Nice cards. I prefer the illustrations over the designs though, they show a little more character…
I’m loving everything tree-related and though I’m not usually a fan of pastels, I find I’m really liking Crack-a-lackin’. It just evokes that fun tradition
“hand illustrated christmas cards” sounds like a good idea for an article too :)
I like the simplicity of the designs in this collection. I’ve always believed that there is sophistication in simplicity. And most of the time, “stylish” is not equal to over-decoration without direction – this usually end up as clutter.
COOKIES, LIST AND COFFEE? is a funny one, nice collection
Some excellent designs here, I like the Thanksgiving one. Being British I’m still not really sure what Thanksgiving is all about. And the Technology Tree reminds me of the London Underground and the Manchester tram maps. Or maybe that was the idea?
Lovely stuff. My kids liked these almost as much as I did
I also prefer the illustrations. I do a lot of product design and graphic design for christmas, thanks for compiling this list together, it is good for inspiration.
These are such attractive Christmas graphics and illustrations! This kind of Xmas themed artwork can sometimes be tacky, but these are really lovely.
