A fun Christmas Card with the greeting in Scots and three Scandinavian gnomes, wearing tall hats, stripy clothing in red and green and they all have very long, white beards. They are known as 'tomte' in Sweden, 'nissa' in Denmark and Norway, and 'tonttu' in Finland. Legend has it that they live in remote farmhouses and make sure the farmer looks after his livestock and keeps his farm clean. At Christmas they appreciate a bowl of porridge with a knob of butter on top. There is a snowy background and below the gnomes is the greeting, 'A BLYTH YULE' in red lettering. The inside is left blank for your own message.
