O Little Town

I haven't had much time lately for drawing or designing, but I was able to put this little collection together just in time for Christmas.  Here are some fun mock-ups I made using the patterns from the collection.  The wintry palette and snowflakes make me want to hunker down with a cup of hot cocoa and a cozy blanket, put the Netflix yule log on, and get in lots of snuggle time.  :)  Wishing all of my friends and family near and far a very Merry Christmas...and a HUGE THANK YOU for all of your encouragement and support!  xoxo 

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

I am so EXCITED to introduce my second collection with Benartex!  This is Merry Little Christmas!  I think I am FINALLY in the Christmas mood!  You can view the entire collection HERE.  I am so thrilled with how the collection turned out and I hope you love it too!

Easing my way into colder weather with a snowdrop...

Well...with today's temps in the 40s, a bitter wind, and overcast skies, I suppose I need to accept that winter is fast approaching.  EEK...that four letter word "SNOW" just popped into my head.  Nope...not ready for that!  At this point I am just trying to trick myself into accepting the inevitable.  And, since I draw so much inspiration from nature, the SNOWdrop flower just naturally came to mind. It was really just my override feature kicking into gear!  :)  Fortunately, I really was inspired to create this lovely collection that I named Fiona.  I thought a cool (winter) palette would really make this collection come to life. At least I am trying to accept the change of seasons. Happy Saturday everyone!  :)
