There are secular and traditional type like pictures of Santa, Frosty the Snowman, a winter wonderland scene, etc. There are funny ones for those who want to send a humorous greeting. Then, perhaps the most popular of all are the personalized photo Christmas cards.

That's only if you don't already happen to own some.

Once you purchase the software you can be set for years to come for a one-time price! Talk about making personalized Christmas cards cheap!

In your software you should find lots of graphics, icons , etc that you can combine with their templates. Remember to leave space where you might want to add photos or names of your family or other custom touches.

What you will find online for:
Customized Christmas Cards

• Stock designs - Some online companies offer a basic plan which offers a fairly limited selection of art, types of paper and messages that you can mix and match. You can make your own unique cards from their stock selection and usually get a photo, if you have one, imprinted on the front cover of the card. Or maybe you have a logo you want on the card.

• Unique designs - these can be completely customized so you can write what you want your message to be, and use your own artwork, drawing, picture or whatever in your cards. If you want to design them on your computer and have the company print them for you, this is an option with some companies.

When it comes to printing, you can go traditional with a single-fold card that has the picture on the front and the verse inside. Or you might choose something like a Christmas postcard to save on the postage. This also saves paper which is a responsible decision for the environment.

With so many options available, you can easily create or automate creating your own customized Christmas cards to send this holiday season.
