The Christmas card illustration is set in a whimsical, snowy village square illuminated by a kaleidoscope of festive lights strung between quaint, half-timbered cottages. In the foreground, an ornately decorated Christmas tree stands proudly, its branches festooned with vintage baubles, candy canes, and twinkling fairy lights that reflect off the snow like tiny stars. A snowman wearing an exaggeratedly large top hat and a red-and-white striped scarf, reminiscent of Beatrix Potter's whimsical attire, joyfully holds a sign that reads "Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!" in flamboyant, swirling calligraphy inspired by Aubrey Beardsley's intricate designs.

Nearby, a group of animated woodland creatures, including a dapper fox in a velvet waistcoat and a hedgehog with a miniature Santa hat, engage in a playful snowball fight, their expressions reminiscent of Quentin Blake's lively characters. Above, the sky is a deep Maxfield Parrish blue, where a jolly, moonlit Santa Claus, drawn with the detailed touch of Norman Rockwell, flies across the sky in a sleigh pulled by reindeer with antlers as intricate as Arthur Rackham's line work.

In the corner, children dressed in old-fashioned winter attire, complete with woolen mittens and buttoned coats, slide gleefully down a gentle hill on wooden toboggans, their laughter almost audible as puffs of white steam in the crisp air. A charming little café, designed with nods to N.C. Wyeth's love for cozy interiors, entices passersby with the glow from its frosted windows, offering a peek at patrons sipping mugs of hot cocoa. This bustling scene, full of detail and character, perfectly encapsulates the festive cheer of "Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!" in a storybook manner.
