It’s almost that time of year again! Because of possible shipping delays this year throughout Canada Post and USPS I decided to get my cards done early! If you’d like a larger order of cards please contact me ASAP and I can get your order in!

this small business saturday, support small business like mine! i’m so excited to be a part of storenvy’s sale, selling holiday cards that i collaborated on with danielle kerley.
I have been having so much fun collaging inspirational mood boards! Here is my latest creation, titled Modern Winter. Highlighting fellow Mintie, Root Beer Float &/co. uber-cool holiday card, “Happiness For All”.
Custom portraits are so much fun for us because we get the chance to really get to know our clients (with their families and friends, pets, boyfriends and girlfriends, etc…) through the photos they send us before telling the story of who they are through various types of illustration! – While each portrait holds a place in our Frame & Follie hearts, this one is special in that it was our very first custom illustration sold via Etsy…to a complete stranger! It took a few tries to get the look just right, but it pushed us toward another style of drawing which we’re excited to offer clients in the future! – A special thanks goes out to the Vila family as we wish them a very Happy New Year!
Even with a tight deadline, when Catherine contacted us about creating a custom holiday card for her and her family, we jumped at the opportunity. And when she told us what she had in mind, we were even more excited! It was as though she’d been peaking at our own holiday sketches! – With a new (but naughty!) puppy, Catherine wanted something candid and playful. She asked us to illustrate them as though they were posing for a photo gone wrong! We immediately loved the idea, and we loved when their hand-drawn portrait, surrounded by a wall of holly, suddenly took on a festive storybook feel! Very Merry Christmas to The Donoghues!

Here’s the Dragon Quest-themed holiday postcard that @bogieg87 & I collaborated on for this year~ He sketched & inked the main drawing, while I was able to jump in & focus on the coloring & everything else!
Regardless, I hope everyone stays healthy & safe this holiday season! No matter what holiday or who you plan to celebrate it, have a wonderful time filled with memories!
In case only children are trying to write realistic sibling interactions : remember this card and the fact that this person’s sibling saw their illiterate child buy this, in fact probably paid for it, and said nothing
