Step 1
Skip paying for postage and cards this year. Send everyone who has a email account their Christmas card through free digital card websites. You may however need to send at least a letter to very close family members that do not have e-mail. Sites that I recommend that offers great step by step direction are AllFreeGreetingCards.com and AAAPostCards.com. Or draw your own digital greeting cards by going to drawgreetings.com. Use sites such as radiocards.net to interlink pictures and music to make a unique Christmas card.

Step 2
For family gifts think about creating a family tree website to share. Make it a family project to lessen the work. Websites such tribalpages.com and ancestry.com offers space for free for family trees.
-
Step 3
Create digital screen savers with pictures and family videos. Many sites such as www.blumentals.net offer free software to make your own screen savers.
-
Step 4
Create a digital ebook. Put together information that friends and family always ask you about and give it to them in a ebook for Christmas. Websites such asfreedownloadscenter.com offer free software to convert pdf. files to a ebook you can share. Think about cool craft projects you have done, things you have done around the house, or baking recipes.
