Giving thanks and glad tidings

This is the last leg of the year. The grand finale that ends the year with holidays that remind us to be grateful and to spread kindness to others and the world.

Every year I create new cards to help people do just that. In a time when computers and text messaging has become the mode of communication, I offer cards with the hopes that people will choose a more personal way to do that. Who does not like fan mail saying they are being thought of, whether it be for a birthday, holiday, special occasion or “ just because”. The cards are blank inside giving plenty of room for a simple hello or longer note.

The Thanksgiving 2025 card. THANKSGIVING BOUNTY. I created this illustration for my 4th children’s book FANTABULOUS, THE WONDER-FILLED MONTHS OF THE YEAR.

I have 2 other Thanksgiving cards that are available as well which have become quite popular and enjoyed.

This is the new 2025 Christmas card, ALL AGLOW . I like my cards to be bright and cheerful as I believe the season should be. I have many other Christmas cards to choose from, some are just for a winter greeting. I have many snowman cards for those who love these magical beings.

I have written, illustrated and published 4 books geared for children, but adults enjoy them as well. They were written when my children were growing up, but were not published until much later, in time for my grandchildren to enjoy. I am so very happy to have been able to fulfill my wish to publish them.

You can view my cards, over 45 to choose from, in the Cards Gallery and my books in the Books Gallery. You will find them in many shops and you can purchase them direct from me through the Contact page. I am happy to sign and write a special message inside the books.

I wish for you happy and wonder-filled holidays. May peace and love fill the world.
