Tell us one of your best (or most entertaining) holiday memories.
My mom and sister have always made the holidays special. They put the Q-T in cute. I don't have a specific story other than an appreciation for marking the day. You have to make it special. If that means decorating to your heart's desire, then go for it.
I got in the holiday mood for this contest by . . .
Well it's not too hard in the Pacific Northwest. The week I was working on this seemed like December (rain). But honestly this was a heartfelt effort. I managed to hit on something that really meant something to me. I've made a lot of things but I don't know that how often I really put myself in something. Even the cause is close to my heart, but I want to respect my family's privacy on that one. But it was easy to find Christmas in August because this was about people I love, for me.
Why is your card the perfect choice for anyone sending holiday cards this season?
Well, the holidays are all about love, aren't they? When I thought about this card, I thought about the message I want to send the people I love at Christmas.
Tell us (and the world) a little bit about yourself.
Well, I'm an animator. I've worked on stuff for kids for years. I went into management full-time a couple years ago trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my own work. I have to say this is the first thing I've done that has brought a lot of things I've been trying together. I'm married, no kids. Great family both sides and extended. I'm lucky. And grateful to be part of this contest.

The best of the best! Fantastic job!
How adorable! It captured my heart.
Just precious! I really like how the graphic is a sentiment, not a specific holiday or denomination celebration.

A very imaginative use of the word and a nice gesture for the seasons.
Perfect! My family has always enjoyed my choice in cards over my lifetime. Unfortunately, over the past year or two, the selection of cards are not what they used to be. But now yours is a winner and one that I would definitely select when shopping for that "special card". No need for words, your characterization tells it all. I'd like to see more of this style reach the stores.
Very inspi(red) Wendy. You deserve the kudos!
Very original work, Wendy!
You are very talented are certainly seem to have your own distinctive style!
Keep it up!
Oh, and you've got my vote - for sure!
Cheers!
Thank you all so much for your kind words. They are very appreciated. I have gotten so much already from being part of this competition. In volatile times you've brought me early holiday joy. Cheers.
Wow!! So cute! I think I will be buying this one regardless of if it will win or not.. and a PNW native? My, my, my! I will just have to make sure I tell the girls I work with at Hallmark to pick this one up and start sharing the news ^_^
