A Selection of Christmas Garland/Wreath Cards 2021

What is a garland?  It can be a braid, knot or wreath made of flowers, leaves or other materials worn on the head, around the neck or hung for decoration.  We mainly think of wreaths with an assortment of flora and fauna constructed into a ring for funerals, cultural and religious occasions.  Therefore, I have chosen garlands to describe my designs.  Many are not full circles and of course other shapes can be used such as a heart, oval or an open sway to celebrate happier times.

A garland is such a gift design-wise, especially for greetings cards whether for Christmas, Birthday or Anniversary; this decorative border is perfect for framing a central message or an interesting scene.

I have curated a collection of some of the best Christmas garland/wreath cards I could find online – with some easy links if you want to make a quick purchase.

I start with the robin, which is always a Christmas favourite so here are a few with garlands.

This snowy scene has a robin perched on a wreath of white berries and cones.

This Christmas Robin Garland has a beautiful circle of autumn leaves and berries surrounding this sweet singing bird.

Staying with the wildlife subject, this fox has just turned to look at us in this snowy garland scene.

A box of Holiday Wreath Christmas Cards from Fortnum & Mason are a bit pricey but are foil stamped and embossed.

I like the die-cut on the front of this card outlining the garland which is finished with gold foil and ruby red sequins.

Joyeux Noel really stands out on this dark background.  A nice garland with deer antlers and flowers.

Unconventional, but why not a wreath of Christmas Lights!
