Cards

What would Christmas be without Christmas cards, or the anxiety that goes with deciding who to send them to and who to leave out? Because this time of year is a time for forgiveness, why not buy a few extras and spread it around, even if Stephanie—your second cousin twice removed on your father’s side—didn’t send you one last year, though you’ve been sending her your Christmas letter for years.

• Anyway, El Designo—an environmentally conscious design studio with a fixation on Lucha Libre wrestling—has put out a series of cards entitled "Gastrointestinal," which illustrates what Santa has been eating. If you’ve ever been curious about what the big guy puts into himself, or you just want to see a cute Santa full of cookies, these could be the ones for you. Available at Carbon (10184 - 104 Street).

Jill Stanton’s hand-screened cards on recycled paper are another way of showing the people you love just how much you care about them. With their large, fun fonts, they’re another good way to inject a little extra life into an already heady time of year. Available through jstanton.ca.
