Over the holiday season, I decided that I was going to make some handmade postcards for my friends and family. For the past 30 something years, my father has been known to write and illustrate his own Christmas cards. I felt like this year I would put my own spin on his tradition. Being a print maker, I carved a stamp into this Christmas-spirited owl you see below. The owl is named 'Jo-Jo the Judgement Owl' and is a running joke among my friends and family. He actually has his own Facebook fan page (http://on.fb.me/SmzKPV). With different colors of card stock and ink on my side, I was able to make a few different versions of my feathered friend. Everything ended up very successful and ended up sending out 40 Christmas postcards!
