December: the board game!
Illustrator's Edition
Ho Ho Ho November is finally behind us! And I made you a present!
Behold - DECEMBER: the Board Game - Illustrator’s Edition!
(Downloadable pdf at the bottom of this post)
Enjoy the thrills and spills of the last month of the year! It’s fun for all the family, gather round and see who’ll be the first to make it to December 25th!
Features all the illustrator’s classics like: waking in the middle of the night with a brilliant idea!
Being asked to work for “Exposure”! An exciting big commission! And everyone’s favourite: an existential crisis!
You don’t have to be an illustrator to play - it’s universal fun! Just might be extra relevant to you if you are an illustrator, or a designer, or work in any creative field.
Also, makes a great gift for any creative that you love / live with / need to get a gift for.
🎅Tricky Secret Santa? Print this game, wrap it in festive paper and cross that off your to do list!
There’s a downloadable pdf at the bottom of this post:
🌟Just print
🌟trim the edges
🌟put some glue along the labelled edge
🌟line up the two sides
🌟 while away those winter evenings with some traditional family fun!
Optional extra steps:
🌟flip the game over and add some sellotape to keep things secure
🌟Glue it to a piece of cardboard for extra sturdiness
You will need:
✨ Counters for each player - a coin, a scrap of paper, etc
✨ A standard 6 sided dice
✨ A coin to toss when you get to the last square
How to play:
💖 Any number of players
💖 The second youngest player goes first (my game, my rules)
💖 Everyone starts on the festive pencil case
💖 Roll the dice to see how many squares you move
🎄 First person to Christmas morning on the 25th wins! 🎄
This board game is totally free for you to enjoy!
Now I want to make board games for everything, not just for Christmas!
What would be your favourite subject for a board game?
All my posts are remaining free and open for the foreseeable future! If you fancy getting me a cuppa tea that would be amazing! Totally up to you, we’ll still be friends!
This is priceless! There should be a Nanette board game for everything. The first one that comes to mind is "Getting a new puppy!" the board game. Ooooh and followed by "breaking in a new sketchbook" and "trying a new social media platform." Haha. I could go all day! 😆
So fun and funny! Work for exposure had me lol-ing. (Though wait, what am I doing here??...existential crisis kicking in). As a mother with two young children I feel like a “get both kids out the door and into the car” could be an entire board game. Someone has to pee, a shoe is missing, peanut butter is where?! Etc etc
