Hi! It's your hosts, Lily and Z (yes, the human has pulled out the stash of Christmas sweaters...luckily she doesn't have enough for everyone yet...) with this year's stash of Christmas cards.
The human might have fallen behind with her card-sending this year, but we haven't. It really is customary for us to use an old-fashioned fountain pen and real ink in a bottle to write our cards, like the human does. It's only a matter of time before the calligraphy and manuscript illumination classes start again.
This year, we have 12 miniature Tasha Tudor cards, depicting old-fashioned Christmas in rural New England. Having spent some time in central VT with the human, the churches-in-a-town-square-covered-with-snow cards are SPOT ON. These cards are all miniaturized versions of vintage Caspari cards, with the same message the real card would have had inside.
