Holly was the most peculiar of Creatures....

At the last minute (12th Dec) I decided to make my own Christmas Cards to get myself in the mood for the season. The result is a little character I created called 'Holly' (original...it being Christmas and all.....) :S

I began by experimenting with the traditional 'Christmas Colours' Red and Green (Turquoise to be exact....well it is THE COLOUR OF 2009, according to CREATIVE REVIEW) but in the end I opted for brighter shades of pink and orange for my designs, just to stay away from the look of your conventional Christmas card.

The result is nothing special, just a quirky little card that I can send to loved ones this Christmas (if they are printed in time) :O

Anyway, below are some of the colour/layout experiments and also the finished two designs, enjoy and Seasons Greetings!! ><
