Painted Christmas Cards

Inspired by a post from Peony and Parakeet (http://www.peonyandparakeet.com/quick-gelli-christmas-cards/), I thought that I would like to make some Christmas cards. I used a combination of gouache, watercolours, inks, and pen. I then uploaded to Paint.net, tweaked them with brightness levels. The next step will be to print them off, mount on cardstock, and send off! To me, they have a vintagey feel, and I love the bright colours. Hoping that you are all getting into the Christmas mood!

The postcards have started arriving from Hanna's annual swap (www.ihanna.nu). I am always interested in how others express their creativity. What images resonate, the colours one chooses, style, design, techniques. It is a like a little window of insight into the creative process of another artist and it feels like we are all connected in this creative journey that we are on. Thank you, ladies!
