What to Write in a Christmas Card
Spreading cheer with Christmas gifts is only one part of the season. Another important component is sharing words of adoration and affection with those who have touched our lives. Christmas cards provide the opportunity to reach out to those you might not have spoken to in a while. Now, count your blessings and share the Christmas spirit. If you’re not sure where to start, follow our festive steps below to craft a heartwarming card.
1. Start with a Friendly Christmas Greeting
Address the recipient with a traditional Christmas greeting such as “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Holidays,” followed by their name. For cards addressed to an entire family, write the holiday greeting, then their last name followed by “family.” For example, “Merry Christmas Smith Family!”
2. Add a Personal Touch or Inspiring Christmas Message
Select from one of our inspiring Christmas messages below or reflect on a fond memory you have with the recipient — either will evoke a heartfelt feeling. Plus, there’s nothing better than a personalized message! Below we include messages suited for anyone you wish a warm holiday to.
3. Share a Christmas Quote or Religious Christmas Saying to Tie the Card Together
For those who emphasize the reason for the season, include a relevant quote or religious Christmas message. This is the perfect way to connect with loved ones — just be mindful of the recipient’s religious traditions. We include religious Christmas messages and Christmas quotes below for you to choose from.
4. Make Your Recipient Laugh
If you’re sending a Christmas wish to someone close, a funny Christmas saying is perfect to include. It’s a holly jolly season after all!
5. Sign Off Your Card with Warm Christmas Wishes
Any Christmas card recipient deserves a warm sign-off. Tie up all your thoughts with one of our closings below. When selecting a closing for your greetings, keep your recipient in mind. For business holiday cards, use one of the last three professional sign-offs.
Have a lovely Christmas
God bless
With all my love
Remember the reason for the season
Warmest wishes

Cheers
