I had the honor and privilege to create a little piece of wrapping paper for the Wall Street Journal Europe's Holiday Gift Guide's back cover. It was a treat of a project, and I got a full page, no copy no nothing just to let my illo shine. Thanks to EL, the remarkable art director who had me in her clipping file for "the right job"--and for her marrying me up with such a fun project. Here is the PDF of the Gift Guide --back page, please.

You will see many of these elements popping up in my Advent Calendar as I am loving these pieces and want to make little pretties to make your holidays a bit sweeter. You too, can print this out and wrap a little something in it, a jewel, a shiny rock, a shell, or an exotic tidbit from nearby or far away.
