Handmade Gifts...

Merry Christmas!

By the time this posts (love that scheduled posting feature!), my Mom should have received these new bands for the Stirling Cloche I knitted her for her birthday! This was her handmade Christmas gift this year...





And.... here is the latest collage based on the hymn,

This Is My Father's World



11"x14" Mixed Media Collage - Watercolor, Acrylic Ink, and Ephemera on Arches 140lb CP Paper

My Dad is getting a copy of this today, to go along with the other hymn collages that he has in his office. (I'm giving quite a few folks framed prints of some of my artwork this year... I love handmade gifts - they're so personal!) I have some exciting news about what will be happening with this original piece... but you're going to have to wait for it! I will let you know soon.... :)

I hope you're having a wonderful day,
celebrating the birth of our Savior - the greatest Gift of all!
Merry Christmas!
