Dozens of new printable Christmas cards have been added to the website FreePrintableGreetingCards.net, and now its sister site, SantaPrintables.com, has also added Christmas cards to its selection of printable letters from Santa.

The 28 new designs at FreePrintableGreetingCards.net include reindeer, Santa Claus, nutcrackers, elves and presents as "Seasons Greetings" winter designs such as snowmen and snowflakes. There are also cards for Hanukkah.

SantaPrintables.com, which launched in 2008 and has more than 40 printable letters from Santa to choose from, now has a variety of printable Christmas cards conveniently available at the site. Those designs include lots of reindeer, Christmas trees, and, of course, Santa Claus.

"While many people go straight to FreePrintableGreetingCards.net to download cards for the winter holidays and year-round, I decided to add cards to SantaPrintables.com so users of that site could have immediate access to attractive, printable cards," explained Kevin Savetz, the sites' creator. "It's a new category on the site."

SantaPrintables.com is a convenient way for friends and family of children (and even grown-ups) to instantly download and print letters from Santa on colorful Christmas stationery. There are free PDF versions to print as-is and $5 customizable DOC versions that can be typed into in Microsoft Word. Letter topics include: baby's first Christmas, letters for Christmas morning, letters for kids with concerns (like the lack of a chimney, or questioning whether Santa exists) and even letters for the family pets.

The greeting cards are free to download and print in PDF form at both sites, or $5 for a customizable DOC version at SantaPrintables.com; $4 per design at FreePrintableGreetingCards.net.

"Once a card is downloaded, it can be printed as many times as the user wants, making it an affordable way to reach everyone on your Christmas list from the convenience of your home or office," Savetz said.

There are more than 60 sites in the FreePrintable.net family of free printables sites created by Savetz Publishing, Inc., a company devoted to creating useful and informative web sites of interest to consumers and small businesses.
