Japanese Christmas Cards are wonderful !
They take a different cultural look at the holiday season.
Beautiful, clever, funny, pop-up and usually musical.
Often it involves Santa lots of Santas everywhere.
Over the years son has sent me wonderful cards that I set out every year.
Here are a few photos from last year.
.
Santa and woodland animals are sitting in front of a Christmas tree.
Push the button on the right and blue light travel down the tree
and three Christmas song play in a row.
It is my favorite and it has lasted for 7 years.

The same year he sent me this one. He thought I need two great cards.
This one the tree lights blink and 3 Santa twirl, there are 14 Santas plus reindeers in the snow.
Son wrote me,
" be thankful you don't have a crazy kid around to press the play button non-stop like me"
The card plays 12 songs.

This one doesn't play music or light up.
It is a three layer that pop-out.
The scene is of Osaka and has 75 tiny Santas running around.

Wow! Am just thinking about making my Christmas cards! By the way - latest on chickens they are now all over the moulting period and should be back laying their wonderful eggs soon! Dxxxx
ReplyDeleteMine are done... late for me, I folded them yesterday and will cut them today.
DeleteI need to print out the stickers my self. I forgot to have them printed with the cards on Monday.
Glad to hear the chicken have finally stopped the moulting.
They are very creative cards!
ReplyDeleteI like that key finder!
Every year I bring them out and get to enjoy them again with much joy.
DeleteLovely cards. So is the Scotty.
