Summary
A white New Year card. On the front it has printed the words 'All Good Luck In The New Year'. All of the words except the 'Luck' are printed in very decorative writing, which represents leaves and branches and has blue flowers on all of them. The word 'Luck' in in pink and is cut out around it. Around this is what looks like snow and has some white glitter on. There is a blue card with a tassel on, binding it all together. There are two sheets of thin paper attached inside the card. The first has 'With all kind thoughts', printed on in silver-coloured ink, on the other side it has 'To' and 'From' printed on. On the second sheet of paper, the following is printed, 'Christmas pleasures day by day, Blossom round thy happy way, Making still where 'er thou art, Summer echoes in thy heart'.
