The Effect of Sept. 11 on Christmas Cards
The Effect of Sept. 11 on Christmas Cards
Herndon, VA (PRWEB) September 8, 2005
Not only has the tragedy of Sept. 11, 2001, changed how our nation functions, but it has even trickled down to influence such things as a person’s selection of a Christmas greeting card.
Debby Sibert, the president of http://www.DesignCrafters.com who has been selling Christmas cards online since 1996 says, Â?Before September 11th, our company, as well as other companies, did not offer patriotic holiday cards. You didn’t see them being offered anywhere. Patriotism seemed to be a sentiment reserved for holidays like Memorial Day or Independence Day. All this changed in the aftermath of Sept. 11, and we began to receive calls from customers asking if we sold patriotic Christmas cards. We immediately went to print with what we thought was a great patriotic card with the flag, the Capital dome, the Washington Monument, and the Lincoln Memorial with the caption, ‘Peace on Earth.’ We also had another version with the caption ‘God Bless America’. Soon after that, we noticed that all of our other suppliers started offering a variety of patriotic Christmas cards. Suddenly it was fashionable to be patriotic.Â?
Richard Evans, the owner and President of Birchcraft Studios said, Â?The sale of Patriotic Holiday Cards continues to be strong as we head into the 2005 season. The Greeting Card Industry responded to the tremendous demand for Patriotic Cards in the weeks after the 9-11 tragedy. Additionally, many heartfelt remembrance and Patriotic verses were created not only for these cards but also for many of our traditional ‘Peace’ card subjects, such as ‘Doves’, ‘Children of the World’, Flags of the WorldÂ? etc. Again in 2005, we project that sales of Patriotic Holiday cards will be strong. To meet this demand, we are featuring 18 Patriotic designs on the Birchcraft Holiday Card Website, including one design for Thanksgiving. This continues to be one our larger categories of cards within the Website. Further, the sale of these cards is boosted by our Patriotic and Remembrance verses.Â?
The tragedy of 9/11 caused great pain, but it also birthed a new sense of unity to a nation filled with people of different origins and beliefs. People began to see that, like Christmas cheer, patriotism should be celebrated the whole year through. Many in this business thought that the trend would end after one or two years, but September 2005 will mark the four year anniversary of the tragedy – and Patriotic cards continue to be in popular demand. Now there is quite an assortment, in fact the styles have become more and more creative. They are significant enough to justify their own category on most websites.
Choosing a patriotic card does not mean that Christmas, as its own special holiday, is lessened. Card designers have created clever ways to show both one’s love of Christmas and one’s patriotism. Cards featuring ornaments decorated with the stars and stripes, a snowman proudly holding a flag, or a wintry wonderland overshadowed by a waving flag high on a pole, are all ways that this is accomplished. Many of these cards still feature traditional verses which speak of love, peace, and gratitude – but some have added language which lends more to a patriotic nature. Some examples of these verses are seen below:
Â?At this holiday season we remember and honor those who are no longer with us and cherish those who are. We wish you a world of peace.Â?
Â?May Peace fill the hearts of people everywhere and join all nations of the world in brotherhoodÂ?
Â?May the Spirit of the Holidays remind you of the strength and perseverance of our nation and its peopleÂ?
These verses are only a highlight of the changes which have been seen in the Christmas card selections available since after 9-11. As our nation enters yet another Christmas season we are thankful for the blessings we have received, the great liberties we share, and most especially, for the lives that have been sacrificed so that we may celebrate the holidays in peace and love.

The Christmas Box / Timepiece
Hallmark’s warm, 1995 made-for-television movie The Christmas Box and its darker, 1996 prequel, Timepiece, are logically and delightfully paired in this DVD package. In the former, Richard Thomas plays Richard, a ski-shop owner consumed with work and unhappy about his family’s insistence on sharing a lonely mansion with Mary, an icy, humorless widow (Maureen O’Hara). While Richard’s wife and child develop loving ties with Mary, he suffers recurring dreams and grows convinced the house is haunted by a tragedy from the old woman’s past. Timepiece jumps ahead 16 years from the resolution of that story, then takes us back to the 1940s, when Mary (Naomi Watts) and her late husband, David (Kevin Kilner), a wealthy arms supplier to America’s war effort, marry and endure both a bogus murder trial and a crushing family loss. While it’s wonderful to see O’Hara, Timepiece proves the grittier, more interesting film, helped mightily by a cast including James Earl Jones and Ellen Burstyn. –Tom Keogh

