Haven’t finished any as yet, but have plenty of wip’s on the go.
The way I work is to do a bit of a drawing, put it aside for a half hour or more, then pick up where I left off once I can “see” what comes next.

My first attempt is a robed, Santa-ish figure. Had some trouble with the face (i hate drawing faces), and decided to just do eyes peering out from between bushy eyebrows and mustache.

He’s also kind of stiff-looking, but for a first try he’s not so bad

I’m pretty happy so far with this next one, it’s on the way to becoming a Christmas fairy; maybe a sort of sugarplum fairy.

Have almost finished the skirt, but am not sure where I’m going with that bodice. -What shape the neckline will be is still a mystery to me!

Then comes the arms, legs & head. I’m favouring plain black silhouette style arms, & ballet slippers with ribbons laced up the legs.

Another idea for Chrissy cards is of course baubles, and I have a few of those in the works, too.

Found outlines kind of fiddly until I hit on the idea of tracing around a cup (d’uh).

I thought you might find some bauble shapes fun to use with either zentangle doodles or digiscrap, so I scanned them before I began filling them out with designs and patterns.

Here’s four Christmas ornament shapes in png format (transparent backgrounds) for you to do whatever you want with.

They’re a bit rough, as I haven’t done anything other than remove the background so that you can fit them to a page and print them out using Word or whatever program suits.

Hope you get some use from them

This is one of my first attempts at doodling onto a painted design, and I’m quite impressed with how they turned out!

I saved all three trees at 300ppi, as transparent png files.

A tip for using my watercolour graphics:

If you’re using them on a textured background, try playing with the opacity of the layer that the watercolour graphic is on.

It can look really effective, especially on a paper background, making the graphic look as if it’s actually been painted onto the background.

As always, my graphics are transparent png files, saved at 300ppi.

You can use them any way you like, so long as you don’t claim them as your own work, and do link back here.

Have fun!

There’s eight different colours, and you can use them in any way you wish, provided you don’t claim them as your own & do link back to here.
