The scene unfolds in a cozy, snow-dusted woodland clearing, where two endearing Shih Tzus, Max and Bella, are the stars of this Christmas tale. These playful pups are donning festive attire; Max sports a red and green plaid scarf with tiny jingle bells that twinkle in the winter sunlight, while Bella is snug in a fluffy, white earmuff set with a little red bow on top. They are seated beside a rustic wooden sleigh, its runners etched with intricate swirls reminiscent of Aubrey Beardsley's delicate lines.

In the background, a picturesque snow-covered cottage peeks through the trees, its roof laden with fluffy snow. Chimney smoke curls upwards, adding a hint of warmth inspired by Norman Rockwell’s homely touches. Icicles hang like crystal chimes from the cottage's eaves. The sky is a vivid Maxfield Parrish blue, dotted with plump white clouds, each shaped like a whimsical creature from a Maurice Sendak story.

In the heart of this winter wonderland, the Shih Tzus have been busy with a surprise— a snow sculpture that spells out "John and Beth" in elegant, swirling letters. This snow-crafted tribute is adorned with holly leaves and bright red berries, their vividness contrasting beautifully against the snowy canvas, capturing a touch of Arthur Rackham's attention to detail. A garland of fairy lights, with twinkling hues that echo Gustave Doré's magical chiaroscuro, weaves through the sculpture, casting a warm glow.

Above, in the branches of a grand old pine tree, Quentin Blake-style birds perch, their feathers ruffled against the chill, holding tiny sprigs of mistletoe. In the foreground, a charming Christmas tea set has been arranged on a rustic wooden table, complete with steaming mugs, a snowman-shaped teapot, and a plate of gingerbread cookies shaped like the Shih Tzus themselves—each with a distinctive icing face reflecting their real-world charm.

This enchanting Christmas card cover blends storytelling and artistry, inviting John and Beth into a delightful seasonal narrative as unique as it is heartwarming.
