2006 Christmas Cards

Presenting the Kern Family’s 2006 Christmas cards… This year we decided that we’d let Hope’s creativity be the source of inspiration for our Christmas cards to help give that extra special personal touch to this year’s cards.

amandakern - Haha! And my students thought they had to do a lot of rough drafts, right. That’s it – I’m changing the projects so there are 50 rough drafts per project next semester guys.

We decided to do just one version this year, though this year’s cards were actually MORE work than last years. The cards include a snowman made of buttons. Hope drew the snowman’s hat and arms, and insisted on making sure she drew an orange carrot nose on every snowman. [...]
