Paper Christmas Cards

I've seen some websites that offer recycled cards, but they are really expensive. I'd like to find some that are more affordable.

Make a simple, yet elegant, Christmas card this year using the Cricut and some gorgeous Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses paper! Core'dinations ...

I still write Christmas Cards but get most of the Christmas Wishes by email :(
I used to love all those cards next to the tree.

I still do real cards and most of my friends do too. Email cards arent quite the same- you cant stand them on your tables and mantlepieces in the same way. Merry Christmas!

The nice thick stuff used for some Christmas cards is called card stock. I hope this answers your question. Sometimes they use other decorative papers for the top, but the base is usually card stock.

Obs: 20 realms of regular paper = 01 tree
So, how many trees are used to make 01 realm or 01 Kg of paper-carton?

One tree would make about 55,000 Christmas cards, one card would requie 0.000018 of a tree. 34,420 trees needed to make the Christmas cards sent in the US each year.

• Most paper is made of pine
• A typical pine tree has a mass of about 2000kg
• Two thirds of the mass is cellulose, one third is water
• Therefore 1333kg of timber per pine tree
• Approx half the timber is lingrin, knots etc
• So from a 2000kg tree, 667kg is pulped
• Standard paper weighs 80g/m²
• 667kg would produce 8,333 m² of regular paper
• Standard US size of a sheet of paper is 279 x 216mm
• 1m² of paper would produce 16.594 sheets of paper
• 8,333 x 16.594 ≈ 138,000 sheets of paper per tree
• Assume Christmas card is printed on 200gsm paper
• Assume a Christmas card, folded flat, is a bit smaller than a standard sheet of paper
• 138,000 / 200 (gsm card) * 80 (gsm paper) ≈ 55,200
• 1.9 billion cards sent each year in the US
• 1,900,000,000 / 55,200 ≈ 34,520
