Making characters for cards can be fun. Several people have asked for a video on how I made the pirate characters on my 2023 pirate ship birthday card. These characters were inspired by ones John Watterson had made and shown on Karen Burniston’s Facebook Pop-Up Peeps page. Here is a video showing how I made them.
