Printing Direct offers four ranges for customers considering sending corporate Christmas Cards:
 |
Yuletide Greetings is our extensive collection of eye-catching 2008 Corporate Christmas Cards, one of the largest selections in the UK. The range includes both humorous and contemporary designs, as well as more traditional scenes. You can view close-ups of the images and personalise the cards with your own company details right here on the site. |
 |
The Caring at Christmas collection is drawn from the range above, but is restricted to Christmas Cards that carry a charity contribution. A purchase from this collection allows you to choose from over forty charities, with a percentage of the price paid going to help support your selected cause. The charity logo, or in some cases a list of similar charities, will be attractively arranged inside your cards together with your personalised Christmas greeting. |
 |
Our Photographic Range features the work of award-winning photographer Edmund Nagele F.R.P.S.
These original designs are printed on luxurious smooth white board with a high gloss finish. His work has been described as 'painting with light' and the result
is a Christmas card collection which is both modern and unusual.

Would you prefer to produce your own original design? Our OwnDesign
option allows you to do this. You can create your Christmas Card artwork
in virtually any design programme, including Microsoft Word or Publisher,
and email it to us. We will produce the finished card for you, printed in
full colour on silky smooth white art board, with accompanying self-seal
envelopes. |

How
about sending a Corporate Calendar this year? Our new
calendars for 2009 come in freestanding CD cases. This
ensures not just very attractive presentation, but also
a compact format which means they occupy the minimum
amount of desk space, and are likely to stay in front of
your customers all year round! As well as being
customisable with your company info, they are available
with a choice of Christmas card which can be
personalised too, and also fits in the CD case. |
Questions and Answers about our Christmas Cards
Envelopes.
Will my cards come with envelopes?
Yes, all Christmas Cards come with high quality plain white self-seal
envelopes of a suitable size.
Logos.
Can I incorporate my own company logo?
Yes, we can incorporate your company logo into any of our ranges of Christmas
Cards. With the OwnDesign option the
incorporation of the logo is already allowed for in the standard artwork handling
charge. On our Yuletide Greetings and
Caring at Christmas ranges, an extra
charge of £30 + VAT applies. When ordering from these latter two ranges,
please state that you want a logo in the "additional comments" box
towards the end of your order and then email us your logo.
Proofs.
Will I get a proof of my Christmas Card?
This depends on what type of cards you order. If you are ordering a card from
the Yuletide Greetings or Caring
at Christmas ranges there is normally no need for a proof. We will make
sure that the greeting and "from" details are accurately reproduced
on your card. If you have opted to have a logo on cards from these ranges, or
if you are choosing the OwnDesign option,
we will send you a proof.
Inserts.
Do you print on inserts inside the Christmas Cards or directly onto the card?
As is quite usual with Corporate Christmas Cards, we commonly print onto an
inner sheet fixed into the Christmas Card. On run lengths over 1000, or when
production considerations require it, we may print directly onto the inside
of the card. The exception to this rule is Own
Design cards, which are normally printed directly onto the inside of the
card.
Turnaround
Times. How long will it take until I receive my printing?
Because of the high demand in a concentrated time period, Christmas Card orders
take a little longer than other types of printing. You should usually allow
2 - 3 weeks to receive your cards. You can check the progress of your order
online using our online tracking. Rest assured
that we know you need time to send your cards out. We only accept orders that
we can be sure of despatching to you in time to allow you to mail them out before
Christmas.
Mailing.
Can you mail my cards out for me?
Yes, if you have a high volume of cards to send out we can print your signature(s)
inside the card, and insert them into addressed envelopes, and arrange collection
by Royal Mail for you. Please contact us for the
charges for this service. If you are sending more than 4000 items, we are able
to use the Royal Mail Mailsort Service to secure you a discount on the regular
postage rate.
Samples.
Can I get a sample of a card I am interested in?
Certainly! You may request samples of up to two cards from the Yuletide Greetings
or Giving at Christmas ranges. (Bear in mind that you can click on the small
images of the Christmas Card designs to find out the size and description).
However we are happy to send you physical samples if required. Please follow the
instructions below:
