Or maybe this year being the way it\u2019s been, you have lost touch with loved ones, and have decided to pick up a pen and paper and write to them! We believe cards and letters are the best gifts to receive. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may be wondering why we are discussing Christmas cards? Well, Christmas Card Day is on the 9th of December this year! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1843, the first commercial Christmas card was created in England by Sir Henry Cole. He had the idea of sharing the Christmas spirit by creating to cards for those to write their own Christmas cheer on. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-vivid-red-color has-text-color\" style=\"font-size:18px\"> <strong>How do I celebrate?!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">As we were saying, Christmas cards are a lot more personal than spending lots of money on a present.
