The first Christmas card was sent in the early 1600s, and until recently, the classic paper stationery hadn’t changed all that much. But now it’s time for a much-needed update, and this twist offers gorgeous designs as well as a built-in way for friends and family to display your season’s greetings.
Check out these 27 Christmas Card Magnets that are so special, the people lucky enough to receive a copy will want to keep it on their fridge all winter long.

5. Cheery Surround
Botanicals aren’t just for spring and summer anymore. Floral lovers will appreciate the bountiful greenery and winter berries that trail along the outer edges of Cheery Surround. A “Merriest Christmas” greeting waltzes across the top of the design, and there’s a space for your family name and the year underneath your choice of two holiday-ready photos.

Festive Forest is contemporary yet charming — just what you need when you want to wish friends and family a happy holiday while sticking to your signature aesthetic.
8. Joyus Grid
Plaid and Christmas go hand in hand like cookies and milk or Santa and his reindeer. It makes sense then that Joyus Grid is built on a crisscrossed plaid pattern topped with the perfect decorative flair: a picture of your family. Switch up the coloring of the background grid to match your outfits or your favorite color, or play with raised foil add-ons for some extra sparkle.
9. Snowflake Spaces
It’s beginning to look a lot like a really great Christmas Card Magnet! Snowflake Spaces hits all the right notes thanks to red and green blocking, white snowflakes, and your most treasured pics of you and yours. The magnet brings the joy. You bring the love.
10. Merriest Memory
Merriest Memory is all about your family. The entire magnet is based on your photograph, with a text overlay sending recipients holiday wishes and displaying your name and the year. Customize the coloring, add foil, and play with the layout for next-level personalization.
11. Festive Bitmap
Tech-minded couples and families invested in STEM will notice something a little different about Festive Bitmap. Instead of Christmas trees and gold stars, this magnet is decorated with holiday-hued pixels. An off-center image of your choice completes this very appealing package.
12. Fruitful Garland
'Tis the season for Fruitful Garland, a Christmas Card Magnet brimming with tradition. Your photo sits front and center ensconced in a circular frame. Holiday greetings, your name, and the year are all prominently displayed, but it’s the lush evergreen boughs and berries stretched across the four corners of the design that truly amp up the festive vibe.
13. Fine Line
Have a blue, blue Christmas — not emotionally, but because you chose Fine Line and its rich, blue color scheme. This modern design is simple and crisp, working equally well as a mailer to friends and family or to send holiday wishes to colleagues and clients. Overlapping photos and a mixture of fonts add just the right amount of softness.
14. Vibrant Fun
Polka dots for Christmas? Absolutely! Vibrant Fun is taking over the world of holiday stationery with a burst of rainbow coloring and festive fonts.

15. Big Bold Joy
Choose Big Bold Joy as your Christmas Card Magnet this year, and you have a chance to put the “O” in “joy” — literally. The middle letter in this card’s central message doubles as a picture frame, incorporating your family in the sweetest way possible. Feel free to switch up the background color if another hue feels more celebratory to you.
16. Feliz Navidad
Send your holiday wishes in Spanish, giving a nod to your culture and Christmas cheer at the same time. Feliz Navidad features colorful typography across the top of the design, plus a trio of photos and room for everyone’s name at the bottom.
17. Colorful Christmas
Colorful Christmas is like a confetti cannon of happiness. The oversized photo brings fantastic personalization to the big, bold lettering wishing loved ones Merry Christmas. This magnet design delivers oodles of style, fun, and hearty holiday cheer.
18. Modern Snapshots
When you can’t choose between all your favorite photos, opt for a Christmas card design that accepts as many pics as possible. Modern Snapshots has room for five of your most prized images, including a larger center frame and four smaller accent photos, so you can highlight different people, events, or photoshoot setups.
19. Slim Square
Simple, streamlined, and classic, Slim Square echoes the traditional Christmas cards of yore. The striking red top gives way to a prominently placed photo of your choice, creating a design that’s memorable yet sweetly conservative.
20. Painted Tradition
Painted Tradition celebrates the tradition of impressionist artists rather than the traditional stylings of St. Nicholas, but that’s what makes this design so creative and striking. Abstract swaths of color come together for a soft and elegant illustration that helps enhance the beauty of your own photograph situated in the magnet’s foreground. Simple lettering shares the date, your Christmas greeting, and your names with plenty of white space for a majorly sophisticated result.
21. Abstract Tree
Just as the name suggests, Abstract Tree is all about a unique, modern take on the classic Christmas tree. This time, the tree is more like a triangle anchoring two photos and a sweet holiday message. You can change up the color scheme, too, just in case you’re feeling like a purple or pink tree this year.
22. Holiday Home
If you completed a major move in the last year or just want to show off your new house, Holiday Home could be the perfect Christmas Card Magnet for you. Pick a photo of your new property, plop it into this professionally crafted template, and the scripted message on the bottom will say the rest.
23. Meowy Christmas
We wish you a Meowy Christmas, we wish you a Meowy Christmas, we wish you a Meowy Christmas and a Happy New Year! Attention all kitty lovers, this is the purrrfect way for you to send out a sprinkle of holiday joy from you and your four-legged friend (or friends). Peep the little cat ears and wispy little whiskers!
24. So Jolly
Five letters, one festive message. So Jolly is as elegant as it is simple, with one line of text and your image doing all the heavy lifting. Add both first and last names down below plus the date, and this magnet becomes a cute little keepsake for your family and anyone else lucky enough to score a copy.
25. Fresh Snowfall
Something magical happens when snowflakes dance across the dark winter sky, and Fresh Snowfall turns that enchanting memory into a Christmas Card Magnet for the ages. From the hazy blue background to the smattering of snowflakes peeking out from the magnet’s corners to the pretty picture in the middle, everything about this design whispers there’s a wonderful winter ahead.
26. Merry Stocking
Merry Stocking borrows some charm from Christmas morning in the form of a red-and-white striped stocking overflowing with greenery and charm. Rustic birch detailing in the background and smart lettering choices only add to the nostalgia and beauty of this timeless greeting.
