My hope in life is to contribute to peace and beauty in the world. I’m taking that very literally this Christmas/Holiday season. I’m individually painting & illustrating my cards. Here is the first set of 10.

peace-1
peace-2
peace-3
peace-4
peace-5
peace-6
peace-7
peace-8
peace-9
peace-10

I made a stencil for the large paisley and for the word Peace and then I played with Derwent Inktense watercolor pencils, Ranger Distress Markers, some random gel pens and my Pigma Micron pens in 005, 01, and 03 of course they are all the blues. Making peace and beauty out of the blues. And I used my Pelikan Opaque Watercolors for the backgrounds. Each card is Zentangled and doodled and signed by me.This really fits nicely with the Diva’s Zentangle challenge #297: Give the Gift of Zentangle. For more tangled holiday fun check her out at

The quote on the inside of my cards is

Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.                                                                                                             Melody Beattie

Peace.

I have uploaded one of the cards to Fine Art America if you want to purchase a set to use for your Christmas cards.

Here is my process for my Christmas/Hanukkah/Solstice/Kwanza cards and one finished sample. Needless to say I won’t be sending out tons of cards. At least not individually painted ones. I thought that hand painted cards would be more personal than a commercial card with a sanitized family update.

I wish you peace in this holiday season. Let’s all celebrate!

Christmas card pocket

I used the Christmas card that I ordered from Fine Art America (click on picture to order your own!) to make a pocket to hold pictures, notes, and ephemera from the week of Dec. 15-21. I hope you enjoy what ever holiday you are celebrating. I am glad that the sun is coming back around our way! Happy Solstice and Merry Christmas!
