Christmas might feel like it's still ages away but, trust us, getting your cards sorted early is one of those small wins that'll make December so much easier.
We've just launched this year's Christmas card collection and, honestly, we're pretty excited for the festive season already!
Our classic Christmas characters make a comeback
It wouldn't be a Cancer Research UK Christmas without our ever-popular Highland Cow characters, and this year is no exception.
Clover the Highland Cow makes her debut in adorable style by featuring on our packs of 10 or 20 cards. Be sure to look out for her on a wide range of gifts, tableware and decorations coming soon.
Carrot-lovers will love Humphrey the Hare as he hops into the festivities with a gift of his favourite vegetable, and Titch the Tiny Mouse brings his little contribution to the decorations to bring some festive cheer.
47 designs to choose from
With a great mix of traditional and contemporary designs, each one of them designed in Yorkshire, there's plenty of options to choose from and something for everyone with prices starting from just £2.99 for 10 cards.
As well as our character cards, here are a few of our other favourites this year:
Holy Night is a beautiful, traditional Nativity scene but with contemporary twist - two flaps on each side open out to give the card a wonderful, 3-dimensional look.
Twilight Tree is a perfect choice if you want something striking but simple, suitable for lovers of the contemporary and traditional alike. Its decoration also includes the Cancer Research UK brand colours - a subtle nod to your chosen charity.
Siarad Cymraeg? This card is also available in a Welsh bilingual version, too, along with 5 other designs.
If you prefer something a bit more understated, Stunning Silver Tree Trio might be more your style. It's a gorgeous minimalist design with bare tree branches but highlighted with shimmering red foil starts. Really elegant without being fussy.
Looking for something for the kids to send in the classroom? This pack of 30 Assorted Children's Christmas cards is ideal. The smaller cards are great for little hands, and the box has a velcro dot to keep them from falling out in a school bag.
Finally, we have some classic comedy with our humorous Fork Handles card. Depicting four garden forks topped with lit candles, it's a funny throwback that'll definitely appeal to certain members of the family! (If you're looking for some festive candles, we'll have those in stock soon, too!)
All our cards and their packaging are also printed on FSC®-certified board and are fully recyclable. Bonus!
Why get them now?
We know it's still August, but here's the thing: the best designs always sell out first!
Don't leave it until the last minute. Buy your cards now and you'll have plenty of time to write proper messages instead of just scribbling "Merry Christmas" in a rush before the last post.
Every purchase powers progress
Every single item you buy from our Online Shop helps fund life-saving cancer research.
All our profits go straight to Cancer Research UK's work, so your season's greetings are helping us to bring about a world where everybody lives longer, better lives, free from the fear of cancer.
Not bad for a Christmas card, right?
There's more to come
This is just the start. Our full Christmas range (think gifts, decorations, wrapping paper, the works) launches on 1st September, so don't forget to head back and browse the collection and see what catches your eye - your future December self will thank you for it.
