Adorable Penguin Trio

This picture is a coloured pencil drawing I did a few days ago. I think with a little adjustment it would make a great basis for some handmade Christmas cards. I don't generally think of Christmas till November after my daughter's birthday but usually end up finishing making cards and gifts on Christmas eve. Well, alright, Boxing Day when I visit relatives. So I'm starting early - for me that is :-).
There was a time I would be making Christmas cards all summer, but that was when I was demonstrating paper craft products. I also used to make them to sell but find that too time consuming these days.
I digress. Back to the picture, I think a little bit of glitter and maybe a snowflake frame would make this just right for the season.

What do you think? Does this get your creative juices flowing?

Happy Crafting

Janice.

During the last week of October, I will be exhibiting at the Gage Gallery, Kelham Island, Sheffield, with a good friend and fellow Artist Jeni Holness (Jeniveve).

It is a beautifully light, airy and spacious gallery with a slight industrial feel. Jeni and I will be filling it with an oasis of rich and vibrant colour from Felt to Glass, Paintings to Prints.

The hard part is letting people know when and where, so if you can help by sharing this post or following me on facebook and sharing from there, that would be fantastic!

If you can make it along that would be even better - please say hi, it's lovely to know this is read by more than just my family :-)

All the best, Janice x
