My friend, Dan, will tell you that Wittchens love Christmas. This is very true, and when I was working on ideas for December’s illustration, I came up with myriad Christmas-themed possibilities. Because I love all things Christmas-related, I was having a hard time deciding between the concepts. Luckily, procrastination helped me out again, and I found myself suddenly at the end of the month with the new year looming in less than 12 hours. So instead of a Christmas theme, I decided to reflect a little on the turn of the year and specifically on the welcoming of the new year into your life when the clock strikes midnight.

Merry Bikemas!
It’s holiday crafting time in the Wittzler household, and I’ve been wanting to make my own Christmas cards for several years. This year, I decided to make it happen. I haven’t actually made my own cards yet, but this week I printed up a bunch of holiday-themed cards using my trusty tandem bicycle linocut. I printed up two versions–one on kraft paper and one on white paper. I’m kind of partial to the kraft paper, but that’s just the kind of girl I am. I think they’re super cute (see below), and they’re for sale over on Etsy if you’re interested. If you’re Philly-based and interested in them, send me a note, and we can skip the Etsy thing.
