A St. Lucia card with a warmer, more intimate scene. It shows a young child with reddish-brown hair wearing the traditional Lucia crown of green leaves and lit white candles, in a cozy kitchen setting, actively preparing saffron buns (lussekatter) - the traditional golden, S-shaped pastries associated with St. Lucia Day. A cozy candle-lit kitchen with a rustic wooden table. A girl in Lucia robes bakes saffron buns (lussekatter), with soft snow falling outside a frosted window. Steam rises from a cup of glögg. Warm, hygge, nostalgic Scandinavian winter scene. Through the window, you can see snow falling in the dark winter night, creating a perfect contrast between the warm, golden interior and the cold winter outside. The text reads: "GOLDEN BUNS, WARM LIGHT, AND THE HUSH OF SNOW - LUCIA'S BLESSINGS ARE SOFT BUT STRONG."
