Museums & Galleries - Charity Christmas Cards (XETC221) - Pack of 20, Deep Midwinter model

Alongside this pack, I wanted to buy the owl cards that come on their own in a 5 pack.It is difficult that there isn't a photo of all designs on this listing but luckily I searched for pictures of the rest of the cards online and found that the owl cards are also included in it! Phew, I'm glad I didn't end up with duplicates. I've included pics of all the cards with my hand for scale.Packaging: They are presented in a thick satin-finish ivory card box which reads 'Wishing you a Merry Christmas' inside as you open the top flap.The cards are nestled in the box with the central part of the first design showing.Cards: They are a little smaller than stated in the description, measuring about 12.3mm by 12.4mm squared, with white envelopes 13mm by 12.9mm. They are excellent thick card (as you'd expect from an expensive card sold singly, not a multipack). The card is also lightly textured which feels very premium. The image is printed with a 'satin' paint finish (it looks quite matte but very slightly reflects light). There is an overlap where the top fold of the card doesn't quite line up with the underside of the card - this overlaps by about 1.5mm.Inside the card reads: 'Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year' on the right-hand side. All the charities the cards support are listed with their logos and registered charity numbers on the left-hand side - NSPCC, British Heart For, Mind, Marie Curie and Shelter.Delivery: I ordered the cards on the 21st December and they arrived the next day with Amazon Prime.Many cards were unavailable for delivery before Christmas so I was delighted by this availability and prompt postage.I'm very impressed by the quality of these. When compared to for example, Medici Cards which are very thin and flexible these are a league above in thickness and finish. The designs are unusual and magical for animal and nature lovers.

I ordered these cards before the NSPCC criticized the High Court's recent decision which found that children's rights are not being respected by the Tavistock Clinic. The NSPCC may think they know better than a survivor of Tavistock's handiwork (Keira Bell) and the High Court of England and Wales, but I disagree with them. If you are also against children being mutilated, please do not buy these cards or any others by Museums & Galleries.

Very satisfied with my purchase, a pity there are no images of the other three designs of cards. was dubious about ordering because of this but very much in keeping and would therefore recommend.

Lovely detail on the cards-all different pictures and excellent quality card also in a lovely box to store them in and also good that they support a handful of different charities

Must admit I do tend to buy Charity Cards to send this time of year,(if it helps a good cause, why not?)The box contains 20 festive-scene cards (4 different pictures)The card has a simple Christmas wish inside with space to write a shortmessage of your own.Guess I would describe the cards as pretty basic, the bonus being thecharity angle.

So over priced. Small and very cheap. I would pay 4.99 for these at most. Charity cards with 10 percent of cost going to several charities. Overpriced, truly expensive low grade cards

A little disappointed... the pictures are good, card thickness is also acceptable. But the quality leaves a bit to be desired... the fold is not exact so the front side overlaps on the back. There is too much writing on the inside left side using up half the space... all that could’ve been printed on the back of the card, leaving space for personal messages. Tbh, I wouldn’t buy these again.

I was a little disappointed in these cards. I have bought M&G cards before and always been pleased, but these are just a little dull in tone and finish. Beautiful images, the vibrancy of which is sadly lost in a rather grey, matt print quality. But they're only cards and you get a good amount for the price.
