My Gnome Christmas for 2020

My daughter and I got together at their Cabin summer home at the end of October for three days wherein the backgrounds were created, a few colored gnomes, and assembled nine completely. My goal was to get a good start on my Christmas cards using the Christmas Gnomes and the beautiful CTMH "Comfort and Joy" paperpack.  However, it stretched out to December even when I had spent time weekly on our Our Little Crop Group Zoom in getting the balance of these cards done... and I'm still not done.  

Now for the personal part... the inside sentiment and personal notes, and filling out the envelopes.  Now I'm in a time crunch and will have to complete at our next Zoom this weekend so they get out early enough for timely mailing.  

No card should be identical... If you see anything identical let me know... and you deserve a little gift for the first one that finds a duplicate.

Could it be the duplicate Gnomies are in the 4th set of pics and the 13th set of pics...He has a green and white stripe beanie with antlers....your Gnome cards are just too adorable!

Tanya, you are right... I didn't think I had any duplicate and I checked my cards and there was not two of the same, however, I must have taken a picture of the same card in another set because I didn't put it in the right pile after the first photo was taken. Wow, you really took a good look at them... please email me your address using the same email we use on our winner post in Double Trouble. CONGRATULATIONS!
