Featured Series: Santa’s Sweet Ride
This month’s featured series, Santa’s Sweet Ride by Tammy Haddix, celebrates its 10th and final year in 2016.
Santa’s Sweet Ride
10th and Final in the series.
Santa’s Sweet Reindeer
Limited Edition
“This one was for my mom,” Tammy Haddix says of her Santa’s Sweet Ride series. “Not everyone knows this, but Santa’s hat is made out of an icing tip–a nod to her cake decorating.”
Lots of candies and sweets have gone into the making of each year’s ornament, as Tammy figured out how to craft each part of Santa’s annual vehicle. She has used everything from wafer cookies and fruit-striped gum to candy canes.
And while Santa’s Sweet Ride is coming to an end in 2016, you can be sure Tammy has lots of ideas for Santa in the works for the future!

Three exclusive Hallmark Keepsake Ornament designs, a pair of itty bittys® plush, and the first-ever Hallmark Squeelys vinyl collectible figure will be sold in limited quantities at Comic-Con International, to be held July 21-24 in San Diego, Calif.:
U.S.S.
