Oops! Did you forget someone on your Christmas card list?

in Cool Ideas

Things happen, sometimes we miss someone on our Christmas card list.  Or we haven’t gotten an updated address and we get the cards returned to us.  This is no problem… when this happens to me, I just send a Happy New Year greeting!  Happy New Year Greetings are also a neat way to say thanks for the Christmas gift.  I have created one “Thanks” and Happy New Year Card on Zazzle, and I found many others there too.  I thought I’d share a few of them with you…
