\"Hand-letterpressed<\/p>\n

As is our little household tradition, we print up our own Christmas cards every year<\/a> on a tiny, hand-operated letterpress. We usually try and let our experiences of the past year direct what the design is, and after the second year of pandemic-life, we almost didn\u2019t get our cards made in time for the season, because we couldn\u2019t think of anything exciting that happened in our house in 2021.<\/p>\n

Then we spotted the elephant (or should it be cat?) in the room: Of course something totally awesome happened this year – I had my first children\u2019s picture book published! So we went pretty simple with the design, and I drew up Asta driving another absurd vehicle, but in a Christmas stylee. It\u2019s one of my favourite seasonal accoutrements, the yule log!<\/p>\n
