Rethink Holiday Cards
At GreenBy3 we usually avoid printing things that are likely to just end up in the trash (i.e. brochures, marketing materials). But as the holidays and the end of the year approached, we reflected on how much we sincerely like and appreciate our friends and business associates. We realized we wanted to send holiday cards. Not e-cards, but old-fashioned Christmas Cards that are signed by hand and arrive in the mail.
To send personal greetings with minimal impact on the environment, we designed our own reusable holiday card. When friends have enjoyed our card, they can pen their own message (if they like) and return it to us in the enclosed, self-addressed, stamped envelope.We’ll save the card and send it to them again next year – and the next year, and the next. This is the beginning of a fun holiday tradition shared with the people who make our business a pleasure all year.
Rethink, Reclaim, Revive, Return, Reuse!
We designed our card as a post card with plenty of room for messages on the back. It is printed on recycled card stock with chlorine-free ink. We even used Go Green Forever stamps for postage.
Plenty of room on this side to pen our greetings year after year.
These cards will not end up in the trash in January. And to further reduce our footprint, we won’t be ordering new cards next year. Our returnable, reusable card is good for the environment.
We were pleased to find a way to send our friends, clients and colleagues old-fashioned holiday wishes with an updated twist that makes it good for people, community and the environment. This will just be more fun as the years go by.
