Christmas cards always hard to find here

Dear Valerie,
 I am going to send you the jpg files of the cards we produce and sell to raise money for the church and the charities it supports (many charities - you can find them on our website).
At our church services we sell the cards at €1 each, envelope included. If we are asked to mail them we add on for the cost of postage.
The cards have been professionally printed in Edinburgh. Their designer is Elise Johnston. This is her abbreviated biography.

Elise Johnston is a professional artist from Scotland.  She is a graduate of the Edinburgh College of Art and is a qualified art teacher.
She has lived and worked in Scotland, USA, France and Nigeria. The family has had a house in the Tarn since 1986 and now live there permanently.
As an artist and craftswoman, Elise has worked in the fields of fashion design (illustrated in Vogue), ceramics, book illustration, painting and mosaic. She has made over 50 mosaics, some very large, on buildings in three countries. One of the cards - "Peace on Earth"-  is an illustration of part of one of her mosaics.

 Hello Robin
I have added a selection of cards but when I  printed them all they took up all the front page. Can I suggest  readers if you would like to support the church by buying cards, you check them out on their website.
