For the past year, I have shared monthly illustrations of The Girl Friends. Today marks the 12th illustration!

I hope you’ve enjoyed them! You might see some of them in the future! To review all the post, I’ve included links above.

Many of my designs, such as Princess Life, Urban Zoologie, and Jingle, are also available on Cuddle fabric. To keep up to date on what cuddle fabric I have, my friends over at Shannon’s Fabric have the latest cuddle news. They manufacture all of my cuddle fabrics. Pat Wodskow of Cuddle Soft Kits made me an early Christmas present that I absolutely LOVE.  If you’re interested in sewing with cuddle fabric, Cuddle Soft Kits is a great resource for all things cuddle. There’s a pretty large assortment of cuddle quilt kits (including the cuddly goodness I’m snuggled with). She also has readmade cuddle quilts (including Christmas)! Below are some of my other Jingle cuddle prints. You can see all of my cuddle designs here.

There are so many great simple sewing tutorials out there. Veronica of SewVery has several cute sewing Christmas tutorials, such as these fabric ornaments. We used some of my Remix fabric to make a few. Although they’re ornaments, you could also use them as a gift topper. She has a Simple Christmas Tree Ornament Tutorial and a Simple Candy Cane Ornament Tutorial. (She also has a Santa hat and Stocking ornament tutorial). Tis the season, friends!

2015 holiday party invitations

holiday party invitations / ann kelle for tiny prints

I’m happy to share with you a few of my holiday party invitations I designed exclusively for Tiny Prints. I designed several holiday party invitations with different themes in mind. From a cookie party to a christmas tree decorating party.  Similar to my holiday cards, each party invitation has several different options. We provide you with various color options and a ton of component pieces (address labels, thank you cards, gift enclosures, envelope liners, etc.). You can see my entire collection here. I’m so happy Christmas is just around the corner!

2015 holiday cards

November 30, 2015

holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints

I’m happy to introduce you to my 2015 Holiday cards designed exclusively for Tiny Prints. I started designing these cards awhile ago, so it’s fun to see them up on the Tiny Prints website. After the initial design is done, we spend a lot of time making sure that each card is perfect for you. For many of the cards, we provide several options for the color, card size, sentiment and number of photos.  Most of them also come with component pieces, such as address labels and envelope liners. I took a bunch of pictures of the designs. But, to see my entire collection, head here. I also have party invitations, which I’ll share tomorrow.

holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints I had to sneak a little pink into my holiday cards. This is one of my favorites. It’s called “Cheerful Trinity“. It’s available in three colors and there’s a bunch of options for card sizes and the number of photos. 
holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints

This is a trifold card, which is perfect for when you have a lot of photos to share. It comes in 3 other color ways. There’s also a coordinating address label.

holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints

These are two also my favorites. Joyful Craft is available in 3 colors and gives you the option for 1 or 3 photos. Boldly Blocked is also available in three colors. There are a ton of formats for you to choose from the card size to the number of photos. You also have the option of choosing from three different styles address labels!

holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints

I tried to make sure to have the more “traditional” christmas colors, but both of these designs also come in a more fun non traditional color option.  Dab O’Chalk and Patched and Happy  comes in 3 colors ways. Both of these designs are available in various card sizes and photo amounts. Patched and Happy  also comes in another sentiment.

holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints

One of the funnest parts of designing these cards are the backs. All of the cards have a design on the back.

holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints

Throwback Flurries kinda reminds me a retro diner. It’s also available in two other colors.

holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints

Here are a few of my more colorful designs. All of them also come in the traditional “red and green” color. Pictured above are Boldly Backed , Boldly Blocked and Patched and Happy.

holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints

As I mentioned, we like for you to have lots and lots of options. Throwback Flurries  has lots of options! This is a good example of the different card sizes, number of photos and sentiments available.

holiday cards / ann kelle for tiny prints
All of the cards come with the option of envelope liners. They really add a nice little pop to your perfectly selected holiday card. As I mentioned before, I didn’t photograph my entire collection. To see the entire line head here
