Make Your Own Christmas Cards at Greetings Island
We were looking for a site that allows users to upload pictures and use them in their Christmas cards. We also wanted a site that gave users many Christmas card templates to help get them started. After being disappointed many times by sites claiming to be free amd then wanting to charge users for the good stuff, we found Greetings Island.
Not only did Greetings Island offer everything we were looking for but they also allowed users to send eCards by email. And they’re even animated. They offer all kinds of cards, birthday cards, Valentine’s cards, friendship cards, sympathy cards, and more. But the Christmas season is here (almost), so we’re focusing on Greetings Island’s Christmas cards
First, you’ll notice that you’ll have the option of creating a folded card – as you would buy in a store or a flat card you can download as an image. Unless you have a reason not to, we suggest you choose “Folded”. Not only can you download and print your card, but you can also send it as an eCard. And the eCards are very nice — as we’ll soon show you.
Greetings Island has a nice selection of templates to choose from, making it easy to start your Christmas card project.
We’ll tell you this, to use Greetings Island, you have to create a free account. You will need to provide a name and an email address and that’s it. We created an account and then dug right into making a Christmas card.
We picked the cute snowman template.
Then I added some text – in our case, I wrote a little poem. You can write anything you want, choose different fonts, font sizes, and colors – and even add your own images.
If you like you can add your own creative touches to the back of the card. See?
The templates offer many customizable options, for example…
When you’re all done creating your masterpiece, you can download it and print it. Or you can choose to send it by email as an eCard… and not just any old eCard — but one with cute animation as well.

I like Hallmark. You pay for the latest app and download it and pay nothing more. I have 3 on my pc, one from 2013, and I use them over and over and there seems to be more options for customization on the hallmark app. and you can copy and paste your own graphics and change and add text and change the color of text almost anywhere. You can also customize and print envelopes. There are more options , such as invitations, that I haven’t used. If you haven’t yet, check it out
Hallmark is not free…so it would not be a good freeware or site pick. If someone makes cards all year round then Hallmark might be worth the money. We were just featuring a free site where people could make Christmas cards without buying anything. But maybe those interested in making more than a few Christmas cards would be interested in your recommendation.
I’ve been using Greetings for years. It is wonderful and so easy to do. TY for posting.
