These Christmas cards are totally different from what you can find in the stores. I've hand-picked some beautiful and artist masterpieces from Etsy and Zazzle to show you, and all of them have been drawn or designed, or painted, or sewn by an actual human being. (The best one is last - Created by the best human ever) The cards from Zazzle can be personalized with special (or naughty) messages, and some can be customized with a family photo. It is very easy to personalize these cards right on the platform. The cards I picked from Etsy are hand crafted with crazy skill and creativity. These would be very difficult to replicate for a store, so your loved ones know that you spent some extra time and care selecting their cards this year. Awesome! I find them to be about the same cost as buying cards in the shop. And it looks like you spent a fortune on them!
