Has anybody got any links? I always end up getting bog standard ones (nothing wrong with that obv) but would like to send really nice ones this year.

I used to order from a card website recommended on here before, but can't for the life of me remember what they are called.

probably not what you're looking for but if I had oodles of cash to spend on cards I'd buy some from \link{http://www.folksy.com/shops/eleanormharris/christmas\here}

OOoooh.. lovely site, but yes - bit too ££££ for me sadly!

tell me about it - I currently feel like I'm "splashing out" if I spend more than about £2 on a box of 40 cards Blush (though last year I managed to send 0 cards so will spend nothing this year as I have all of last years ultra cheap boxes of cards sat in the drawer)

This year, I am making my own! I am the least bit crafty but even these are within my reach. I have bought 4x4inch plain white cards with envelopes and am going to put a Chritmassy stamp in the centre of each. I have done 3 so far and, even if I do say so myself, they look great. Grin

Usually, anything handmade by my hands looks crap but I am really pleased with them so far! Whether I get round to doing any more than 3 remains to be seen!

Alternatively, Phoenix Trading do gorgeous Christmas cards - but are fairly expensive depending on which packs you have.

actually found some pretty good boxes at paperchase and they had some perfect stocking fillers too :)

There are some beautiful cards here www.traidcraftshop.co.uk/c-167-fair-trade-christmas-cards.aspx The embroidered ones are lovely in real life.
