You have now created the perfect Christmas card and a lovely recipient list with everyone who cares deeply for you; there are just a few more details or additions you may want to add to elevate your design! These features are all optional, but they certainly enhance the theme of your design and make for a one-of-a-kind card!
Envelope liners fit perfectly into your envelopes and tie together the theme of your Christmas card suite. They are customizable and can match your design or feature you and your spouse’s monogram! Regardless of your style, these liners are a fabulous touch that truly elevates your Christmas card!
Adding foil to text on your design adds gorgeous detail to your card! The shiny foil glistens and adds a texture to the layout that uniquely enhances the Christmas theme. While foil is optional, it truly is a stunning detail that you may want to include on your Christmas cards this season!
The design of your card remains the same but choosing the type of card is a particular aspect of your Christmas card suite. We have postcards, magnets, and typical Christmas cards as well. A postcard is an exy-std-spacing cellent option for those shopping on a budget to save postage and is an attractive option for this season! A magnet is a fun and unique option and makes great memorabilia for your friends and family to hang up on their fridge! The classic Christmas card is exy-std-spacing cellent, and the possibilities do not end here. Different shapes, sizes, and paper choices make this option totally customizable! So many fabulous options make this decision one of the hardest!
And now that you created the most fabulous Christmas Card, there are so many more questions to be answered. Who can I send a Christmas card to? How can I save money? When do I send out a holiday card? We answer all these questions so that you don’t have to worry!
This is a question we hear all the time, and we ask ourselves too! Everyone loves sending and receiving Christmas cards. What a lovely tradition that connects loved ones far and wide! Hearing from long-distance friends and family is a treat every single holiday season. But who should you send a card to? Friends from college? Co-workers? How distant of relatives should receive a card? We understand the stress of choosing who will receive your Christmas card, so here are a few tips for Christmas card etiquette:
Whether these loved ones attend your wedding or not, everyone loves an update after the wedding! This sweet gesture is a great way to combine a warm wishing of Merry Christmas and reach out to loved ones following a significant life event! Cousins, grandparents, aunts, uncles, everyone near and far will appreciate being thought of this Christmas season!
While this seems obvious, there are many types of friends. The bridesmaids and groomsmen from your wedding, college friends, family friends, childhood friends, and many in between, but who should you send a Christmas card to? No one absolutely can’t receive your card, but there are a few you don’t want to miss! The most obvious to remember are the beautiful people that stood by you at your wedding and all of your closest friends. The next group of friends you don’t want to leave out is your childhood friends. There is nothing sweeter than receiving a card from one of those friends that knows you so well and has known you for what feels like forever! Including these friends in your list is just so sweet! You can also pick a few of your favorite co-workers- the ones you just love to see each day at work will adore seeing the card you create! Past or present, co-workers love to be thought of during the holidays! Other friends to consider adding to your list would include those from church, a book club you are a part of, or family friends that know you so well! Regardless of who makes your Christmas card list, all recipients are sure to adore your lovely creation!
Your neighbors may be lucky enough to call you a friend and, in this case, may have already made the list! Whether you casually say hi when you walk your dogs or love having wine night together on the weekends, sending a Christmas card to your neighbor is a polite gesture! Christmas is an exy-std-spacing cellent opportunity to reach out to new neighbors if you and your new spouse have recently moved into a new neighborhood!
Spending hours in a hair salon each year can certainly make the two of you close, and reaching out with a Christmas card is such a kind idea! There are so many wonderful people in your life who work alongside you in many different ways. Holiday cards allow you to encourage others during the holidays, so these people will undoubtedly love a kind gesture from you! This may include your doctors, dentists or orthodontists, hair stylists, nail techs, dog groomers, massage therapists, chiropractors, or anyone else you have worked with! A Christmas card is a beautiful way to say thank you for everything they so graciously do for you!
