Photo Christmas Greetings
These popular Christmas greetings combine a personalized greeting with a photograph of your family. A traditional photo greeting lets you attach an actual 4x6 photograph to the card, while new "digital" designs allow you to upload a photograph to be printed on the card itself. The advantage of the digital cards is a savings in labor for you or your spouse.

The traditional cards feature photos printed on chemical photo paper, which will last much longer. Additionally, many families choose to remove the traditional photo from the card to save in their scrapbook or photo album. For this reason the 4x6 inch format photo cards are still quite popular.

Digital cards offer additional design choices as well. Some allow multiple photographs on the same card. These are wonderful for families where a child is off at college and cannot gather for a family photograph. Or, families with multiple small children also benefit from these cards, which allow you to choose a "great" shot of each child (how many have tried to get a photo of the family with all the kids looking at the camera, eyes opened, smiling at the same time?).

Almost all photo Christmas cards offer you the opportunity to put a customized Christmas greeting or message on the card.
