How do I order my Christmas cards?
answer
You can personalise your cards using our step by step ordering process, click on the "Christmas Cards" link on our homepage and follow the instructions presented to you. Once you have completed the order process we then create your card design and send you a preview of the final product for you to approve (previews are produced as PDF files which require Acrobat Reader to view). Nothing will be printed until the design has been approved by you. Once the cards meet your approval let us know by sending us an email to info@christmasnetwork.co.uk and we will send them to the delivery address you specified.

Supporting a Charity
question
How do I support a charity with my card order?
answer
If you choose a charity 10p (ex VAT) for every card you purchase will be donated to the charity you specify. So, if you purchase 250 cards and choose Marie Curie Cancer Care during the ordering process, we will donate £25 to them. We will also print the 'Sold in Aid of' logo for your specified charity inside your cards too, so your customers, friends and family are aware of the charity you have chosen to support.
question
Can I support more than one Charity?
answer
Yes you can, one step of the ordering process allows you to support all of our charities. Your 10p per card donation will be split evenly rather than going solely to one.
