  • JibJab offers online cards all year round, but they are perhaps known best for their seasonal Elf Yourself line. It’s easy to take any photo and turn it into a customized card with the JibJab cropping tools. Even if you don’t send it out, it’s really a blast to try!
  • 123 Greetings has hundreds of general seasonal e-cards with specific greetings covering Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa and New Year’s. Most cards have animation and sound.
  • Egreetings lets you personalize a card and then send it to your e-mail address book or your Facebook friends.
  • Blue Mountain offers Christmas, Hanukkah and New Year’s Cards. A few of their e-cards are free, but a monthly membership gives access to all of their electronic cards, as well as their "create and print" options. 

Whether you're looking for Celine Dion to sing your holiday card or if you're seeking a goofy card featuring your family dressed like elves, sending an electronic greeting is an easy way to spread the joy of the season.
