Egads! It's Almost Here! Quick, More Good, Borrowed Images & Xmas Tunes

From: http://thehauntedlamp.blogspot.com/2009/12/wrap-it-up-50s-botanical-paper.html

Wrap It Up: 50's Botanical Paper - This vintage paper features brown, green, and gold period graphics. Holiday plants are pressed against skewed, square backgrounds, and the paper has the ubiquitous 50's star bursts and script.
(Is it weird that vintage wrapping paper gets me excited? And don't get me started on contact paper...)

Dan Piraro - Here is a little Xmas cartoon for the season. Being a department store Santa has got to be tough. I don't think I'd be very good at it and I know I wouldn't like it. I'm not the sort of person who is good with the public in this kind of situation. I've never worked retail, but I'm guessing I'd last a couple of hours at the most before punching someone and getting fired. Good thing I can draw funny.

unfortunately, the casette had to go. The company though it looked a little old fashioned. They've got a point, of course.

Wrap It Up: Quirky Santa - This paper is a bit more traditional, but I felt it was stylized enough for the collection. It does remind me of 60's animation.
