Make your own Angel card

 This next week or so I'll be updating my blog daily with all the work I've not shared yet!

Let's kick off with 2021's Christmas card... a make-your-own angel.





I love doing pop-up or make-your-own cards - they elevate a simple card into something between a card and a gift, and give little hands (or larger ones!) something to do over the Christmas period.

Book Cover: Get Over Yourself

Hello my lovely loves!

It's finally time for me to show you the book cover I worked on with poet extraordinaire, Leanne Moden. She recently debuted her show at the Edinburgh Fringe, and soon her book, Get Over Yourself, will be out with Burning Eye Books!

Music and Lyrics

Hello my lovely loves,

I wanted to show you a little commission I took on to create a typographic print of lyrics as a Christmas present. It was for a fellow Spoonie, so that's always a lovely thing.
From sketch to completion, here's some lyrics of Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen.

Build-your-own Christmas cards!

Hello my lovely loves!

It's that time again! And this year I'm particularly proud of my cards, because I've created a card/craft kit hybrid. I always struggle if either I want to give a gift but can't afford it, if someone is in that grey area between card or gift recipient, or if they live abroad and sending a full gift is hella expensive.
So... craft kit cards!

The two designs allow you to send a flat A5 card to your recipient, and then they're able to cut out and create 3D models of either a gingerbread house or a Christmassy carousel!

The inside of the cards have instructions (and directions to find YouTube tutorials I've created, if preferred) and decorated space for your message.

The back of the card is also a backdrop to your little models - and making it won't destroy your message!

Cards are available on my Etsy shop here, and you can check out the video tutorials here (gingerbread house) and here (carousel).

The cards are available in singles, six packs and ten packs, but the gingerbread house ones are more limited than the carousel so they're not available in multipacks on their own, only in mixed design packs contains both designs.

As ever, 10% of the profits of the cards will be going to Crisis at Christmas, to give much needed support to the homeless.

I hope you like them as much as I do!
