Shrimp Christmas Cards for When You Shrimply Want to Say Happy Holidays

Shrimp Christmas Cards from Concertina Press Made in Florida
These shrimp Christmas cards are perfect for a beach Christmas in Florida. I designed them with an antique science illustration of a shrimp. Anyone who has ever prepared fresh shrimp or seen them in an aquarium knows what long antennae they have. When I was brainstorming ideas for a new Florida-themed shrimp Christmas card my friend Ellen was the one who came up with the idea of decking the halls...er...antennae with colorful Christmas lights! "Maybe that's too hard", she commented. Well, I'm always up for a challenge! I digitally restored a beautiful antique shrimp illustration collected in 1908 by a scientific expedition and added in the colorful lights one by one.

Each folded 4.25"x5.5" card in this set of 8 says "I shrimply wanted to say Happy Holidays!" inside and is sure to put a smile on the face of whoever you send it to! They are printed in the USA and come with red envelopes (also made in the USA!)

You can find these on my website and also in my etsy shop:

Funny Narwhal Christmas Cards

Funny Narwhal Christmas Cards from Concertina Press
Looking for some adorable nautical Christmas cards to send to friends and family this holiday season? Look no further - you can "Deck the Narwhals with boughs of holly" this winter with my Narwhal Christmas Cards.

They are available as individual cards and also in packs of 8 at a reduced price. They're great for anyone who loves a good pun (or maybe anyone who claims to hate them but secretly loves them...you know who you are!) They're printed on a lovely, lightly textured "linen" cardstock with beautiful vivid color - I get them printed locally here in Florida and the paper and envelopes are made in the USA, too!

I created this design using the same 200 year old narwhal illustration featured in my Narwhal Notecards:
...only this time, he's bringing holiday cheer with a holly wreath!

Did you know that a narwhal's tusk, which can grow up to NINE FEET LONG, are thought to be a sensory organ that helps the male narwhal sense chemical and physical changes to the water they live in? The tusk is actually a front left tooth!
"The narwhal is the only example documented where teeth are shown to have the ability to constantly sense environmental stimuli that would not necessarily be considered a threat," he said.
"If you were looking for an ideal and fascinating tooth to study there's no question this would be it." - BBC Nature - Narwhal's Tusk is Super Sensitive
It also happens to be perfect for delivering a beautiful holly wreath!
