Christmas Cards

i don't think i will send one..since my daughter and son will be going home this Christmas and my brother is just 15 kilometers away from my home and usually they spend their Christmas eve with us..

I have no idea what we'll be doing this year. Last year I ordered photo cards from walmart. My mom took a picture of us in front of our christmas tree and then I uploaded it to walmart.com. i could pick a different christmas theme to go around our picture and add a message on the side. They print them up and then send them with their own envelopes. So all i had to do was address them and send them out. It was nice and didn't really cost that much. But this year we are so broke I don't know what we are going to do. I don't think people will mind if we just don't send them out a card this year.

We do not send out a lot of Christmas cards at all these days. We certanly do not send cards to those family and friends we will be spending some time with on Christmas Day. We do take the opportunity to include an update of our news when we send the Christmas Cards to friends we will not be seeing. My partner used to do this long before she met me in fact and once we became a couple, she suggested I started doing it as well. So now sometimes she types it up and other times I do but we always add a personal handwritten bit onto each "letter". In the past few years we have noticed that a number of our friends also do the same sort of thing, so it is kind of catching. I appreciate getting the news from friends because although they might have mentioned something to me, it can be so easily forgotten. At least the annual news update keeps us in contact with each other. We actually posted/mailed out our Christmas Cards today. This year we send 18 from memory and each of them was to a friend who does not live in the same area or district as we do.

lol..i think i won't sending out any cards to my friends.But i will send blessing christmas message to them^-^

I think a christmas card not costing much.sending a catd to others just expressed your best wishes for him or her,when someone received the card he or she must very happy and at the same time wish you will be happy andluck

To tell the truth, I have never sent the Christmas cards, you may be astonished, it's easy,because I come from China, therefore, we don't send cards to each other. OK,best wishes to you!

i generally send cards to people i dont see that much and to those that dont have the internet. i would like to send a pic of our daughters (ages 15 and 11) but will have to get busy on that. i will not send out that many because it costs 52 cents here in canada for a first class stamp!

This year I have actually done more cards. I started working this year and become more acquainted with people. Not close enough to be with us on Christmas, but still like to let them know I am thinking of them. Also I was on a Christmas card list for a site I am on. We sent each other cards with a little freebie in it. I send one to my aunt because she usually sends me one. I don't put pictures in those. I send one to my sister, dad, and grandfather and they get the recent school pictures of us. They live very far away and I never see then during the holidays. I got a pack of cards from the kids fundraisers and some samplers that I got, so that didn't really cost anything I hadn't already spent. Just the stamps really. The old cards can be reused in crafts and stuff for the kids. LOL I got a really cool card from someone where you can plant the card after and flowers will grow. COOL!

I am only sending out cards to those that I get cards from this year. I have only received two so far one from my half sister and one from my husbands grandma. I really don't expect to get many cards this year. I do get emails from people wishing Merry Christmas.

Oh.. rats... I really should be sending those off, shouldn't I? Ugh.

I haven't sent cards for years now. I used to send fruit to family out of town(not this year) and I always have the rest of the family over for Christmas eve dinner. I do the traditional dinner that has been passed down on my mothers side. It costs about 350.00. This year I'll be really struggling to do it. It's something that I love to do for my family and wouldn't skip it for anything.

I might send out a couple, only to our out of state family members. My mom, his mom, my best friend, maybe my sister. Otherwise everyone gets text messages and emails. Maybe a phone call. We're still debating on the photo idea.

I think sending email or E-greeting cards is more cheaper than sending greeting cards on a hard copy. Before I am making personal greeting cards for my friends and family but sending abroad is expensive so I do it in email.

I have to agree that E-Cards are the most practical thing to give a love one today... but if you want to be more romantic, then why not make a card and send it to your loveone....

I am not going to be sending a whole lot of cards out this year. I never do. I don't normally get that many either. I had not planned on adding any photos to the ones that I do send.

My husband has a large family and we usually send out to his family and mine, which isn't all that large - only have my Mother and 2 brothers. We don't send out to nieces and nephews. But I haven't bought any cards this year, so don't know if I'll send out any this year other than to my Mother and my 2 kids.
