Historic Puritan Christmas Cancelled Holiday Card
Treat your loved ones to this fun, timely history themed Puritan Christmas card, remembering the period in the 17th Century, during the rule of Oliver Cromwell, when Christmas festivities were banned by Parliament. The ban was incredibly unpopular, and the verse on the front of the card comes from a ballad, of the time, called 'The World Turned Upside Down', criticising the new laws. In reality, many people simply ignored the ban and continued to celebrate. In 1660, with the Restoration, it was revoked, yet, the message again seems fitting for the current times we are living in. (P.S. Mince Pies were technically only banned in 1644 when Christmas fell on a legally-mandated fast day.)

The card is such good quality, the print is beautifully glossy with deep blacks and rich colours. Made with strong card, I will be buying more for Christmas!! The design looks fantastic. Image quality was amazing, the colours were bang on.

This lovely card met all my high expectations and needs for a very special Christmas card for my very special sister. I highly recommend using the easy tool to create a product to meet all your own requirements. 5 stars are appropriate, thank you! The design, the exact colours and specified finish were all translated into a high quality product.

Folded Holiday Card, Size: Small, 10.2 cm x 14.2 cm, Paper: Signature Matte
It's good to get your own expressions, and humour, printed on an Xmas card instead of the insincerely corny stuff found in the shop-bought ones.
