The U.S. Greeting Card Association (GCA) is predicting that shoppers will purchase some 1.6 billion Christmas cards this year, making Christmas the largest card-sending holiday in the country. That figure includes boxed cards, but does not include photo and other personalized cards sold online.

The company’s 2013 holiday designs include cards featuring embellishments such as removable ornaments; designs with simple photography; laser-cut holiday cards; and cards incorporating rich colors and short, powerful sentiments.

The following was posted on P. Graham Dunn’s Facebook page Nov. 18:

“At 9:15 Sunday morning, November 17, 2013, our Anna went to be with Jesus. Her husband, Joe, her parents and three siblings were at her side, surrounded by a group of friends. God is collecting many tears right now, and we are feeling deeply the ‘sting of death.’ However, deep within us, we know that Jesus is the Victor, and that because Anna knew Him, we will see her again; we are secure in the goodness and mercy of our Heavenly Father. Thank you for your love, prayers, and words of encouragement. They have sustained us through this five year journey of cancer, and will continue to sustain us in our loss.”
