Christmas Card Message - Text starts a folded 5 × 7 greeting with seasonal stationery, so you can focus on the words. This guide uses the holly-bordered front and shows how to replace its greeting and add a personal signature.
1.Create a folded Christmas card
Start a folded card from the opening screen. The app opens a 5 × 7 card with the Front selected, a sample greeting, and seasonal holly stationery.

Christmas Card Message - Text on Mac with a new holly-bordered folded card, the Front selected, and the sample greeting A Season of Good Things. 2.Write the greeting on the front
Choose Write in the toolbar. In Message Atelier, replace the sample text in Greeting with your own greeting, such as “Merry Christmas”. The front preview updates with your words.

The folded card front now displays Merry Christmas in the centered greeting, and the Message Atelier Greeting field contains Merry Christmas. 3.Add a personal signature
Enter a closing in Signature, such as “With love, the Martins”. Check the Front preview to see the greeting and signature together on the finished card.

The holly-bordered folded Christmas card front reads Merry Christmas above With love, the Martins; the signature is visible in Message Atelier.
Tips
Adjust Type size or Alignment in Message Atelier if you want to refine the front text.
Use Paper to explore the available stationery designs before finishing the card.
Watch outCheck the full front preview before printing so a long greeting or signature does not overflow the design.
Watch outThe guide shows the card front only; check the inside and back separately before printing a folded sheet.
