Something Extra

Sending a Christmas card is one of the oldest practices associated with the Holiday Season. I still do that until now. And greeting cards are becoming more and more interesting each year. They’re more than just greeting cards now. Like the ones I saw when I bought Christmas cards for friends and family abroad.

This is more like the usual Christmas card, but it features the painting of a Filipino artist (“Parol Pastillas” by Ging Flores). Aside from that, part of its sales will be given to an organization called l.i. f.e. (leukemic indigents fund endowment), dedicated to save the lives of poor children with leukemia by way of sustained medical treatment.

A three-fold card in pastel colors. Funky design, isn’t it? Youthful. And the message is cute. The little extra? Here:

You can wear these heart-shaped dangling earrings if you like. :D

Another classic design, but look inside the red circle. There’s an iron-on design perfect for your tee, pants, or bag!

What can you do with this card with adorable little angels? Easy!

Transformed into stand up angels that you can use as a candle holder or put whatever designs you fancy.

And here’s my favorite:

A four-fold dollhouse Christmas card…

with punch-out paper dolls and decors inside…

that you can arrange in any way you want. ;)

Which of them did you like most?

    That is so true. I remember when I was a little girl I used to collect old Christmas cards coz they had so much character. There’s something nostalgic and beautiful about old Christmas cards.
