"Ariel's Christmas Surprise" (arixmas.gif, 503x890x2, 18486 bytes) is
the 55th in a continuing series of fine Disney fanart drawings by Bob
Ito <ito@[...]> and the 21st in the so-called
"Bucketland Cards" series of handmade greeting cards, "when you're too
cheap to buy a card."

Ariel and her father, King Triton, have taken time out of their busy
schedules (busy??  Of course, posing for the Itoraptor!) to put out a
special Christmas season tribute.

This is a handmade Christmas card that Bob made and sent out to his
Christmas card list.  The card came as a foldout, and is divided into
the following sections:

    left:    front of card
    right:   inside foldout
    center:  The "back" of the card (The "Bucketland logo")  [smile]
    bottom:  inside" of card

As with all "Bucketland Cards," all personal messages have been deleted
from the image.
