Anyone sending out any Christmas e-cards?

Wondering if I should do one to mail out to my clients.

Did one for a client. More likely to buy a few bottles of whisky than go to the hassle of making my own one though.

I've just finished one where the client wanted all their staff's faces super imposed onto Christmas tree balls (hence my avatar) with the directors flying around the top as little angels - beat that

Was thinking of doing an HTML email. Something simple. Except I've never done an HTML email before.

Because I was thinking it'd be a good way to showcase some of what I do to older clients who haven't seen my new stuff.

I hate cards, I really do.

Its such a waste and the majority of them are utter shite. Only ever found one Christmas card I liked and it was 50p.

dont want to sound like an old grouch but I have to agree. What I really dislike is the fact that they mean so little and so little thought goes into them.
I hand-make all mine so that people I do send them to tend to savour (is that the right word?) them more... my mum actually collects them

I'm not on about sending christmas cards to your mates or your gran. I'm on about doing it for marketing and slagging my name about a bit

I know...just commenting on the sending actual 'cards' posting... electronic versions are much better especailly from a marketing point of view.

perhaps we had gone slightly off topic??? blame the previous posts
