Advent Cards
Sep 21^st, 2020, 1:29pm

from a shopper ...

"I would like a Catholic Advent card - It would be one card. Maybe with a picture or drawing of a Catholic advent wreath on the cover. Something like “As we wait in joyful hope for the birth our Our Savior, Jesus Christ and inside would say: “May God bless and inspire you every day of your journey.”

The shopper will find these cards and other new Advent cards here:
Holidays >> Advent >> Religious

As this is a new category please consider other types of cards for Advent (for kids, photo cards, relation specific, etc.). If you choose to design a countdown advent calendar looking design please be specific in the Artist Notes that it does not function with windows / doors like a traditional Advent calendar.

NOTE: if you are not familiar with Advent, please take some time to research the symbolism and traditions of this holiday. See blog posting here:
