It is recommended to get your Holiday cards out anytime between now and Christmas day. Will yours be green?

This year, your Holiday Greeting Cards (which most people send out anytime between now and the end of the year) can be more eco-friendly. Get creative and seek to be different. And, feel free to share some of your ideas with us. We would love to hear them!

Here's how you can make Green Greetings:

• Send holiday wishes via e-mail. Scan in photos or drawings by yourself or your children.

• Use eCards. With places like eVite, you can let all those you know how much you care! Let the kids sit down with you and help you choose which layouts and colors to use. Upload a family picture in the space provided.

• Instead of sending standard greeting cards, decorate postcards and save envelopes. Besides, postage is cheaper for postcards! There are multiple companies that make eco-friendly postcards that you can print from home.

• What about eco-friendly wooden cards? These are unique and special, and still good to the earth!

• If you are a little more tech savvy or inclined to do your own design work and want to have some eco-friendly postcards made professionally, try to upload to a eco-friendly printer (most of these only take PDFs or Zip files).

Making creative, green greeting cards make a huge difference.
