Funny Christmas Cards Stand Out Best

Christmas cards are a pretty big deal. According to a recent post on JSTOR, Americans purchase more than 1.6 billion holiday cards every year. That means if you want to stand out from the pack, you've got to make them laugh.

A funny card can stay hanging from the fridge 'til May while the family photo will typically get filed away in a week.

Whether you're a fan of slightly raunchy cards or looking for something funny-yet-family-friendly, there's surely something on our list that will tickle your funny bone.

What Kind of Humor is Appropriate on a Christmas Card?

When selecting a holiday card, there are a couple of things to keep in mind. Think about your own humor and sensibility, as well as those of your intended recipients. You might think a card with off-color language is hilarious, but if your grandma is on your card list, she might be less impressed.

Keep In Mind the Quantity Too

It's also important to take note of how many cards are sold in a pack. You may want to select a card design that's sold in multiples that make sense for the total number of cards you want to send out.

For example, if you have exactly 50 cards to send out, you might not want to select a set of cards that come in boxes of 12, because you'd have to buy four boxes to get to 48 cards, plus an additional box to get to 50. There would be a few leftover cards, which you may want to avoid as a cost-saving measure.

Most Christmas cards come with envelopes, but it's always good to double-check because finding envelopes is an added stress (and an added cost).

Some sets of cards come with exactly the same number of cards as envelopes, while others include one or two extra envelopes, to give you coverage in the event of a leaky pen or an incorrect address.

Be sure to keep all these factors in mind and you'll find the perfect cards for you.
