While there is a Christmas card for anyone out there, and the themes and niche Christmas cards you get can cover anything, sometimes it's still hard to generate some Christmas card ideas, so I thought I'd put together a few Christmas card themes to get those creative juices flowing.

And speaking of creative juices, what about handmade Christmas cards? All you need is some glue, scissors, stencils, ribbon, glitter, beads, stickers, paper and rhinestone ... oh, yeah, also children or grandchildren, to make all of that work. Along with a mess, you're sure to see a lot of creative ideas and interesting handmade Christmas cards emerge from that idea.

Christmas cards are just a lot of fun, and whether you buy or make them, they are a delight for those who eagerly await a Christmas message for you.

And lest I forget, for those of you who enjoy sending a Christmas card more than one way, there's always the Internet and Christmas e-cards to jam up the e-mail boxes of your family and friends.

Anyway, here's a few Christmas card ideas and themes to give a few ideas on what's out there. 

If you have a friend or loved one that loves dogs, what a better way to send a holiday message than a dog Christmas card theme. If you have a photo of their favorite pooch, then you could even have a photo card made that they would really appreciate.

Now if someone has a favorite cat, they're just as apt to enjoy a Christmas card with a cat on it, or a photo Christmas card like mentioned above. Just like a dog owner, cat owners are thrilled to get a cat Christmas card representing their feline friends.

With Christmas being a Christian holiday and the source of Christmas, it's always a great idea to send Christians a Christmas card with a Christian theme. It always works and will be appreciated for you thoughtfulness and relevance to their faith.

If you're a little bit crafty or just enjoy making things with your children or grandchildren, a handmade Christmas card is a great way to express holiday wishes, and if it is made for parents or grandparents, it'll be the most important of all, no matter what shape it ends up in.

Funny and humorous Christmas cards are a delight for the recipients, and like the one below, bring a smile to the face and are also a lot of fun to send, knowing the response it'll elicit when it's opened.

Many people love horses, and even if they aren't owners, horse Christmas cards are a really nice greeting cards theme to include at Christmas time. Horses always seem to work for holiday seasons, and horse Christmas cards are among the best.

Lighthouse Christmas cards always stand out because of the connection between them and Christ being the light of the world. There are a lot of compelling lighthouse Christmas cards, and you can understand why seeing the one below.

Tropical Christmas cards are always great because of the fun way they contrast Santa on the beach or something like that, while knowing he spends all his working time at the North Pole in the cold.

Motorcycle Christmas cards are a really great theme greetings card, and if the one you're sending it to rides or enjoys them in any way, they'll really be thankful and delighted when they receive it. Just look at the one below with Santa riding the motorcycle. If you don't like motorcycles before, you're sure to like them after seeing this great motorcycle Christmas card.

I have to stop there before I get too carried away and put up 20 cards or so. You get the idea. There's no end to the number of Christmas cards you can choose from, and some are very reverent, and others, well, not so reverent. Either way, they all have a message and are a joy to discover and send to family and friends.
