I always get so excited about Christmas. For the past couple of years, I’ve sold my art at Christmas Fayres – and my bestsellers have always been cards with christmassy lino cut prints on them.

I’m tired this year and couldn’t take that opportunity even if it presented itself, but I’ve lino cut my own new Xmas print for my friends and family to receive.

After a little experimenting (you can see below), I decided that watercolouring a patch of red underneath each bird to represent the red breast was my favourite look. It makes every card especially unique, and the red I have from my Artway kit is so vibrant!

I thought I’d include this because it’s an example of my personal artwork! I did this on a weekend home, and in all I made 26 cards.

I’ve even bought some little peppermint candy canes to slip into the cards of some of my closest friends!
