Christmas is fast approaching. In addition to gifts, good food and relaxation, Christmas also includes kind words and best wishes for your loved ones. In the digital age, anyone who is still one of the almost 64% of Germans who traditionally send Christmas greetings to family and friends by letter or postcard often asks themselves the question: Which of the thousands of different Christmas cards should I take?
The selection in stores is overwhelming, but this year how about something a little more personal? We have collected a few ideas for you on how to design your Christmas greeting cards so that they are sure to put a sparkle in the recipient's eyes.
Do you send Christmas cards on behalf of the whole family? Then you can personalize it with the most beautiful family photos, for example. After choosing an image and a card design, leave the result simplewith a provider like CEWEprint professionally. This is a perfect option for those who are short on time but want their Christmas card not to get lost in the crowd.
If you have enough time and patience, you can also make the cards yourself: with a little skill, sharp scissors and a large piece of sturdy cardboard, you can create real pieces of jewelry. Additionally, get a glue stick, colorful scraps of paper and a small ball of yarn or some felt and let yourselfinspired by our craft ideas.
Gluing and coloring are by no means reserved exclusively for the little ones - adults can also have a lot of fun. By making greeting cards together, the whole family gets in the mood for Christmas and can send the creative results the next day.
The traditional postal route offers a major advantage over sending messages electronically: you can send more than just texts and images. How about a little Christmas scent? In addition to the card, simply put a few needles from your Christmas tree in the letter. Or send a few cloves or dried orange peels to accompany the card. The paper takes on the smell and as soon as you open the envelope you get that very special Christmas feeling.
