One of my favourite artistic styles is Art Deco. The ladies and gents (depicted in the movies) all dressed up and had a whale of a time.

This Artist Trading card is therefore dedicated to my love of the era.

Sometimes I find the things that other people do a little magical. It could be a skill or a talent – I know such a diverse and talented bunch of people that I am surprised that I don’t live in a perpetually awestruck state.

Anyway, it was this feeling that I wanted to convey in today’s Artist Trading Card.

Do all living creatures dream? If so, what do they dream about? That was a question that I asked myself as I was making today’s Artist Trading Card.

Yes, I do think some bizarre things as I am crafting don’t I?

Hello all. Welcome back to my little series of Artist Trading Cards. This post features number 16 of 365.

The theme for this one came from the sentiment stamp that I used and is something that we should all try and do as often as possible – no matter how hard it may seem.

So this year I decided that I wanted to have a daily post on my blog but was a little concerned as life can sometimes take up a lot of the time that I would have ordinarily dedicated to the blog.

For this reason, and seeing that some of my friends were doing something similar, I thought that I would aim for some little makes, such as Artist Trading Cards.

This post therefore is the first in a 365 blog post series showing off a range of the little critters that I have been making in those little snatched moments of creativity.

Today I’ll be kicking off my Christmas projects (better late than never). These will be a collection of Christmas themed makes and handmade gifts that I have been working on recently.

This first one is a quick and easy range of gift tags that I have been experimenting with that I hope to adorn my handmade Christmas Gifts with.

They use very little in terms of materials but still gave me some freedom in how I decorated them.
