The French have a great system for sending their season's greetings:
they send around their voeux, best wishes for the new year, in January. Here in France, we have until January 31st to send a card to friends, family and business associates. 
Christmas cards are relatively unheard of. Given a choice, I'd rather get my season's greetings in dull January when it counts rather than during the hustle & bustle of December. And I'd way rather take on the project of sending them then, as well. 
J'adore these old cards. I love the images and I love reading the messages on the back. Most of the New Year's cards I find are from WWI and before. The notes express undying love between cousins, grandchildren to their grandparents, and between friends. It's all very innocent and heart felt. 
Sending you my meilleurs voeux, best wishes, for year of bonheur (happiness) and santé!
