I guess the Year of the Dragon doesn't officially start until the 23rd, but since my family gets together to celebrate New Years on the 1st, I decided to use a dragon image to decorate the jars of cereal mix I shared with my family today.
The dragon image I used comes from the Pagoda cartridge. I wasn't entirely happy with the way he looks, so I did do quite an extensive image search on the internet hoping to find a better image to render into a cutfile but was unable to find one that would cut well or quickly enough for this last minute quickie project. Reluctantly, I settled on using the dragon from the Pagoda cartridge and welded the "2012" using the Don Juan font onto its shadow in Design Studio.
Decorated 13 of these and wrapped the jars in cellophane bags, finishing them off with this round seal. Best wishes to all for a Happy New Year of good health, good fortune and good times!

Hi Eunice,
OMG,totally awesome!!! You did a superb job. These decorated jars are very eye-catching, especially since red and black is one of my favorite combos. And I think the dragon image came out perfectly. I'll wait for the 23rd as I'm born in the year of the dragon. Thank you very much for your sweet comment too and being a huge inspiration to me. Happy New Year!!!
