Seasons Greetings, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays....hope you're having a wonderful holiday season - whatever holidays you celebrate. I hope the start of winter is going well (or summer if you're way down south). Here in Phoenix it's going good...it's a little chilly for us, but I'm enjoying every bit of it.
So every year I do a Kreienbrink Christmas Card and share it on the blog. This year I've combined themes - birth of Jesus (of course), holly, and green/red, and also our location. At the bottom, just like a physical card, I share a message for friends and family as well.

| Kreienbrink Christmas Card design - Christmas 2018 - pen and ink and electronic paint |
This years card is above. I started with a pen and ink drawing of all the elements and imported it into the computer. Once in the computer, I painted in the color portions in Photoshop. The city is Phoenix, featuring the Star of David/the star in the east, and some other Christmas themes making the border. It was a fun little project. I don't mail Christmas cards out - this is my card and I share it on social media and in direct messaging as well (a little bit). For me it's a nice way to try to brighten the holidays and let people know you care.
I hope you holidays are going well. May the peace and joy of the season, fill your heart and mind all year long. Make every day a great day. Reach out - and make someone's day - for no reason. Let's have the best year yet.
Peace and Love,
Tom Kreienbrink
PS - below are a few cards from years past. Have a great day.
