In addition to creating Christmas cards from an original painting of my own, I also use photographs that I have taken to make a calendar each year. I have around a dozen of them made up on Shutterfly, and I give them out as Christmas presents.
My 2020 calendar featured pictures of Austria that I took on my European trip last summer.
Just as the subject of the painting for my Christmas card is a closely guarded secret, so too is the theme of my calendar.
The 2021 calendar was completed more than a week ago, and it should arrive at my house today or tomorrow. By the way, last Friday I picked up my Christmas cards at the printer.
You are amazing. I'm impressed with all your projects. I wish I could get motivated........do you think there will be a Christmas? Right now we are waiting to hear if Dia de los Muertos will happen in SMA. El Grito is "virtual" this year! So far we have had NO festivals in a town that usually has one a day......amazing.
ReplyDeleteI suspect that a lot of people will have big family gatherings for Thanksgiving and Christmas, but I fear for the consequences.
DeleteI hope the big Día de Muertos parades in Mexico City, which attract more than a million spectators are cancelled.
I'm enjoying the September 2020 photo now, every time I walk past it hanging on the kitchen cupboard. Thank you, cousin!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! You will receive the 2021 calendar later this year.
