Pretender.

J illustrated and designed these Christmas cards for Cebu Holdings Inc. and Ayala Land. My friend Barry says that the best way to receive a Christmas card is the old fashioned way, through snail mail and I agree. The unsealing and opening of a printed, written and delivered message is an experience that everyone should have, at least once a year.

An alternate design:

Christmas is just around the corner. Merry, merry everyone!

Papers and Tschai is a company that makes beautiful hand-crafted, hardbound journals. Chai, the mind behind Papers and Tschai, asked if we wanted to collaborate on a project where we would give her illustrations to use as covers for a special series of pocket journals. We were happy to do it and weeks on she sent us some samples of her superb work. These little notebooks fit perfectly into any pocket and come with an assortment of different paper types (from bond to watercolor paper).

The journals (which also feature art from Cebu based artists Lucille Umali, Govinda Trazo and Tambolbee Villarino) are for sale starting at PHP 300 (PLUS Shipping). If you are interested you can contact us here.
