Foreign Language Christmas Cards - Make Your Own

Foreign Language Christmas Cards - Make Your Own
We have friends in Germany.  Each year I like to send Christmas cards to them with the inscription written in German.  Hallmark card stores sell Christmas cards in a variety of languages.  These cards do not appear in the racks until about the end of November.  Unfortunately, several languages  sell out fast.  This year I needed seven cards in German, but our local store was sold out and time is getting short for sending them in time for a December 25 arrival.  I decided to make my own.
