Top Websites for Sentimental Christmas E-Cards

Let a loved one know you are thinking of them this holiday season with a sentimental Christmas e-card from one of these websites. Whether you accidentally left someone off your Christmas card list, or you just want to remind them how important they are to you, these Christmas e-cards will convey a holiday message filled with heartfelt affection.

Free Web Cards has some beautifully scenic Christmas e-cards. Once you choose a card from their eight-page selection, you can then add one of their lovely poems (or even a holiday recipe!), a musical accompaniment, and a personal message. Send this card to one person or to as many recipients as you like. (www.freewebcards.com)

You will find a wide variety of sentimental Christmas e-cards at 123 Greetings. From sweet to romantic to just plain cute, there is a holiday e-card appropriate for any loved one in your life. Send your best friend the "Your Friendship Is A Gift" e-card, which features two bears exchanging Christmas presents beneath a Christmas tree. Or surprise your mom with "A Biiig Tight Hug" from an adorable cartoon penguin. (www.123greeting.com)

The Hallmark website is an excellent source for holiday e-cards. They have a great selection of animated and wonderfully illustrated e-cards. The "Nature Celebrates Christmas" e-card plays the melody to the song "O Christmas Tree!" while small forest animals decorate, then stand back to admire, their own Christmas tree. Or consider the "Sharing Christmas with You" e-card, showing a lonely penguin who sets off for the outer space on Christmas to share his tree and Christmas gift with the moon. (www.hallmark.com)

With Card Fountain's talking e-cards, you can customize your holiday e-card with your own voice. These cards allow you to add your personal message for the character to speak or you call in to an electronic call center that will record your voice speaking that message. Card Fountain requires a membership fee of $13.95 a year, but if you send all of your holiday greetings online or send many e-cards throughout the year, the fee is worth it. (www.cardfountain.com)
