Cards covered in glitter, grrrrr!
Forgetting experience in previous years, I've just cheerily opened a Christmas card smothered in wretched glitter, which landed everywhere (including in my coffee), and now feel a tad lacking in festive goodwill towards the sender.
First World problem I know, but is it just me?

I rather like glittery cards, though I do accept they can make a mess.

If you get the glitter on your fingers and then it gets into your eyes it can be a problem.
There is no glitter on the cards which we have this year - just awesome landscapes.

Nope, me too.
I've stopped sending Christmas cards now.

I like glittery cards - it's when people chuck in a handful of those foil messages/ symbols that I get peeved - cos one doesn't realise they're there until they've escaped all over the floor and they are s*ds to pick up!
we are still sending cards - though only 33 in the post - the rest hand delivered.
Also a fair few via Jacqui Lawson
