How the Dutch Do Christmas Cards

My neighbor is of Dutch heritage and I have come to know about some of her country's traditions. One is creating and exchanging elaborate Christmas cards, like the one pictured above.
Here's another one, involving collage and stitchery.
Here's some of the fine detail. It is a lovely custom and a nice reminder of holiday heritage. Thanks to my neighbor for sharing!

    Did you neighbor give you any indication if they do anything with the cards? I get beautiful cards, and throw them out. Would love to know if there is anyone who does anything with them.
