Did you know that Brits send around 1 billion Christmas cards each year, and, when decorations are taken down, these will likely go to the bin? Me&McQ newly launched luxury 3D Christmas card collection is designed to last.

For this festive season, UK leading card-maker Me&McQ presented their new collection of 3D luxury Christmas cards worth cherishing for the time to come.


About The Brand: Me&McQ

Me&McQ has been producing exquisite 3D greeting cards for nearly 40 years, winning two prestigious Louie Awards for their efforts along the way, and is now the UK’s leading producer of stand-up cards. The maker believes that greeting cards are for more than just a moment, but a gift and keepsake that family members and friends can keep on the mantle or place in the trophy cabinet, and cherish for years to come.

Why Making Greeting Cards To Last Longer?

It is estimated that in the UK, circa 1 billion Christmas cards are sent every year. However, with only one in four of these cards going on to be recycled, when it comes to taking down the decorations nearly 30,000 tons of cards are thrown away and forgotten about come January. With this figure in mind, Me&McQ's new collection stands out as a positive takeaway wrapped and delivered for the jolliest of the season.

Me&McQ 2023 Luxury Christmas Collection

You can send your seasonal greetings or accompany your Christmas gifts with an artistic card made by Me&McQ. This year’s luxury Christmas collection features 45 designs, carefully collaborating with previous year’s best sellers with 12 newly recognisable designs. Inspired by quintessential British countryside scenes, iconic festive themes, magical fairytales and their Chocolate Labrador Fable, every card in the collection tells its own very individual story. There is a card for everyone too: from the traditional to the whimsical, including Santa exploring his garden shed, to sleighs topped high with presents. The Santa Express setting out to deliver gifts, to a London double-decker bus busy with festive animals, as well as a tartan Christmas car, cosy Christmas cottages and a gingerbread house. The 2023 collection also features festive-inspired lanterns, a nativity scene and winter animal displays to choose from.

Also included in this year’s Christmas luxury collection is the perfect stocking filler, a ‘Let It Snow’ story-book written by author Lauren Everdell of Ubiquitous Books. Illustrated by artist Reuben McHugh, "Let It Snow" has its own Me&McQ keepsake card to match and tells the story of a proud, free-spirited cat that soon learns a life lesson from his closest friend about a warm welcome.
