XMAS 2015 - fran wood design

These beautiful Christmas cards by Fran Wood were inspired by vintage Bulgarian stamps and Czechoslovakian folk art. Fran began by making sketches then cutting them of paper and scanning them into Photoshop to create the finished artwork. Fran has worked as a commercial designer in the past but currently teaches art to primary children. All the card designs are available to buy online at Etsy and are digitally printed onto a textured card, to give them a handmade/retro 70s feel.

Fran took an evening course in screen printing and loved the process and outcome so much it inspired her to start creating her own designs to print onto fabric and paper has set up a small business called Fran Wood Design. You can see more of her greetings cards, tea towels and tote bags online here at Etsy,
