At the top of the Illustration Style image, "Merry Christmas"

At the bottom of the Illustration Style image, "From our cosy cottage to next door—purrs, peace, and borrowed sugar."

Hand-drawn illustration with fine linework and textured brush strokes in a cute, warm mood: a snug cottage interior with a big window framing a snowy village street. In the foreground, a couple cuddle on a window seat under a knitted blanket, clinking mugs of cocoa; heart-shaped steam curls up. An evergreen garland with berries and tiny fairy lights drapes over the window.

Outside the window: twinkling lights strung between neighboring cottages, smoke curling from chimneys, a glowing lamppost, a church spire, and neighbours at a picket fence cheerfully swapping a tin of cookies. Soft flakes fall; footprints connect doorsteps to emphasize neighbourly warmth.

Include exactly two cats: one tabby cat perched on the windowsill, playfully batting a dangling bauble; one black-and-white cat curled on a round rug by a small hearth, wearing a tiny red bow and watching the snow. Add subtle paw prints in the snow leading from one cottage to the next.

Color palette: candlelit golds, cranberry reds, pine greens, cocoa browns, and midnight blues with crisp snowy whites. Lighting: cozy interior glow spilling outward against the cool twilight. Balanced composition using the window frame as a natural border, expressive faces, and charming details.

Typography: hand-letter the headline in a warm, flowing script with a soft frosted edge; set the punch-line in small playful lettering with tiny star and paw accents.

Generated with these themes: Neighbours, couple in cottage with village view, one tabby cat and one black and white cat, and .
