2020 Advent Calendar [18] – Embers and Ink

Embers and Ink is the nickname of Emma Woorthorpe, Instagram here and Linktree here. On her Folksy shop (unfortunately closed until after the festivities, so you’ll have to bookmark this for later) you can find her series of festive road signals: Let it Snow, Elves Crossing and such. There’s also a section with stocking fillers ideas and a link to become her patron. My favourite item has to be the beautiful colour in and cut out cardboard Bauble Pack.

I warned you I would try and do a sort of Advent Calendar recommending you an indipendent artist and illustrator each day till Christmas: I’m not making any promises, let’s see if I can keep this up.
