"The Postal Service has been delivering the holidays for more than two centuries. We want to help simplify the holidays for our customers so they can spend more quality time with family and friends."
Holiday cards . . . and so much more. This holiday, send a message - one card at a time, or as many as you want - with the Postal Service's NetPost CardStore.

From printing, to addressing, to applying postage and delivery, NetPost CardStore does it all.
Using NetPost CardStore involves just a few simple steps:
- Log onto www.usps.com, and click on "NetPost CardStore."
- Select a 5x7 folded card from the gallery of thousands of professionally designed images. Or, create a card by scanning in your own photography or artwork.
- Customize your card online in minutes by adding a personal message. Then choose your favorite fonts, colors, and even the First-Class stamp that will adorn your holiday greeting.
Consumers who wish to hand-write a personal message in their cards can have the cards shipped to them with fully addressed, stamped envelopes. All that's left to do is write the greeting, seal the envelope and drop the card in the mail.
