\"\"<\/a>Dans certains pays, les cartes de v\u0153ux de Christmas<\/a> parviennent \u00e0 leurs destinataires vers la fin d\u00e9cembre, ou sont tout simplement distribu\u00e9es dans les bureaux \u00e0 pareille date. Or, en France, la tradition diff\u00e8re, et les cartes s\u2019envoient plut\u00f4t avant No\u00ebl, id\u00e9alement vers la mi-d\u00e9cembre, afin que ceux qui les re\u00e7oivent puissent s\u2019\u00e9changer des v\u0153ux avant que ne d\u00e9bute la p\u00e9riode des grandes festivit\u00e9s. Certes, avec l\u2019arriv\u00e9e d\u2019Internet et des courriels, beaucoup ont opt\u00e9 pour l\u2019envoi par email, leur facilitant ainsi l\u2019envoi, et leur permettant d\u2019\u00e9conomiser les frais d\u2019affranchissement. <\/p>\n

En \u00e9tant parfaitement honn\u00eate, il faut reconna\u00eetre que les cartes de v\u0153ux de No\u00ebl virtuelles pr\u00e9sentent de nombreux avantages. Outre le co\u00fbt du timbre, elles existent en une tr\u00e8s grande vari\u00e9t\u00e9, sont fort jolies, et conviennent \u00e0 tous, aux membres de la famille, aux amis, aux coll\u00e8gues de travail, etc. Qui plus est, ces cartes virtuelles se dotent de plusieurs options, telles que le choix de la date d\u2019envoi, l\u2019ajout d\u2019une music<\/a>, d\u2019un timbre, d\u2019un message personnalis\u00e9, etc. Certaines d\u2019entre elles peuvent m\u00eame s\u2019accompagner d\u2019effets sp\u00e9ciaux, dont notamment l\u2019effet de neige, de vent, de lumi\u00e8re, ou m\u00eame avec un effet zoom ou panoramique. <\/p>\n

But did you know that a card sent by post is preferable to one sent by email? Indeed, a paper card, signed by you, shows that you care about the recipient and that this person is dear to you. The fact that you took a little time to choose a Christmas card for them, write a few personal notes, go to the post office and buy a stamp, clearly illustrates the importance you attach to this person, and to whom you send your best wishes. So this year, for the people you care about, opt for a card signed by you and sent by post.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

In some countries, Christmas cards reach their recipients around the end of December, or are simply distributed in offices at that time. However, in France, the tradition differs, and cards are sent before Christmas, ideally around mid-December, so that those who receive them can exchange
