Cute.  Only thing I wouldn't send out is anything that says "christmas" or anything that relates to religion.  I would hate to offend anyone.  I would suggest changing it to Holidays just to be safe.

I think it looks great!  I think its fine if you leave the Merry Christmas.  You write happy holiday inside the card.  Is it for your family and friends?

Yep, we're sending about 30 to close family and friends. We just moved and they don't have our new address yet. They all celebrate Christmas, so we aren't worried about that for this group. Thanks for the suggestions though. If we were sending them to more people we would definitely be more careful about that.

I think it's sad you can't say Merry Christmas to just anyone anymore.  I would accept someone saying Happy Hanukkah to me even though I'm not jewish.  It doesn't offend.  I'm just glad that someone was thinking enough to say/send it.  However when we send cards we send Happy Holidays just because we try to tie Christmas and New Years together.  We're not trying to NOT offend anyone.

My sister doesn't celebrate Christmas, but she still responds positively if/when someone says Merry Christmas to her or sends a card. I don't know why people get all worked up about it - someone cared enough to wish you a happywhatever, smile, say Happy Holidays or whatever you feel back, and move along.  My dad travels extensively, and he hands out candy canes to random people in the airport, at the hotel, etc and says Merry Christmas.  I don't think anyone has ever gotten upset with him either.

I'd only be concerned about this if you are sending cards to Jews, Muslims or athiests.

To keep it safe, and neutral, I wouldn't send anything but Happy Holidays.  There is too many religions out there, and some people  don't even celebrate religious holidays.  I rather stay neutral, I don't know what everyone religious stance is, and many times people keep that private.
