TOOLS of the TRADE:
Christmas cards


Creative Christmas cards by Jonathan Yuen (Singapore).

Pre-cut shapes you simply pop out and build to create a little 3D figure. So cool they are already sold out!




HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

TOOLS of the TRADE:
collage


I adore Sushipot by Suzanna Scott. Her collages have a vintage feel. Her work reminds me of old story books I used to read in the local library and my mom's old Good Housekeeping magazines.

Great inspiration!


The brown buttons are layers of sewing pattern tissues. How clever!
