To several of my friends I gave handmade origami ornaments. The green decorative paper seemed like a good place to start, and the hanger was made from some shimmery embroidery thread.

The design for my Christmas gifts began with Ikea napkins and greeting cards.

After baking several batches of cookies, all I needed to transform them into small gift packets for friends was: A plastic bag, scissors, bag tie, festive napkin, and rubber band!

My four batches of American cookies: snickerdoodles, sugar cookies, peanut butter cookies, and ranger cookies. The blue freezer bags I'd had in the cupboard for ages and was glad to find a use for.

The final result: cute, individual packets of American cookies! My British friends loved them.

My husband was just saying yesterday that I should make some art based on our own cute kitten. These pieces I found today are definitely cute examples of kitten art!

I really love the image on her main page, it’s so beautiful. I actually have a photo of some flowers that I want to illustrate that look really similar to these, so it’s a good inspiration for me!
Check out her other illustration and design work.
