Place orders now for Christmas cards! All animals in hats all the time - from dogs and cats to turkeys and robins! 10 original designs on high quality card with envelopes. Hand folded by me and anyone else I can enlist to do my dirty work! Sneak peaks of designs to come, because Christmas can never come too early, right?

Brain Queen!
