A Christmas card with familiar faces, made especially for someone you love!
Send me your favourite photo(s) and I'll turn them into a personalised illustrated A5 Christmas card, complete with your chosen names and festive message.
Make it from you, a couple, your family or the pet who is always part of the celebrations. Choose one, two, three or four illustrated heads, with any combination of people and pets; each person or pet counts as one face.
CHOOSE YOUR DESIGN
• C01 Festive Confetti.
• C02 Holly & Berries.
• C03 Merry & Bright.
• C04 Winter Stars.
Choose your favourite festive style and tell me your exact front wording and the names you would like included.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
• One personalised A5 folded card.
• One, two, three or four head illustrations, according to the option you choose.
• Your chosen names and front wording.
• A white envelope.
• A small selection of FREE matching head-shaped paper confetti with your card order.
• A digital proof to check before printing, with one reasonable amendment included, if you select the proof option.
• A blank inside for your handwritten message, or a printed inside message for an additional fee.
OPTIONAL MATCHING EXTRAS
Why not add a little extra using the same illustration as your card?
• 6 × 2-inch head-shaped stickers.
• 12 × 2-inch head-shaped stickers.
• A magnet keepsake featuring your illustrated artwork.
Choose your card on its own or select an extra when ordering. These optional extras are available for an additional fee and use the illustration created for your card. If your card includes more than one face, let me know if you would like a particular split of the sticker quantity.
A LITTLE EXTRA FROM ME
I include a small selection of matching confetti heads free with your card order, as a little finishing touch for the celebration. Each loose paper head has a white border following its shape. Scatter them around the card or add them to your gift presentation!
THE ILLUSTRATION
I draw the head and facial features with digital pen outlines, then fill the shapes with solid colours. I keep the individual eye shapes, smile, hair and recognisable details, giving your card a colourful illustrated finish without shading. The illustration features the head only.
HOW TO ORDER
1. Choose your Christmas design, number of faces and blank or printed-inside option. Select any optional extras and whether you would like a digital proof.
2. Enter your exact Christmas message and the names you would like included, including who the card is from. Add your inside message if selected.
3. Upload your photo(s) when ordering.
4. If you selected a digital proof, check it when I send it. I'll then print and post your card. If you have not selected a proof, I'll prepare and print your card using the photos and details you provide.
CHOOSING YOUR PHOTO
Please send a clear photo taken in good light, with the whole face and hair or ears visible. Avoid blurry images, heavy filters or anything covering the face. Separate photos are welcome when you are including more than one person or pet. If you are unsure which photo to use, send me a message and I'll help you choose.
YOUR PROOF — IF SELECTED
If you select the digital proof option, I aim to send it through Etsy Messages within 1–5 days of receiving your photos and complete personalisation details.
Please check the illustration, names and wording carefully and reply within 24 hours. One reasonable amendment is included. If I do not receive a reply within 24 hours, I will print the card as shown in the proof.
A replacement photo or a completely new illustration may need an additional quote.
PRINTING AND DELIVERY
Your physical card, white envelope and any selected extras will be packed protectively and posted using the service you choose at checkout.
Please check the current dispatch and delivery estimates before ordering; the proof window is separate from delivery time. If you need your card for a particular date, message me first so I can check availability.
EXTRA COPIES
Would you like another identical card? An extra copy using the same illustration, design and wording is £2. Please message me before ordering so I can arrange the correct price.
MAKE IT A MATCHING CHRISTMAS
Why not also get matching decorations featuring the same illustrated faces? I also make personalised confetti, cupcake toppers, straws and bunting to make your Christmas gathering a little more personal.
Message me if you would like help choosing matching pieces. Full decoration packs are available separately.
PLEASE NOTE
The examples show the design and illustration style; your card will be made using your own photo and wording. Colours may look slightly different on screen and in print.
This listing is for the physical card and envelope, with any optional extras you select. A digital artwork file is not included.
