Description

The card's tone is warm, created by the gold and orange background. In the foreground are Father Christmas and three children. Father Christmas stands to the left, dressed in a long purple coat and carrying a basket with a doll and a stick in his left hand. To the right is a table with a decorated and lighted Christmas tree on top. Behind the table two older children, a boy and girl, are seated. In the front of the table, a younger girl is standing with her hands outstretched to receive presents from Father Christmas. There are already some toys such as a toy house and ball on the table. The bottom of the card contains a handwritten message in a language that is not English.
