Lang has been making Christmas cards since 1982, and the holiday line reflects the same commitment to artist-driven design that runs through the calendars and stationery. Cards are printed on substantial linen embossed stock that holds ink beautifully, arrives in reusable keepsake boxes, and features artwork from a deep roster of artists. Many customers choose a favorite artist every year and stick with them. Others mix across the line: something traditional for grandparents, something whimsical for friends, something serene for colleagues. Either way, the cards hold up as objects worth keeping, not just sending.

The Artists Behind the Cards

The Lang Christmas card collection draws from the same artist roster that makes the calendars collectible. Susan Winget is the most recognized name in the line, with warm florals, cardinals, and welcoming hand lettering that show up across boxed sets, pop-ups, and Luxe editions. Linda Nelson Stocks brings nostalgic village scenes and snow-lit windows that feel like memory on paper. Nicole Tamarin works in a playful, modern palette, while Lori Siebert and Lisa Audit bring pattern-rich, contemporary designs. Susan Bourdet is the go-to for detailed winter birds and quiet woodland moments. Beyond those names, the collection also features work from Jane Shasky, Terry Redlin, Laura Berry, Betty Whiteaker, Tim Coffey, Danielle Murray, and Lowell Herrero, among others. If you have a favorite from the calendar line, there's a good chance they have a card set here too.

Boxed Christmas Cards

Boxed Christmas cards are where most Lang customers start and return each year. Sets arrive with coordinated envelopes and a sturdy decorative box that protects corners before mailing and stores leftover cards neatly when the season ends. The 18-count boxes cover a typical mailing list without juggling multiple purchases, and the consistent design keeps your holiday mail feeling cohesive. The Pine Forest Boxed Christmas Cards by Susan Winget are a good example of what the format does well: classic winter imagery, generous writing space, coordinated envelopes, and a box worth keeping after the cards are gone. Inside, verses are set with enough margin that a short handwritten note doesn't feel cramped.

Pop-Up, Luxe, and Classic Cards

Beyond boxed sets, the collection offers a few formats worth knowing about. Pop-up cards are dimensional when opened, with detailed 3D scenes that make them worth displaying on a mantel rather than tucking into a pile. The Cardinal Christmas 3D Pop-Up Cards by Susan Winget are an 8-pack with her signature red cardinal imagery built into a scene that stands on its own. Luxe cards add foil and glitter embellishments to the standard linen embossed stock for extra sparkle, a good choice when the recipient is someone who notices the details. Classic cards are individual designs without a box, good for sending one meaningful card rather than a full set.

Quality Worth Sending

The paper and print quality in the Lang holiday line is part of what keeps customers coming back. Linen embossed stock feels substantial in hand and resists smudging from gel pens and fountain ink alike. Envelopes are sized for a clean seal and coordinated to the card design. Many recipients save Lang cards year after year because the artwork is genuinely worth keeping. That's not an accident: it's the same design standard that Lang has applied to the calendar line since 1982, carried into the holiday collection one season at a time.
