We voted too late to mail our ballots in, so I had to drop them off in the dropbox, which means I got TWO of these amazing gila monster stickers.
Gilamonster voter by Sara H... it has a gila monster with lots of i voted stickers on it and this yellow sign in the shape of Arizona that says "I voted today" but mostly it's just v cute and also lizards are awesome

My version of watercolor vs. the cover of the kit. I guess I like my leaves more supernatural!

I wish @100soft.bsky.social would bring this one back! nobody could complain it's too christmasty, lol.
it's a dumpster fire with some ornaments on the snow, and a tree burning in the dumpster

more winter but at least there is a tree and hearts. or something.
a card with a tree where the leaves are hearts and some of the hearts are floating in the air. it looks snowy and has a white background but the hearts are colorful. it says "peace hope love" in cursive script

ooh more snowflakes but my theme this year was "sparkle" and I liked that it was giving sparkle without getting glitter all over people's floors
a card with five snowflakes, silver and green and blue; you can't tell from the picture but it's actually a bit raised. looks sparkly without glitter, very pretty.

one year I gave up and sent New Year's cards but they still look like ornaments and snowflakes lol
a card saying "bye bye 2020" with a person and a mask for the final zero, and "happy new year 2021" with 1 being a raised fist. there are strings with ornaments, two of which have snowflakes

also a bit christmasy. or a bit wintery. or both.
this card says "tis the season to be merry" and there's a fox and a bird and a bunny and a bunch of snow and a snowman with a scarf and it's got lots of red and a touch of green this one has three silver deer standing on snow with white trees and a blue background and a gold moon

this one is very desert-y but I was told a bit too Christmas-y for people who don't celebrate Christmas at all (like me! i'm more of a tag-along. and yes I'm sensitive to this!)
two snowmen, one with a green scarf and red hat, one with a red scarf and green hat, saying "don't worry, they say it's a dry heat!" there are saguaros and agaves and mountains and a desert landscape background

nobody complained about these snowpeople and things but it felt weird sending these from Phoenix, Arizona

As a Jew living in the desert, every year it gets harder and harder to find holiday cards that are not too Christmasy and not too wintery.

I think these got the closest.
a man made out of three marshmallows with pretzel legs and arms and a candy corn nose and chocolate buttons and smile and eyes floating in hot chocolate in a red mug saying "warm winter wishes" four marshmallow peeps that look sort of like snowmen, with pretzel arms and feet, red icing scarves, black icing eyes and smiles and buttons, orange icing noses. one is doing a handstand. they're in the snow. the card says "holiday happiness"
