Mumsnet Christmas Card - Vote here, vote now!

Following on from a marvellous thread about what a Mumsnet Christmas card would be like, we've stolen your brilliant ideas and asked our very own, newly discovered super-talented Boco to come up with some illustrations for them. Choose your fave and Boco has promised to colour in the winner so we can send it off to all our Mumsnet friends - Scheherezade, Tony P, Tana, Piers etc - just to make sure they've not forgotten us.

We'll also have them all available for you to send as festive e-cards, thereby saving you valuable pennies in these crunching times.

Remember Vote early, vote often and Merry Christmas, of course.

Boco what you did for little lapin is truly lovely. You are very talented anyway aside to that I'm no voting for the cards I don't like any of them. I know people who wouldn't like using the name Jesus in that way and also the rest are a bit to mumsy (birthing ball,choosing names...that's not all mumsnet's about.

Gosh i must be odd then

thought 'stop fat' was easily funniest!

oggsfrog · 11/11/2008 19:38

Brilliant!

I still think Coco's suggestion of Joseph writing a Zombie Plan was inspired

I too love the names one! - I would definitely buy a pack if these were to go on sale - my friends would love them all!

tatt · 11/11/2008 19:26

have voted for the birthing ball - appropriate for a parenting site.

nickytwotimes · 11/11/2008 19:26

Wonderful!

EdwardCullenCanHaveMySoul · 11/11/2008 19:24

Hysterical! Please make a shed load and let me buy a pack I know so many mums who would appreciate one!
Baby names got my vote - very mnet!

MrsMattie · 11/11/2008 19:20

They're all fab, but have voted for the PFB one (made me laugh out loud). Fantastic work, Boco. Whole thing is a great idea.

morningpaper · 11/11/2008 19:17

looks great Boco

VintageGardenia · 11/11/2008 19:01

Oh I actually wish I hadn't posted that it looks as if I'm criticising.

Boco I saw what you did for littlelapin and I was wondering if I could commission you to do something similar of my dogs for my ds for Christmas? If you are interested I am myvintagegardenia at gmail dot com.

BouncingTurtle · 11/11/2008 18:43

I voted for baby names... since one of the names is ds's
(No, it's not Jesus!)

VintageGardenia · 11/11/2008 18:30

Genius such lovely illustrations! I voted for baby names idea but think MNHQ could put a wise man name into the caption too? Jesus? Are you sure? You might find etc etc with something more traditional like Melchisidech.

OK OK I'm too late shoving my oar in.

Boco · 11/11/2008 18:24

Thank you!

I'm glued to the poll now! It's now how I thought it'd go at all.

funnypeculiar · 11/11/2008 18:20

Wow, Boco, loving your work

Boco!

They're fab

MmeLindt · 11/11/2008 18:13

They are great. Voted for the names one as I the others are very MN-insider jokes that I don't think that others will get. We could sent that one to Sarah Palin
