Christmas Gift Tags

I have been making some Christmas gift tags. They sort of look slightly scrappy and I will perhaps re-do them but as a first attempt I am quite happy with them.

They are made with coloured card, which is a fairly fun medium to work with but is a bit messy with all the little bits of paper that ends up everywhere.




Previously I had some similar ideas for gift tags-In my sketch book I drew and painted the tags instead



however I didn't really like the way they felt after being painted (I used watercolour paints) . I am still learning how to properly shade things so I wasn't entirely pleased with those either.

New Blog

I have decided to start this blog as I have recently taken up drawing, painting, cooking, taking pictures, and other crafty-type things. I haven't ever really drawn or painted and to look at what I've done, you can see how much of a "beginner" I am but I don't mind that...I'm trying just to have fun and not get caught up with the quality.
