Briggy Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Hi and a happy christmas to all on POI:D Is it just me or does there seem to be a lack of nice christmas cards saying ''Merry christmas from oz on'' ? being my fist christmas in oz wanted to send a nice card with the above or something simular on it, to family back home. I personally can't find any nice and resonably priced cards:( The ones I did find aren't that inspiring. So I have decided to put a question to all of you fellow PIO's I'm making and selling cards with the above saying and lots of other cards for next Christmas. And I would like any feedback good or bad as to what you all think. Is it a good idea or bad. As don't want to waste money on starting up and it flopping:D My cards won't be tacky and cheap. But nice lovely and sweet:D Hey that ryhmes:D HO HO HO!!!! Cheers Brig and a verry merry chrimbo to all:D:wubclub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quoll Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 They probably wont say from Oz - not too many Aussies call it that - but Woolies usually has some cards to send to international destinations, they have been quite nice in past years.

calNgary Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Our local IGA (used to be Spar) sell them for a dollar. They have a pic of kangaroo or koala in a santa hat and the words 'Merry Christmas from Australia' on the front, not much of a verse inside though. See if there is an IGA or Spar near you?

Smithy Family Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Try this web site i always send me cards to the Uk through them Moonpig Cards Australia You can change all the writing on the cards so you can put what ever you want Forgot to add there is a uk site (look at top right hand corner) as well so you can still send the cards on times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest littlesarah Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I got some really cool cards - just from one of the card shops. A pack with Christmas tree shape on the front, which is actually made up of kanagroos, and another pack with cartoon Aussie animals on the beach/having a barbie. They just said 'Merry Christmas' on the front, with no mention of Australia; which I prefer, personally. (My friends & family know where I am!)

Phoenix16 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 if anyone in Fremantle is looking for cards there is a lovely card stall in Fremantle Market, the stall holder is a local artist and designs the cards herself and I got some great 'Merry Christmas from Australia' cards. Also got some great ones from the local newsstand that are beach scenes with a Christmas tree drawn in the sand and with Christmas 2010 drawn in the sand, friends in the UK shouldn't struggle to guess where they are from!!

Que Sera Sera Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Ive Moonpigged all my UK relatives this year and they only take a couple of days to deliver as the cards are printed in the UK:cute: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
