Christmas cards inspired by Woodstock's historic Square.
Few places look more like a holiday card than the Woodstock Square in December, lit up with thousands of white lights around the historic district.
I design custom Christmas cards for Woodstock families and businesses, from classic photo cards to illustrated scenes of the Square.
The Lighting of the Square opens the season in late November with Santa's arrival, Dickens carolers, and Woodstock Willie, followed by a Christmas parade.
Famously, the lights stay up through Groundhog Days in early February. Woodstock stood in for Punxsutawney in the 1993 film "Groundhog Day," and the town celebrates it every winter.

Common questions
Can you illustrate the Woodstock Square on my card?
Yes. A custom illustration of the Square is a special keepsake, and it pairs well with a family photo on the back of a flat card.
Can I send cards after Christmas?
Sure. Plenty of people send New Year's cards, and in Woodstock the lights stay up well into winter, so a late card fits right in.
