Christmas cards – especially for business – used to be ropey affairs, complete with a cartoon Santa and comic sans. Not anymore they aren’t! Our customers are much more sophisticated and demand a design that reflects their business style. So, if you’re in the market for a personal touch you can send to your sales list, look no further, check our guide to the trends that are taking 2016 by storm and leaving customers everywhere with a great impression.

Christmas Card Style Guide

1. Mix it up with pattern and colour
Mixing and matching shapes with bold colour choices can create the right impression fresh out of the envelope. Ask your designer to start with your company colours to enhance and reinforce your brand identity in a new and exciting way.

2. Overlapping colours
Overlapping colours is a trend that won’t go away anytime soon and it’s an impressive effect that is easily achievable by our incredible technology that delivers on both sharpness and vibrancy.

3. Hand drawn
With lots of independent businesses wanting to get across their local, social credentials, hand drawn messages are the best way to achieve that homespun feeling. You can ask an illustrator to help you achieve this very bespoke effect to be truly authentic.

4. Ombre
Graduating the colour across the background has been around for a few years now, but it continues to be a popular effect for its hand drawn, bespoke qualities. It’s a simple but striking effect where beautiful colours blend to achieve a touch of elegance. Use your business or company colours to make it recognisably your own.

5. Hand written
Especially if you’re going for a chalkboard or calligraphy effect. The chalk effect is much more homely, warm and inviting, ideal for a local retail vibe, and there are lots of styles you can emulate to make the message – whether a festive wish or Christmas carol lyric – truly your own. Calligraphy gives a much more stylish impression, which is perfect if your business provides professional services, for example, or you’re going for a much more upmarket feel.

We hope we’ve inspired you – when it comes to Christmas cards, the world is your oyster. What you shouldn’t have to make decisions about are compromising on quality or paying over the odds. So, trust Trade Digital Print to reassure you on those points and more:
