Animated greeting cards are very common among people who send e-cards (greeting cards sent via email) and the most popular after birthdays are Christmas cards. Did you know that you can send free animated Christmas cards to anyone who has email anywhere in the world?
There are several sites on the web that offer a selection of free Christmas e-cards. Animated cards often require that the recipient click on an image on the screen to open the card and see the animation. One such site is: www.2care.com
You may see dancing reindeer, elves toiling away in Santa’s workshop, Santa’s sleigh sailing across the sky, a choir of angels, or maybe the wise men approaching the stable and many other Christmas scenes. These cards bring a smile to the face of anyone that sees them except maybe the Grinch!
Be aware that there are adult only animated cards also, so be careful if the kids are around when you check out these sites.
Many of the sites where you can go to send birthday and anniversary cards also have seasonal cards, Easter, Halloween and especially Christmas, all for free. You choose a card, type in your message and the recipient’s name and e-mail and your name and e-mail. Most sites send you an e-mail confirmation that your card has been delivered. Once you have selected your e-card it only takes a minute or two to send it.
There are free cards with elegant designs and some with just plain funny cards and everything in between.
One might wonder how these sites survive without charging for the e-cards. After all, someone has to design the cards and they have to pay for the space. They make their money from advertisers who pay for the space on the site. So if you want your favorite e-card site to stay around, take a look at the advertisements that actually pay for your free animated Christmas cards.
