Hallmark Sketch Santa Cards

Can you imagine getting a Christmas card from Gary Barlow with a lovely message and a photograph?  That would brighten up my Christmas morning for sure!  Well, how about the next best thing, a Christmas card designed by Gary!  Or if you prefer, Tulisa, or the Saturdays or Matthew Wolfenden.  Because this year, these celebrities along with ITV's Lorraine and Aled have their very own card designs on the market.

Hallmark have teamed up with ITV's Daybreak to produce their official Text Santa charity Christmas cards. The pack of six cards includes five celebrity card designs, featuring a special message and a photo of the famous designer, plus a card designed by six year old prize winner Demi Holmes who designed the winning card in the Daybreak Sketch Santa competition.

The cards cost £1.99 with at least 50p going to Text Santa, the appeal that supports six charities offering life saving services to vulnerable people in the UK. They are available at Hallmark stores, online at hallmark.co.uk and in Asda.

I was sent a pack of these fabulous cards.  They are a good size, colourful and each card has added sparkle and a different greeting inside.  The back of the card has a message from the designer, a photo and information about the Text Santa appeal.  It is a nice way to contribute to and spread the word about this very worthy cause.
