Ding dong merrily on Mumsnet - the cards have been printed, they're in HQ and all we need now is to sell them! Full details of how to order and pay here. Ginormous thanks again to everyone who contributed. Large helpings of egg nog yule log all round.

I wonder how many of us will receive one of these cards from a friend, not knowing they are mners and then desperately try and work out who they are.
They are really fab btw 
Only the one in the pic - but you can download versions of the others [http://www.mumsnet.com/xmas/ here]]
You have to put [[ ]] for the link to work.
Your welcome.

oh I like that donkey one
have ordered some and well done for charity choice they do wonderful work
Great card and it was the one I voted for but I am now not sure .
If you recieved one of these cards from someone whose ds's had those names would you think it was a wee bit odd or just marvellous luck 
And should I have called them Jesus so they stood out a bit more at school 
I've just ordered 2 packs and think they're fantastic - but am now fretting about my Christian friends. If I send it to the wife of a Baptist minister will she ever speak to me again?

Mumsnet you've got the fully coloured versions of all the others now, so couldn't people download them finished, if they wanted to, rather than the black and white?
<applauds Boco, illustrator extraordinaire!>
Ahem, Hassled - as the wife of a Baptist minister, I think it's very funny. 
Mind you, I voted for the PFB one ...

MNHQ - How much of the £7.50 goes to the charity?

I see it says all the money raised goes to the cahrity...... are Mumsnet swallowing the cost of postage, commissioning and printing?

Oh how fantastic the money is going to kids co!
No that means all the proceeds really
Pack of 20 cards and envelopes costs 2.64 to produce, and 1.94 to send. So net to charity is £2.92 per pack
We are swallowing the cost of paypal transaction, the envelopes we send them out, and the admin, mainly because our brains are too small to work out what that cost would be.
.
The main risk is that we don't sell them - we've done a print run of 10 000 (to get the best price!)
So please do order away!
Justine, is it automated, or you and your mum at the kitchen table?
because my Paypal has the wrong bloody address on it - can I email you my new one please? <idiot emoticon>
Automated - I wish! (I think Alexia may flounce
)
If you email us the right address quick we can fix.
Boco [and everyone else!] all the colour versions now here
Have emailed you Justine, will buy you a drink tomorrow

Justine - thanks for clarifying.
These are brilliant!
However, I am so irritatingly efficient I've already bought my Christmas cards. In the spirit of Christmas and sucking up to Mumsnet I will buy some tomorrow to send to those of my friends most likely to get it!
