Thanks for sharing Beth’s Give List. It’s an inspired aggregate of ideas on Giving. I’m going to have to share it with my readers too. But I can’t help it, I’m a holiday card junkie! I can’t afford to send one to everyone in my online community but please consider the sentiment no less sincere. So here’s mine to you… Enjoy the holidays, Chris…

I’ll be sending most of my personal Christmas Cods via email, but I’m still selling the paper variety. But Beth’s article will help me find ways to give I hadn’t thought about.

I love this! Now this is something I can do. Never did get around to doing the holiday card mailing thing. Be on the look out for picture hellos, and Christmas greetings.

I usually do virtual cards for people far away. This time will do something to help the greater good. Thanks Chris. When are you coming to Houston again?

Well, first of all let me say I love your suggestions. I think your ideas are great (as always).

I have two separate “lists”. No, not a Naughty and Nice list, although sometimes I feel I should get one, lol. I have my list of friends who I keep in touch “virtually” – I don’t think I have to list all the different digital avenues we travel, do I? To these people, I send a digital holiday card I create, with either a poem I write or a famous quote, and I add my own sentiment, which gets mushy, I have to admit.

My other list contains all my friends and family that I keep in touch with more personally. To them, I hand make cards for them. This year my theme is ice and trees. I start making them this weekend.

What can I say? Can’t expect an Art Director not to actually make stuff, lol.

Sometimes the “traditions” of the holiday season are more important than the meaning of these traditions. I love that you post these alternate ideas. I just discovered your blog and have really enjoyed reading it.
