"Snowman"

Released in the Canada,
United Kingdom*, Australia*, Singapore*, Greece*, South Korea, Hong Kong, Thailand, Russia & Japan are the new Christmas/Holiday Starbucks Cards for 2010. North America had an official release date of of November 16th, 2010.
The top image is "Snowman", a fun remembrance of anyone's childhood rolling snow into balls and building "people" in your front yard. Made with tree twigs for the arms, and a carrot for the nose, this Card is a wonderful addition to the Christmas/Holiday series.
The bottom image is labeled "Christmas Tree", not to be confused with the "Christmas Tree" issue in 2005 with the same name. This design reflects a bright yellow tree in for foreground with a dove finishing off the decorations, but most likely the dove is carrying a olive branch. This of course symbolizes peace with a more Christian theme. That said, a third issue will be available in North America only called "Hanukkah" for Jewish gifting. This is the first time a Starbucks Card has been made/released for the Jewish religion and Hanukkah. SPECIAL NOTE: Starbucks has in years past had various retail items made for the Jewish religion, including coffee packaged as Holiday Blend (same as Christmas Blend) and other various retail items.
Note: The Canadian version has English/French on the reverse. Hong Kong has English/Chinese. South Korea has Korean only and Russia is Russian only.
*The United Kingdom, including Ireland, Singapore, Greece and Australia released the Christmas Tree Card only.
