Need help finding a Christmas/Hanukkah card

November 22, 2009 12:00 PM

Please help find a particular Christmas/Hanukkah card that my wife and I love!

A number of years ago -- at least seven, but I'm not really sure -- I got my wife a holiday card that she just absolutely loved. See, I'm Jewish by heritage (though I'm not at all religious) and she's Catholic by heritage (though is Unitarian now). So every December we have both Hanukkah and Christmas.

This card, then, showed Santa Claus kneeling down and playing dreidel on the floor with a few kids. On the inside of the card it said something like "Even though we celebrate different things this time of year, we can still play well together." It may have been by American Greetings, but we're not certain of that.

My usually powerful Google-fu has failed to uncover anything about this card. Obviously, we'd like to know how to get our hands on a few copies.

There is another Christmas/Hanukkah interfaith card that was more of the type you write a note in and send to a bunch of folks, that showed a reindeer where its antlers made the shape of a Hanukkah menorah, complete with little candles in each. If you can help find that one, too, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!

I've received that card, more than once :-) I would be surprised if you couldn't find some variation on that card at Hallmark's website.

The reindeer menorah is here at Chrismukkah and several others that should appeal to you -- not the Santa playing with dreidel, but there is a nice Orthodox Santa...

I saw this card last week at the drugstore. It's by Hallmark.

Here are some places to look:

Maybe the keyword for google is "interfaith" along with the other details of what you are looking for.
