The most comfortable shoes I own



May the spirit of the season warm your heart all year long.
I finally finished the drawing for our Christmas cards this year.  I decided to use kraft paper cards and envelopes for the finished design.  I have them all printed just finishing the hand coloring but hopefully in the mail tonight.

We did get the snow!  And so did most of the rest of the country.  The last two days were snow days (a teacher's favorite holiday).  I love snow days but wish I had been more productive.  It has been bitterly cold and all I really wanted to do was curl up on the couch.   I am hoping to finish my Christmas cards and get my tree up today.

  1. What a gorgeous boot this is. It gave me that 'oooh' feeling, which sounds a bit silly, but only when I see very charming things do I experience said feeling! I think it's really a lovely drawing :)

  2. OMGosh, love the details in the boot! We haven't gotten snow (southeast Michigan) yet, but have the hurricane high winds and chilly temperatures, so I know what you mean about wanting to stay inside and curl up.

  10. Hi Vicky;
    You left me a comment on my blog and asked me what kind of journals I use... well the ones featured currently on there are from a moleskin journal I received from "The Sketchbook Project". I usually use any and all journals I can get my hands on! LOL. I sometimes use "Composition Books" or "Exercise books" and just add Gesso to the pages before I work too. There are so many things you can do and it doesn't have to be expensive either. The point is to have fun! Your boot drawing is amazing... you are very talented.
    Thanks for stopping by my blog and I hope to hear from you again!.
