You may think of holiday cards as being Christmas or Seasons Greetings cards, but really there are many more holiday cards than this one holiday. There are holiday cards for Christmas, Hanukah, Easter (or Resurrection Day), Thanksgiving, Halloween, Columbus Day, President's Day, Martin Luther King Day, Independence Day, New Years, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Grandparents Day, and Administrative Assistants Day. As you can see, there are many holidays we celebrate, and each of them have their own holiday cards.

Holiday cards were not always so popular.  Only in the last several years have holiday cards been created for all of the holidays we celebrate as Americans.  I was surprised to find Halloween and Thanksgiving holiday cards when I went Christmas card shopping last year.  I later discovered that holiday cards are becoming more and more popular, as people send holiday cards all year round to their friends and family.  It is becoming increasingly popular to send holiday cards to all of you friends and family at every opportunity, just to let them know you care.

Holiday cards come in all shapes and sizes.  You can choose holiday cards that are uniform and simple, and send one to everyone on your list.  Or, you can choose individual holiday cards suitable for each person based on personality and what holiday they celebrate.  For example, if you know people who are Christian and people who are Jewish, you may choose to send a uniform card that says simply "Season's Greetings."  On the other hand, you can choose to send your Christian friends Christmas holiday cards, and your Jewish friends Hanukah holiday cards.  This way everyone feels special, and knows that you are thinking of them specifically.

Holiday cards can come with fancy pictures or cartoons, sentimental poetry or funny phrases, or even music or pop up figures.  You can get holiday cards specifically for each member of your family.  There are holiday cards for children, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, husbands, wives, and friends.  There are romantic holiday cards, funny holiday cards, sexy holiday cards, and sentimental holiday cards.

You can find holiday cards at any general store, retail outlet, discount store, or holiday store.  You can also find holiday cards at wholesale outlets, dollar stores, and specialty shops.  The funniest and most sexy holiday cards can be found at novelty stores such as Spencer's, found in most shopping malls.

Alternatively, you can make your own holiday cards with a little bit of glue, construction paper, a pair of scissors, and a lot of creativity.  Children rather enjoy making holiday cards for their friends and family.  Buying a holiday card is not nearly so much fun as making one yourself.  Also, the home-made holiday card from your favorite child means much more than a uniform holiday card purchased in a store.

Regardless of who you are sending a holiday card to, you are sure to find the perfect holiday card to suit that person's interests and hobbies.  From Harley Davidson to Disney, holiday cards are an absolute must in every season.
