December is here, another year is ending and nothing better than creating a Christmas desktop wallpaper using Photoshop to celebrate that right? Well, maybe not.
Anyways I created this image using paths, the brush engine and layer styles in Photoshop. Besides that, I used some amazing Christmas Icons I found online at http://www.iconarchive.com/category/christmas-icons.html
The step-by-step tutorial will be posted soon at psdtuts.com, but below you can see and download the wallpaper in a 1440x900 version and the iPhone version.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Sabine Ten Lohuis, a freelancer designer and illustrator currently based inRotterdam, Netherlands. She graduated from the visual arts academy Willem de Kooning in 2009 with a degree in illustration and a minor in painting. But she also has a great interest for animation and graphic design.

The book suggestion of this week is for those out that love posters, I believe everyone. The book is calledWar Posters: Weapons of Mass Communication and as the name says it's all about war posters. It is divided by wars and you can get tons of inspiration from it.
