Christmas Cards for a Festive, Feel-Good Season

Christmas cards are a much-loved tradition for so many of us. Whether you’re writing to family you don’t see often, sending a sweet note to a friend, or popping a cute card into a festive gift, there’s something wonderfully nostalgic about sharing a handwritten message at this time of year. A Christmas card is a simple way to say “I’m thinking of you” — and it brings a little sparkle to someone’s day as soon as it hits the doormat.

When Should You Send a Christmas Card?

Most people wait until December to start thinking about Christmas cards, but sending them early can be a lovely way to kick off the season. Posting them in late November or at the start of December means your friends and family get to enjoy your card all month long — whether it’s proudly displayed on a mantelpiece or clipped to a string of fairy lights.

If you’re planning to send cards to loved ones overseas, popping them in the post a little earlier is always a good idea. And if you’re someone who loves being organised, feel free to get a head start with our Christmas collection — no judgement here!

Who Are Christmas Cards For?

Although Christmas began as a religious celebration, it’s now enjoyed by people from all walks of life. Christmas cards have grown from simple greetings into a fun, heartfelt way to share news, stay in touch, or just spread a bit of cheer. Some people love sending cards to a long list of friends and family; others choose a handful of meaningful messages for the people closest to them.

Our collection includes cards for:

• Partners, friends, and family

• Neighbours, colleagues, and Secret Santa matches

• Children, teachers, and favourite family members

• Pet parents and animal lovers (with plenty of designs inspired by dogs, cats, and other furry faces!)

Cards for People — and for Pets, Too

Pets are very much part of the family, so of course they should have their moment in the festive spotlight. Alongside traditional cards, this collection includes options for:

• Dog Christmas Cards – perfect for dog mums, dog dads, and anyone whose life revolves around their four-legged pal

• Christmas Cards From the Dog – add a personalised touch for partners, parents, or friends who adore your pup

• Christmas Cards To the Dog – a fun little extra to pop into a stocking or place under the tree

If you want something extra cute and personal, don’t forget to explore the Little Us Collection — a sweet, childlike illustration style that looks as though it’s been created by small hands (or paws!). These cards are especially lovely for families and make wonderful keepsakes.

Are Our Christmas Cards Eco-Friendly?

Absolutely. Our Christmas cards are made using mixed paper pulp or 100% recycled materials, and they’re completely plastic-free. That means once the festive season is over, you can pop them straight into your household recycling with no guilt attached.

Even our packaging is planet-conscious, using biodegradable or paper-based materials wherever possible. It’s a simple way to celebrate sustainably without sacrificing quality or charm.
