Holiday Cards



Have I mentioned that my daughter Sarah is a graphic designer? 
She designed my logo and stationary for my business and blog. 
She is very talented and her design company is called January designs.  








              Every year around this time she designs                a collection of Holiday Cards for her friend       and past clients. 
           
        This year she used vintage ephemera and                  botanical prints as her inspiration. 

She is an avid collector of all things vintage, especially paper related things.

 You can see more of her cards and on her Etsy shop here where she sells them. 

The card above is my favorite. 
I love the pattern in the background.




She used a needle and thread to create the design above.
 I love the Art Deco feel!






Her photographer friends, Kelli and Brooke, gave Sarah these images to use on her cards.












Along with doing commercial work, she also is a collage artist. 

Her and her husband love the ocean and both surf.....
 so most of her collage work reflects her love of the sea.





Most of her collages are made from vintage ephemera, some as early as the 1920's!







She also sells her collage work on Etsy.








You can see more of her work on her website here!
