Who knew February could be so weird?

Some examples: You can celebrate Bubble Gum Day (first Friday of the month), Humpback Whale Awareness Month, International Embroidery Month, Jell-O Week (second week of the month), International Polar Bear Day (Feb. 27), or National Tooth Fairy Day (Feb. 28), among other weird holidays.

Check out the list of bizarre February holidays on Checkiday (my personal favorite), HolidayInsights or TimeandDate. If you have another reference source, feel free to use it. Choose any 3 holidays or commemorative weeks/months, and create 3 different ATCs that celebrate the weirdness.

I would like to join this swap. Not sure if this is where to do it.

Curiosity
 
I haven’t started my cards for this swap yet, but after looking at the Checkiday website, I think the hard part is going to be narrowing it down to just a few cards. I have so many ideas for fun ways to illustrate quite a few of these weird holidays.

I was having the same problem! 😅 I think I have it down to 5 or 6...figured I'd make them all and see which ones come out best.

Believe it or not, I have an idea for Cow Milked While Flying in anAirplane Day. Other than that, I’m still trying to decide which ones to do.
