Very much could be either. I think I'd have to see it, and it would depend on whether the nuns were drawn positively/sympathetically (which doesn't preclude it being a funny card) and enjoying themselves, or drawn in a way that implied the concept of nuns was inherently worthy of ridicule.
On a related note, I am finding it really difficult this year to find "subtly Christian" Christmas cards. As a Christian with many non-Christian friends and relatives, I like to send cards which are primarily cute and secondarily Christian, e.g. little cartoony shepherds and angels. But this year all I've seen in the shops are cards on the theme of parties and drinking and stuff, or cards which look like icons, with pious haloed Mary and Jesus on. Nothing in between.
