Description My Christmas card for 2008. Inspired by Mineko Ohkami's "Dragon Knights"!

Didn't feel like using red, so I used primarily muted cool colors. I love Hayai's dress.

Suisei, Hayai (C) Me

It's probably the first gray dress ever in my entire gallery. I tried to go for a more silvery look, but I actually kind of like it gray. Mom gave me the idea for little flowers on the bodice.

Thank you for the card!!! When I saw this in your gallery, I was all---I wish I got one! And lo, it came in a couple of days ago but I've been swamped with work so I haven't had a chance to say tell you yet. XD

Oh my god, the poor post office on base is still swamped with gifts and stuff. We're still getting backlogs on magazines.

And THANK YOU for the card you sent me! And it has Quinn and Tybalt in it!! Currently, it is on display on my dresser, one of the first things you see in my room. I squeed when I got it and my parents were looking at me funny. They keep forgetting I have a buddy in California. ^___^

Up next! Valentines cards! Oh god, I could make this into a profession. Hallmark, here I come!

You really know how to set the gentle mood. I don't know about you but this pic makes me smile whenever I see it.

I think it's the colors because they're less bold. My original theme was "silver bells" which inspired the fantasy design for those bizarre lilies she's holding, but then it progressed into the whole picture. I like the chemistry that their personalities create. This is one of their more sweet, subdued moments.

I still need to send you yours! I can't believe how hard it was to find a box small enough to send you your gift. You'll be getting that here sometime soon!!

That's part of my dilemma; I only had your Lake Tapps address. I just got a box, so it should be in the mail by Tuesday (post office is closed Monday, dammit).

Sure! That's sound great. Just send me a note and I'll have that in the mail before you can say Jiminy Cricket!

Very beautiful dress indeed! I love the muted colors that still have a Christmas and Holiday feel to them. I must say I also like the thicker neck on Suisei, he looks very MANLEH

Hope you had a great Holiday!

I be working on those male designs; I'm getting better! Hopefully I'll be able to master male anatomy more, so my guys won't be wearing such baggy and voluminous clothing. Suisei is gonna lose that shirt someday! *cackle*
