Description

The card foregrounds a collage of Father Christmas, a squarely-rounded church, and bells on evergreen. The tower of the church is in the upper right of the card with golden light shining out the windows. To the left is Father Christmas in a brown hooded coat, carrying a lighted and decorated tree in his right hand. Below the church to the right is a bunching of snowy evergreen branches with two large golden bells attached. Below the main scene is a smaller depiction of a house and snow-covered lawn. The background of the card fades from royal blue with gold stars at the top to cloudy white at the bottom, where it reads "A Happy Christmas."