What’s In the Cards this Christmas?
(PRWEB) November 30, 2003
With around 7 billion cards sold annually during the festive season, Christmas card giving is always a big deal for time poor consumers and big business for retailers. Yet despite the abundance of high-tech Christmas card services available and claims that virtual Christmas cards will be the norm within ten years, most consumers remain loyal to the age-old paper and ink version for lack of a better alternative. But this year, ensuring that everyone gets an individualized Christmas card will no longer be a costly game of patience, chance or bluff thanks to Tumbler Media Productions Â? who have combined traditional styles and personal greetings with modern-day technology to deliver the ultimate audio Christmas card package.
Tumbler Media Productions, the audio, video and graphic design specialists, is the first company of its kind in Northwestern Ontario to tailor customized media technology with old world tradition for the Christmas consumer market at low prices. Their memorable Christmas card CD package includes a compilation of timeless festive songs and is presented in a Christmas card sleeve of your choice along with your personalized Christmas greetings message. At only .50 each and with no minimum order requirements, these CD greetings cards are no more expensive than the retail price of an average countertop card. With over 20 high quality Christmas card designs to choose from, Tumbler Media offers something for everyone, whatever their age, style or greetings message.
Despite claims that virtual greetings cards and internet services will soon replace the paper and ink version entirely, Luke Gladu and Henry Suarez, founders of Tumbler Media Productions believe that when it comes to Christmas, the public wants novelty gift ideas but still holds traditional customs in higher regard.
Says Luke Gladu of Tumbler Media Productions, Â?Christmas cards have always reflected current consumer trends since their birth in 1843 and Tumbler Media Productions is continuing this innovation for 2003 but without compromising on tradition. Clearly, for most people finding the time to sit down, write and deliver Christmas cards is draining on their time as well as their wallets, but the virtual greetings card is simply not a good enough alternative. Indeed, even though electronic Christmas cards have become more popular in recent years, their appeal is limited due to their impersonal approach and restricted audience. How many grandparents would appreciate or have access to a virtual Christmas card? WhatÂ?s so unique about our Christmas card CD is that it provides the perfect balance between the time-less spirit of Christmas giving and modern day technology. Indeed, it is a physical product that can be given to anyone, be it a grandparent, work colleague, staff or business client.Â?
WhatÂ?s more, this Christmas card music CD is not only a great way to avoid the Christmas shopping crowds but the last minute service provided by Tumbler Media Productions, will ensure that everyone is made to feel that they were at the top of your Christmas card wish list this year.

