Holiday Card Flashback 2005

This was the Holiday Card from Christmas 2005. I didn’t feel like I had punished myself nearly enough after I composed and illustrated this one………Sooooo, I cut out copies of myself an Dirty Girl and taped them on the card front using carpet tape to give us a more three-dimensional appearance. After all Dirty Girl and I are larger than life.

    Thanks. We actually have two mailing list for holiday cards. One list for those with an advanced sense of humor and another list for those with more conservative, or no sense of humor at all (they receive a bland uninspiring card from one of those boxed sets)

    I am pleased to say that those on the “fun” list outnumber those on the “uptight” list four to one!

    patches, that is a fantastic card! I love your sense of humor, and I, too have 2 different lists, unfortunately, my uptight list isn’t quite as short as yours, it would seem.
