Christmas Card 2008

Wow the um..category selection was a bit..highly detailed...

This was my Christmas card for this year. I sent it out to a few people. I generally dont do Christmas pictures because Im not that inspired by Christmas amazingly and can never come up with an original idea to put on a card even. But a close highschool friend of mine keeps sending me cards for every holiday that guilt set in and I finally made one for her.

so miniscule simple cuteness.

Photoshop7 and a bunch of textures from CGtextures.

This is my first time trying to really do the whole paper cutout look..I did a secondary card on commission for my mothers work that featured beavers (which I dont know if Ill post or not) where I learned some new things to make the style look a bit better but this was my first try and I still think it has a bit of classic holiday cuteness.

Im using it as my christmas avatar this year too on some forums.
