mangle prints monday 24 october 2016 christmas cards 2016 i realise it s been a long time since my last post the beginning of the year and what then seemed a whole new creative adventure it s been a tumultuous year and in life nothing really goes as planned i started the year with all good intentions of pushing my creative boundaries and recording them on this humble little blog i m sure like many new year plans and resolutions i am not the only person to let these plans and ideas lapse so a whole 10 months since my previous post i am finally breaking the hiatus each year i like to create and print my own christmas cards and the usual time to get printing is around halloween it s a time of year that marks the definite change in the seasons cooler days and darker nights i don t feel so uneasy thinking about the up and coming christmas season and plenty of time ahead to cut print and dry the cards this year i have kept the designs simple but with a definite folk inspiration all cards are available from my folksy site which can be found here https folksy com shops mangleprints posted by mangle prints at 15 13 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to
