Christmas Tip #15: Give Personalised Christmas Cards

We just love personalised Christmas cards. And that's our 15th tip for a great Christmas.

Its just too easy to buy a pack of the cheapest cards from the supermarket but why don't you go to a little bit more expense and have some at the same time by creating some truly individual personalised Christmas cards this year?

Sites like ChristmasCards.uk.com allow you to do just that.

You can upload a cute photo of you and your wife, husband, girlfriend, or whoever and make a fantastic Christmas card out of it.

Before you do it think about choosing a picture of you (or the pair of you) in the middle of the photo and not having a distracting background as this will make the important part of the card stand out more.

Also think about what greeting you'd like in the card. Do you want to go all gushy, sentimental or a plain old "Merry Christmas"?

Now they're not cheap. If you're buying 50 cards then it'll set you back £64. But you'll be assured of sending a card that nobody else has.

They create the Christmas cards on 350gsm matt card which is made from 100% recycled material. Of course, you also get the envelopes to suit.

They also do cards where you just have your name or your company's name in the middle. And choice? You want choice? Look at what styles of Christmas cards you can have (I think there's well over 100). You can have fun Christmas cards, Classic cards and contemporary ones - as well as loads of other styles.

If you order before the end of October then you get 10% off your order and you'll still get the free UK delivery too.

But then there's Photobox which seems to be the industry leader in stuff like this! Just look at the awards they've won:



And what's more if you use the PhotoBox Voucher Code "5CARDSAVE" you'll get £5 off if you spend over £20, until December 12th.

They've got 296 (and counting) different cards to choose from.



And again, you can edit the greeting and upload photos - its all very clever!


You can also ask them to send the card direct to someone else (extra 40p per card) or to yourself.

Yoodoo also do personalised Christmas cards so check them out too!