Recycle Your Christmas Cards By Creative Ways
Don’t throw your Christmas cards away! There are so many creative ways to use your Christmas cards, many of which you can do with your kids. We have brought together some ideas below.Visit here:http://www.worldwidewriter.com//article-display.php?articleid=4044
Christmas jigsaw game:
Make a Christmas jigsaw game. Gather 10-20 cards and cut each one into 3 or 4 pieces, using straight lines. Shuffle them up and lay them out on a flat service such as a dining table or the floor – then put them back together again!
Store the cards in a shoebox for next time. This is fun on a quiet family evening at the beginning of the season as it helps to get everybody into the Christmas spirit!
Christmas tree ornaments:
Make cinnamon stick ornaments for the Christmas tree. Wrap a small bundle of cinnamon sticks together with a pretty ribbon tied in a bow (leave a loop for hanging).
Using a small dab of glue, attach a pretty shape cut from a Christmas card with pinking shears to the centre of the ribbon bow to finish the ornament off. These look pretty and smell delicious too!
Scented sachets:
Make scented sachets to give as gifts or fragrance your own home. Simply glue the bottom and side edges of the card together and then slip a small amount of potpourri (or a cotton ball on which you have dropped a little Christmas essential oil) into the space.
Use a hole punch to make two holes on the top edge, through which you can thread a pretty ribbon before tying a bow.
If you leave a loop in the ribbon, the sachets can be hung on door handles, coat hooks or radiators (the heat will help to release the scent, but it won’t last as long) to create a welcoming, Christmas atmosphere.
Christmas mobile or “string”:
Cut shapes out of the cards in matching pairs. Hearts work nicely, as do simple Christmas tree shapes and even plain squares and circles. Stick the cards back to back and laminate them, then punch a hole in them and use to make a colorful and child-friendly mobile or “string” to decorate next year.
You could add to this every year. As a variation, you could back each shape with a plain-colored piece of card or construction paper and write on it the date and name of the person who sent the card.
Christmas card game:
Cut playing-card shapes out of the cards, stick a piece of plain card over any writing if necessary, and use to make a Christmas game or quiz for your children to play next year. Laminate to protect.
Gift tags:
A traditional activity, but one which never fails to amuse the kids, is making gift tags for next year’s presents. Use pinking sheers, a hole punch, and leftover ribbon
Gift bags:
Make gift bags for next year by saving smart paper bags. Cut a nice shape out of each card and stick it to the front of the bag (covering any shop labels if necessary). Sometimes one Christmas card will yield many different bag decorations!
Add a little ribbon bow just above the card and wrap your present in tissue paper before putting it into the bag. This looks lovely with brown paper bags and tartan ribbons.
Miniature Christmas cards:
Some Christmas card designs can be cut and folded into miniature Christmas cards for the kids to give next year, or for decorating the dolls house.
Christmas screensaver:
Scan your favorite cards into the computer – and some of your favorite messages from inside the cards as well – and make them into a Christmas wallpaper or screensaver with a photo program. Children love this and it is a great memento if you do it each year.
Lacing card:
Cut out the pictures on the larger cards, punch holes around the edges with a hole punch, add a shoelace or brightly colored yarn (with sticky tape wrapped around the ends) and you have a cheerful and cheap lacing card for little ones. If they are particularly popular you could laminate them to make them last longer.
Christmas confetti:
Make some Christmas confetti to use next year (scatter it on the Christmas table, or put a pinch inside your Christmas cards and gifts!) Use either a plain hole punch or a special Christmas one (both together look great) and choose the most colorful areas from each card to cut.
Gold and silver looks very effective, especially mixed in with red and green. Small scraps of leftover wrapping paper can be used too. You can keep the children busy with this for hours!

Learn how the tradition of Christmas cards got started. One of the most identifiable traditions of Christmas is sending Christmas cards filled with merriness of the season and heartfelt greetings. Christmas cards got their start in the 1840′s by Sir Henry Cole. He commissioned the artist John Callcott Horsley to make a greeting with illustrations and a message. The first Christmas card read “A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to You” and showed an illustration of a lively party scene. (00:51)

A Carol Christmas
- It’s yet another version of Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol”, with a gender-bender twist. Tori Spelling stars as Carol Cummings, a fabulously wealthy and enormously successful TV talk show host–and a first-class Rhymes With Witch. Caring little for anything the money and the celebrity that her job accrues, Carol mercilessly bullies and harangues everyone with whom she works, from her ulcerate
DVD: 05-51363 A Carol Christmas Tori Spelling (Beverly Hills, 90210), William Shatner (Star Trek) and Gary Coleman (Diff’rent Strokes) shine in this light-hearted update of the Dickens classic. Carol Cartman (Spelling) says “Bah, humbug” to the clichés of her fellow talk-show host, Dr. Bob (Shatner), and especially to a live Christmas Eve show her producer has planned. But during a pre-show nap, her late Aunt Marla (Dinah Manoff) takes Carol on a holiday journey, complete with Ghosts of Christmas Past (Coleman) and Present (Shatner again). Soon, this Scrooge-like celebrity is shown the life she should have led, the life she causes others to lead…and the fate that might await her, if she doesn’t show some holiday spirit! Running Time: Approx. 85 Minutes Color/NTSC/Stereo

Boston, MA (PRWEB) December 12, 2006
Does “sending Christmas cards” really have to be the unpleasant ordeal that the holiday song parody, The 12 Pains of Christmas, makes it out to be? Custom-Christmas-Card.com says no. People who prefer the convenience of online and mail order Christmas shopping can continue to avoid long lines at the mall and post office thanks to Custom-Christmas-Card.com. At this and many other sites like it, holiday well-wishers are able to select, personalize, and have their custom Christmas cards printed and mailed, on time, all from the comfort of their home or office computer.

The site offers over 500 “winter holiday” designs ranging from silly to serious to sleek to sentimental and everything in between.

Special features include card design customization (choose from a wide assortment, upload your own image, or combine), standard greeting or “write your own message,” and the unique option to create a font in your own handwriting. Customers are also finding handy uses for the contact list management feature that Custom-Christmas-Card.com offers with their membership.
