There’s still time to make an amazing holiday card this year! We’ve got hundreds of template options in the app that are perfect for sharing in a post or sending in an email with a heart-felt message.
We know it can be overwhelming to put something together last minute. So we have templates organized in the app to help narrow down your search. From the start page, tap Templates, then scroll through the categories to choose from options like Winter, Family Christmas Cards, Worldwide Christmas, Traditional Christmas, Christmas Faith, or Trending. Explore options by mood or tap Christmas – All to see everything together.
To get the creative juices flowing, we’re showing you a few (okay 15 – we just couldn’t choose) of our favorite holiday card scenarios – featuring photos of real users! We hope you will find something that suits you wherever and however you are celebrating this year!
1. From: Our Family to Yours
Ah the “classic” Christmas card. If you had a chance to snap a great picture of the family this year, don’t let it go to waste. Printed and mailed cards aren’t the only way to go. Find a vertical template that matches the color palette of your photo, and you will have things looking professional in no time! Share it broadly as a beautiful facebook post. If you prefer a more private option, closer to traditional mail – send an email out to your regular newsletter list with the photo included for a special touch.
You can find this template design in our Family Christmas Cards Category in the app!
2. From: The Extended-Family (even the cat!)
Since so many extended families won’t be able to gather in person this year, a special card can help bridge the gap! This template has room to include the whole family tree. You can send it to everyone in the family you will be calling and video chatting with as an extra surprise. Print it out and frame it as a special momento that is a little more photogenic than a screenshot of a Zoom call.

3. From: The Newly Weds
If you had a smaller or adapted wedding this year, friends and family are probably still craving more of those wedding photos! Make a glamorous card by choosing a template with gold details. It will complement your wedding portraits and give it a timeless effect so it can be kept after the season ends!

4. From: The Roommates
Roommates will be celebrating together more than ever this year. Mark the special occasion with your second family by taking a great selfie together and dressing it up in a card template. Send it to other loved ones to show them what you’re up to this Christmas!

For the co-workers you haven’t seen in person since May – show them you still remember what they look like with a sweet photo collage.

6. From: An Appreciative Resident
For the delivery driver who kept you alive this year! Make a special note with this letter template. The page on the right is blank so you can choose your favorite font and jot down a few thoughts about why you want to say thanks. Really this template is great for a quick note to anyone, we just love the vintage mailbox that reminds us of all of the delivery workers making sure everyone gets those extra online orders!

11. From: The Chef
To your guests to get them excited for Christmas dinner!
