christmas cards - quotes and descriptions to inspire creative writing

Our Christmas cards were made of home-baked gingerbread with messages in bright icing.

I have a soft spot for Christmas cards, not sending them en mass, but to family, friends and neighbours. They come with such lovely greetings, all the more special for that additional ink, and make by far the best Christmas decorations, a bunting made of good wishes.

Every year the Christmas cards we gave to one another were home-baked cookies with funny messages in the icing. Then, as we ate them with hot-chocolates though the season, they reminded us how loved we are.

Our Christmas cards were homemade confections, the sweetest sweets, with seasonal messages of love written in icing and upon the bright ribbons.

My favourite Christmas card was a chocolate covered shortbread cookie, they were somewhat similar to fortune cookies carrying the words of love's wisdom.

Because our Christmas cards were edible sweet treats, we had all the confectionary, cakes and cookies we needed in the house for the entire festive season. Twice the love, half the expense, gotta love that.
