December Monthly Painting Project: Make Your Own Christmas Card

I made this Christmas card by taking a digital photo of a pen drawing my five-year-old nephew had done after he got hold of my pocket Moleskine sketchbook and a waterproof black pen. (I did have a few moments' worry about him getting the decidedly waterproof ink on his clothes, but fortunately he didn't.)

I then filled it in with 'digital paint'. (See How to Make Christmas Cards for a bit more how-to info.) He's very into the way things work, which is why the Christmas tree lights have the wires between them drawn, but he did ask his Mum to draw the star on top of the tree.
