About this subject

A Christmas greeting card built around a six-pointed star frame. Inside the star is a snowy village scene with a snow-covered house and church tower, a horse-drawn sleigh on a snowy road, and a figure below carrying an armload of holly; the star is wreathed in holly leaves and red berries with gold stars above and gold rays below.
