CHRISTMAS CARD DESIGNS (ver. 2009)

Well, it's that time of year again. Time to whip up some personalized Christmas cards for a few folks who aided us in our vacation plans. These kind people were kind enough to rent us their vacation homes which in turn provided us with many, many fond memories. The digs include Gary's fantasic cottage on White Lake which for me is the best week of my summer. Pam and the kids love it too but for me it's heaven on earth. Those sunsets on the dock are as close to a religious experience as I have ever had. I'm sure my bud Danny would agree. Brenda and Steve's condo at Mont Tremblant is a polar opposite to Gary's but provided us with a week nestled in the lap of luxury. Three tier swimming pools, Weber BBQ, the best bikes I have ever ridden and the condo itself with it's comfortable furniture, whirlpool tub and fantastic fireplace. I could get used to living like that.

So as a thank you, I've designed these simple Christmas cards to show how much we appreciate their kind offers. Merry Christmas one and all.

Below you'll see the before and afters.

JUKE BOX MANIA

Friends Lynne & Gord Phillips invited us along to this year's Juke Box Mania. A charity event that tests your team's knowledge of rock n' roll. A lot of fun and a great night out. I even got to meet Les Emmerson (Five Man Electrical Band and solo artist). See more photos here.
