Little Tegan Syndod has had some quick photoshoots with me over the last few days. I hope that you like the result as well!

Here is the picture without the "Merry Christmas to you!" message.

I would like to donate any extra money towards those rescues that are already full to bursting before the annual Christmas dump of unwanted piggies is coming into full swing. As it stands, a card would cost about 55-60p (plus postage), so anything extra would go to a forum rescue. I will do this only if there is enough interest and can hopefully get a slightly better deal if there is a lot of interest.
 
Sqweeeeeeeeeeeeee...
That is adorable....!
And a lovely idea... I'd be tempted by a few cards with that cutie on...!

Hi Wiebke....boooo, I've already bought all my guinea pig Christmas cards, but I just wanted to say how adorable little Tegan Syndod is! And what a lovely picture; how on earth did you get her to stay still for so long.....my youngest sow (about 140 weeks) has the nick-name 'Rocket Socks' for a very good reason! :))

You could always get some for next year... ;)
 
Yes please, I'll have some - and I always get extra for next year too.
 
I think what I am going to do is sell 5 cards for £3.50 (or 10 cards for £7) plus postage if I get enough interest for a run of at least 100 cards.
 
Oooh I feel like I'm missing out not being able to see the pic...can the link be fixed?
 
Sadly, my life has gone from already pretty chaotic to completely haywire over the last few weeks (including me having to go out of the country for a week on short notice).

In view of the timings and logistics becoming too tight for me to manage under the circumstances, I have come to the conclusion that it would be better if I launch the cards well in time next autumn. I apologise.

On the other hand, I have been able able to take some more great shots... so I hope that you will enjoy being able to buy a selection of Tegan cards next year!

Sadly, my mother-in-law has ended up in hospital yet again after a couple of very difficult weeks at home; which is the main reason why any planning has gone right out of the window. :(

:( so sorry to hear this Wiebke. If I can be of any help for signposting/advice just give me a PM (I'm an OT so often deal with cases like this and making decisions on whether someone is safe to go home etc) obviously I don't know your MIL but I might be able to tell you the things they should be looking at within the hospital! It's not good that she has bounced back in so quickly. Not to worry if you feel you have all the advice though - hopefully they are a good hospital. Big hugs!
 
Oh gosh, she is so cuuuute! I would buy one and frame it:))
Oh didn't see the last bit, sorry to hear about your mum in law :(
 
awwwwwww omg they are just fantabulous, please definately save some for me next year.

Hope things get better soon, what a rubbish time of year Christmas can be :(

Unfortunately, due to a family emergency, I cannot run the card this year, but I will have selection of my best Tegan shots printed in aid of rescues next year well on time. I am very sorry for this.
 
These cards are brilliant. I would love some for next year please. Just let me know how I pay you.

Lentil - 'Marry me Nerys?' wheeeekk

Hope you M-I-L feels better soon xx
 
Making them into blank notecards with envelopes rather than Christmas cards would be brilliant. I'd love a pack if you did that.
