Today is National Christmas Card Day… and did you know the VERY FIRST ONE came out over 180 years ago in London? It featured a drawing of a family at a dinner table…with the words “Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year”
A simple, but effective message… But now? That’s not good enough – Modern Christmas Cards can be wacky & humorous… as well as being sweet & sentimental.
Like for example… one features a group of Homeowners Association Carolers, standing outside a house singing:
We WISH you would Paint Your House Beige
We WISH you would Paint Your House Beige
You BETTER paint your House Beige
OR YOU WILL BE FINED!
Ok, I may have made that one up… But would you be able to TELL which other Christmas Greetings are real… during a special “HALLMARK or HALL-SNARK” edition of Plenty of Twenty?
