Christmas day falls on the 25th of December, the celebration of Christmas starts as soon as the month of December begins. Some countries that have Christianity as their predominant religion, the festivity would start as early as September and end mid-January. Traditions and rituals to observe the Christmas festival varies from one region to another, depending on culture and lifestyle.

People would find pleasure in giving gifts whether big or small but wouldn’t it be more meaningful to hand your presents along with a nice Christmas card? Or if you really don’t have something to give, may I rephrase and say, why not give a Christmas greeting card instead of nothing? According to the Greeting Card Market Research Report, the sales of greeting cards specifically Hallmark dropped down of more than 5 percent since 5 years ago. We all know why it happened; it’s because of the trending electronic message sending whether via email, social networking and SMS.  If not, it’s because of the availability of different greeting card makers online as well as some printable templates ready for use. Whether you buy from the card shops or print from the internet, it really doesn’t matter for me. I would just like to encourage everyone to liven up one of the classic Christmas tradition which is sending out physical Christmas Greeting Cards.

It’s even fun to collect lovely cards, keeping them so you could reread it someday as the years passed. It would be perfect for the sentimental individuals. Sending out Christmas cards with wonderful Christmas wishes to share the spirit of the holiday has become a worthwhile activity taught to kids but would be great too if practiced even among the adults.
