These cards are ok. They are a little smaller than most Christmas cards. They have a matte finish, not shiny. I thought they looked shiny in the picture. They will do, though. Giving money to employees...they will probably not pay much attention to the card!The cards in the picture appear to be made with gold foil fronts, however, the cards are made of thin card stock paper and they are not regular size; they are smaller.Not what I expected. Pictures show them to be shimmery or almost look like a foil. They are actually very bland with a matte finish.How practical and beautifulElles sont très jolies mais je n’avais pas fait attention que les phrases étaient écrites en anglais donc un peu déçue. Mais on fait l’affaire !
