vintage.I used to do this allot quite a few years ago when I worked in a print studio in NYC. They would sell like crazy and now that I do it for licensing it's less so, but people still like the look. I find it fun to mix the two mediums and it give me a chance to play around some. I think this would be great on a card or giftbag, I am sure that will be the case sooner or later. I was playing around on the web yesterday and found this placemat I did awhile back, and this tablecolth

on Fred Meyer's flyer. I think I posted back in Sept the goodies that came to me that are now in these stores.

Here is the box I recieved awhile back!

I always like getting artist samples, but then I have the problem of where to put it all! I am thinking I should do a give away to get rid of the clutter! I have soo many boxes of Xmas cards and products that I think I will have to post a giveaway asap! I will keep you posted!
In the meantime I have to work on some Easter designs if you can believe it.

So back to making coffee and painting!
