Owl Coasters!

I think by now I've doubled my post count for 2011, that's so sad! haha! But good too because I have so much more things to show you all :)

These drink coasters were a Christmas gift to some of my family (yes, I know it was forever ago... but I couldn't help it!) and I had taken pictures of them to share, but when my Blackberry bit the dust it took all my pictures with it :( So I was lost until I asked my loverly sister to please please send me some pictures of them.  To which she promptly interrupted her Philosophy study session to send me some quick pics of these squee-able coasters.

These are based off of my Owl characters who never got to make it to the wrapping paper I was planning.  Next year!

Owl #1

Owl #2

Owl #3

Owl #4

The whole collection!

I was so happy with how these turned out! I'm planning on making a bunch for gifts and maybe some extra in case you guys want some.

I can't say this was all my idea, my friend Stacee sent me some for Christmas with stamped zoo animals (and a Sock Monkey!!) on it and I became obsessed with finding out how she did it. I knew it would be perfect for my little owls.

I hope you enjoy these as much as I do and if you are interested in some, just shoot me an email at hobbs.annie@gmail.com

Have a Blessed Day!

2010 Christmas Card "Happy Owlidays"

Wow! Its been a really long time since I last blogged. Work has been INSANE and I indulged in one of my other hobbies (theater) and performed during the Christmas season in "The Sound of Music".  So much fun but mixed with other holiday responsibilities/duties it left me with little time for much else... like blogging... and cleaning....  :/  eww.


However! Before the season started to get out of hand in regards to the many places I had to be at the same time, I sketched out and finished this illustration in the hopes of it being a Christmas card for my family.  He'll definitely be in my stack of cards for next year as well :)

Hope he brings a smile to your face...

I hope everyone had a Fantastic Holiday! and wish you all a Blessed New Year :)
