Stop-motion Christmas card

An animated Christmas card I made for my wife. It's my first stop-motion project, so it's a little rough, but not bad for a first try.

The music clip is from the song "Merry Christmas, I Love You," which is on James Brown's Funky Christmas. I don't (of course) own the rights to the song, but I didn't intend any copyright infringement, and it's brief enough that I think the law's on my side. If you want to hear the full song, it's posted on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-f1eWF63wQ (which is where I got it).

I took the pictures using a little Canon digital camera, and I put them all together using Windows Movie Maker. I downloaded the sound effects for free from various websites I found through Google, and I put them together using Cakewalk Music Creator 4.
