Christmas will be here before you know it (75 days officially) and Happy Cactus Designs is excited to share the new collection of holiday and Christmas cards!
Some new holiday cards debuted at the National Stationery Show in May, and I released another batch of designs to retailers this summer. Now, I'm excited to share them with you! You can check out the entire collection, plus our best-selling favorites, here.

I'm excited to share the latest releases from Happy Cactus Designs with you! Once I returned from the Stationery Show and settled back into my normal routines, I got to work doodling, drawing, and brainstorming ideas for new cards. It was so nice to get back in the creative groove. One downside to all of the preparation for NSS is that there's little time for creative work, so it was wonderful to be able to just draw again.
What resulted was a new collection of cheerful and fun cards that I'm really proud of. I'm also quite excited about additional Christmas cards I developed. Designing holiday cards when it is 100 degrees outside is always a challenge! They will be available for sale soon (I feel like the holidays will be here before we know it!).
Retailers can view all of the new releases along with our existing collection in our catalog here, or contact us at hello{at}happycactusdesigns.com for a hard copy and sample.

This week's Christmas song inspired doodle comes from one of my favorite holiday tunes - Walking in a Winter Wonderland. This doodle is best viewed while listening to the Bing Crosby version!

I don't know about you, but my Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter feeds have been exploding with photos of friends decorating their homes for Christmas. Central to these photos: Christmas lights! Beautifully lit trees and houses were the inspiration for this week's card - Merry Christmas Lights - which has quickly become one of our best-selling holiday cards.
My goal for this card was to create a fun, festive, and colorful design that captures the holiday spirit.
You can pick up boxed sets of Merry Christmas Lights here. With Christmas only 3 weeks away it's time to get busy sending out holiday cards!

Happy Cactus is excited to take part in the Dallas Flea tomorrow, December 1, from 9:00am to 1:00pm at the South Side on Lamar in downtown Dallas.
After I did the Flea for the first time in September, I had such a great time I was eager to participate in their holiday Flea! We'll have plenty of Christmas and Hanukkah cards on hand, as well as tons of sticker gift tags and other fun stocking stuffers. There are tons of other wonderful local vendors there and it's a great place to get a lot of holiday shopping done. Hope to see you there!
