The crisp chill of winter is in the air. Colorful lights twinkle and dance on both sides of the path as you make your way to Dodo Airlines. Upon entering the little building next to the dock, you are met with warmth and the soft notes of holiday music. Stepping over to the counter, you browse the various postcards on offer.
Unfortunately, none of them feel quite right for that special someone: the neighbor who always cheers you up when you're feeling down, who feels comfortable enough to barge into your home unannounced, the one who worked their way into your heart until you can't imagine life without them.
It's going to take something unique and heartfelt, something tailored specifically for them, to truly show them how much they mean to you. With this in mind, you rush back home to begin a new project.
Design a holiday greeting card for your favorite Animal Crossing villager. The card may represent any major December holiday or Toy Day!
You may create your card digitally or traditionally, but all cards must include both an interior and an exterior and the artwork must be your own. Post your completed card in this thread along with a visible username by Tuesday, December 24th at 11:59 PM EST.

FAQs
Q: Does my card have to be themed around a holiday?
A: Yes, but you may choose any of the major holidays that take place in December: Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or Solstice. If none of these are ideal, you may theme your card around Toy Day! (Also, if I have unintentionally left off a holiday that's important to you, please let me know.)
Share joy, peace, and love this holiday season!
