What you get, and how many packs to order
A pack is 10 identical cards: the same photo and the same text on all ten. A6 size, 10.5 × 14.8 cm, 300 gsm paper, $26.00 with shipping included.
- Make your list before you order: family, friends, neighbours, colleagues, the childminder, the sports club. Round up to the next ten and keep two or three spare cards for the people you forgot.
- Two photos, two packs: a family photo for the people close to you, a more understated photo for work. Each pack carries its own photo.
- For a business: one pack per team or per client list, with a photo of the team. To go further, see personalised corporate merchandise.
Which photo for a New Year card
A card gets looked at for two seconds, then sits on a fridge or a mantelpiece for weeks. The photo has to read from a distance:
- This year's family photo: everyone, well lit, framed tightly enough that the faces are recognisable on 10.5 × 14.8 cm.
- Christmas dinner or the tree: a photo taken on 25 December makes for very up-to-date wishes, if you order straight afterwards.
- The baby born this year: their first New Year card doubles as news. For more ideas, see baby's first Christmas.
- The dog or the cat: for cards signed by the pet, see dog and cat photo cards.
- A landscape from the year: where you went on holiday, the snow outside the house. Useful for more understated cards, for work.
A busy background? The free Remove background (AI) button cuts out the people. A photo that's a little small? Make the photo sharper (AI) helps.
What to write: "Happy New Year 2027" and variations
On an A6 card, the printed text fits on one line, two at most. The rest you write by hand.
- "Happy New Year 2027": the classic, clear to everyone.
- "Best wishes for 2027" or "Here's to 2027": a slightly softer tone.
- The family name under the greeting: "Happy New Year 2027, love from the Martins". Your recipients know at a glance who the card is from.
- "2027" in large figures: the big-number template (« Gros chiffre » in the studio) makes the year the star, with the other words kept discreet.
- Sending before Christmas: "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year", with the Christmas template (« Joyeux Noël » in the studio) or Let it snow. In the US, "Happy Holidays" works too.
The ready-made text styles take care of the layout; the family template (« Famille » in the studio) and the Polaroid template dress up the photo with no effort.
When to send them, and when to order
Printing and delivery take 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere. Three possible timetables:
- Season's greetings, before Christmas: in Europe, order before Thursday 10 December, and ideally in late November so you have time to write and post them before the holidays. Outside Europe, order in November.
- New Year cards in January, the simplest option: order in early December, write your cards over the holidays, and post them in the first days of January.
- Cards with your Christmas photo: order from 26 December with the photo from Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. Count working days, not calendar days: the cards will arrive during January, later outside Europe.
Mistakes to avoid
- Thinking the 10 cards have different photos: a pack is 10 identical cards. Several photos, several packs.
- Writing 2026 instead of 2027: check the preview before confirming; that's the mistake that shows on every single card.
- A group photo that's too wide: on an A6 card, the faces become tiny. Crop in.
- Printing too much text: a full sentence is hard to read. Keep the personal message for your handwriting.
- Ordering exactly the number you need: there's always a neighbour or an aunt you forgot. Keep a small margin.
Prices include shipping, no minimum order. Printed to order near the delivery address, delivered in 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere.
