Can You Print Your Own Christmas Cards?

The short answer to this question is simple. Yes. We've been able to print our own Christmas cards ever since they came out with The Print Shop for the old Apple II computers on dot matrix printers. While these were cool for a while and became cool again when the color ink jet printers came out, they were still a little on the cheesy side. However, buying great looking card stock and coming up with your own words to go inside is a very nice way to print your own Christmas cards that don't look like the old, cheesy ones from the past.
When we first had the ability to print holiday cards, dot matrix printers were king, ink jets didn't exist and laser printers were insanely expensive. Even if you decided to print them off, they looked very rough, but the novelty of being able to print your own cards was worth it. The other drawback was it took forever to print each one since you were printing both the outside and the inside. Because it took so long, it made the entire process a very tedious one.
When ink jet printers came out, especially the color ones, the process sped up some and the cards looked better since you ...
... could use color, but it was still a time consuming process. Another drawback to the ink jet printer was actually the cost. Because of the amount of ink used, especially the colored inks, the cost per card could actually be over a dollar per card. This could be very frustrating when you ran out of ink right in the middle of printing your own Christmas cards.
The main drawback to this process was the fact that you were printing your \"cards\" on regular printer paper and folding them yourself. Not only did this make for a flimsy card but getting the things folded right was as much a matter of luck as it was skill. Today, however, we can actually print our own cards and have them customized to say what we want and still have a great looking card to send out to our friends and family.
This is because there are lots of truly great looking card blanks that have no message inside. They are designed to be fed through a laser or ink jet printer and you can download a template for your favorite word processor so you can custom design your own message. You can even change the message from card to card so each person on your Christmas card list gets their own personal card. Printing your own holiday cards is an easy, straight forward process, is quick and gives you that custom Christmas card that everyone appreciates.
