Merry Christmas!

MerryDay's Christmas design set

So, It's December already. The month of celebration, the month of thinking about the past and planning for the future. It seems to me though that December is actually a pause period for working. Everybody is busy thinking about parties, gifts and family reunion. I especially love the cool breeze in the morning and the sky looks clearer and more beautiful than in other seasons :)

And good weather really affects my mood for art :D Above is a gift card designed for MerryDay's Christmas card set. The illustration is actually a blown-up version of my Christmas Girl's hat which I drew last year.


Last year I did this girl as an e-card and postcards for my friends, didn't make it for sale but this year I'm still in love with her, so how about making her a small gift card ? and since I cannot find small envelope, I also make its envelope by hand with kraft paper :)


I love making things in set, making Christmas Girl gift tags seems like a good idea :) I love the red wine and pumpkin orange ribbon, don't you?


As if it's not enough... sometimes designing stationery set is like a game for me, I can keep on thinking about it, make it big, make it grow... Here another tag design, Red M and snowman Christmas gift tags :) Just love the red Christmas color! My friend told me that the letter M looked cute and reminded her of cookies. it's just like a compliment somehow :D

   All of these Christmas items are available now on  my shop. I enjoy making this design set. Hope you love them too!

Welcome to MerryDay's Little Tea Party!

Would you like a cup of tea? With milk or just sugar? Come sit with me :-)

I don't know about you but, to me, the word 'tea time' does give me some sense of happiness, almost romantically We don't have tea time in Thailand. I guess we just have coffee time which has changed into something quite different since Starbucks came. But that's another story. Today we are going to have cups of tea, shall we?

I did this Tea Time Duo Mini Flat Notecard Set by beginning with this original drawing of the Tea Hatter. Then came the Teacup Girl. After that I dropped these two characters for a while. Now they are back with these little yummy cake girls.





A cup of tea, a piece of roll cake or a slice of strawberry shortcake while chatting with friends, what more do you want for a happy afternoon? :D

I think you can tell how much I enjoyed making this little tea time set. They are all available on my shop. I will be very happy if you just stop by and take a look :D

Thanks for coming. I wish you have a merry day and maybe a little cup of tea?

Come fly with me

Hmm...I have just realized that I completely forgot to post about my latest illustration card! How could I let it slip from my mind??

Anyway, I listed this Come Fly with Me Hot Balloon design card in my shop just last week. I got the concept from my best friend. She wanted a cute illustration New Year card for her fan club (she's a novelist). Book and traveling were keywords. I thought of airplane and travel luggage first but they seemed so dry. Then I thought of a blogger talking about her hot balloon experience over canyon. I was impressed. It must have been mesmerizing moment to be up there in the sky, feel cool breeze and admire the beauty of the earth.

So, here is my illustration originated from the idea. My friend got her personalized version, of course. She is kind enough to let me put the design on my shop too. I really enjoy drawing this and the result is satisfying.

If you like this, please share. It would be nice to see my girl riding balloon and be out in the bigger world of internet!
