Christmas Robin


Here's my latest Christmas card design. The photo used was taken in our garden where we have quite a few robin visitors although if two turn up at once there is usually trouble!

The robin loves pecking at the half coconut filled with a fat mixture.
You can add a Greeting to the front and add a message inside.

Christmas Pointsetta

Over the Christmas period you won't fail to see Pointsettas on sale in garden centres and supermarkets. Due to their Christmassy look they are very popular houseplants at this time of year.

The flowers are the tiny cluster in the centre of the bright red bracts. Pointsettas will suffer if transported on very cold days so make sure that the whole plant is hidden in a plastic bag during your journey home.

Although you can treat pointsettas as perennials, it is a difficult process to get them to produce the red bracts in subsequent years so most plants are treated as annuals.

Pointsettas are often featured on Christmas cards. If you wish to use the image below click on the Create button. You may also like to use the image as a piece of Christmas wall art.

How to customise a ready made greetings card

This short video may help show how you can customise any of the ready designed cards available from my website. I'm afraid the quality or lack of it is down to YouTube but I hope it's good enough to give you some idea!

Snowdrop card.

I know that snowdrops are hardly a Christmas flower but a photo of snowdrops shrouded in snow make a lovely subject for a Christmas or New Year's card. It just so uplifting to look forward to the first snowdrop when we are in the depth of winter

Christmas tree designs.

Both of these images were based on photographs taken when I used to work at Woolley hall in Wakefield.

The first is a view of the front of the main house with the addition of some artistic licence.

Each year at Christmas time a large Christmas tree was installed at the foot of the main staircase in the main lounge area. The following image was based on a photograph of the tree taken in 2003.

Below is the original photograph - not really up to current days standards as cameras have developed since then and are more able to deal with the challenging light conditions.
