Happy New Year!
We just got back from a wonderful time with my family in Scotland. The time there always goes way too fast. There were a lot of visits and catching up with friends but we also found some time to stay around the house and be mellow. I also had to work a bit when we were there but it was sweetened by having my neices popping in every now and then to peek over my shoulder to see what I was up to :)
Now we are back in Montreal, unpacked and ready to face 2008. In our Illustration for Kids forum, we have been talking about our goals for the year. Last year, my goal was to get regular illustration work and it worked out very well. This year I am lucky enough to have a lot of work to keep me busy from now until the end of June, so I think the few goals that I have left are:
* Find some time to create just for the fun of it
* Get back into sewing - I miss making little creatures
* I would love to illustrate another picture book
* Learn Corel Painter - I bought it last year, then got too busy to try out the tutorials!
Just before we left for Scotland, I managed to squeeze in a Christmas crafts afternoon with my son. We were inspired by a great tutorial by Sarah over at: The Small Object
Here's my little guy:
And my son Ewan's:
I wish you all a very happy and creative year!

I love love love these! They are SO cute! I think Bones is my fave. You inspire me to sew - although nothing I do will be that awesomely adorable.
love your santa! Much more interesting than that standard kind :)
oh Belle is bellissimo! Put them in Etsy - quick!!

These are so lovely; I think Norbert has to be favourite, even though I am allergic to Christmas.
Love these! They are just adorable. I do like bones but maybe that's because Halloween is coming.
I am checking your etsy store daily to see when these will be listed. I adore your softies!
More cuteness :)
Love Bones !!
That little skeleton fellow is to die for cute!
No pun intended :-)
oh my! the cute! Halloween is my favorite but that tinsel is just great :)
fantastic blog!

I have been haunting your Etsy shope every day hoping these are listed soon. I don't want to miss out on on buying one :)
Will they be listed soon?
No need to worry Dot - I will give plenty of notice when I put them up for sale. I got caught up making a few more, so at this rate, they will all be in the shop at the end of this week. But I will let everyone know the exact date a few days beforehand. Thanks for being so keen! :)
what a sweet little skeleton!
