My Poor Christmas Cards

I decided to get combined Christmas & birth announcement cards.  I didn’t want to send birth announcement cards as I see them as sort of fishing for gifts, which I don’t want to do.  I made this:

The cards arrived today & look like this:

Not good.  I have ordered them from somewhere else as they have [...]
