Make Your Christmas Cards Musical! How to Create a Personalised Christmas Card with your own Custom Song 🎄🎵
Why send an ordinary Christmas card when you can add a song made just for them?
Christmas cards are a lovely tradition to connect with family and friends; choosing our favourite designs, writing a festive message and sending them to loved ones.
But what if your Christmas card could do something a little more magical?
Imagine someone opening your card, scanning a little QR code with their phone and suddenly hearing a Christmas song written especially for them – complete with their name, personal memories and your very own festive wishes.
With Create a Song, you can do exactly that!
Whether you're looking for a romantic Christmas surprise, a funny song for the family or a special musical greeting for someone far away, creating a personalised musical Christmas
card is easier than you might think.
How do our Musical Christmas Cards Work?
Our musical Christmas cards are a greeting card that lets someone listen to music when they receive it.
Do you remember the traditional musical cards that played a familiar Christmas tune when opened? Our Musical Cards are the modern equivalent and take the idea a step further with better quality.
Instead of hearing the same old Christmas tune, your recipient hears a completely personalised Christmas song created just for them.
Their name might feature in the chorus. The lyrics might mention your family Christmas traditions, a memorable holiday, a shared joke or simply how much they mean to you.
And unlike traditional electronic musical cards, there's no battery or speaker hidden inside the card. The magic happens by scanning a QR code on the card, which links to their very own song. All they need to do is scan it with their smartphone to listen!
Listen to an example here:
How to Make Your Own Musical Christmas Card with your Own Song
It's surprisingly simple, and you don't need any musical talent or technical expertise.
Step 1: Create Your Personalised Christmas Song
Visit our Personalised Christmas Song Creator.
Enter a few details about the person you're creating the song for.
You could include:
Their name or nickname
Your favourite Christmas memories together
Family traditions or funny festive stories
Things that make them special
A heartfelt Christmas message
Choose the musical style you'd prefer – we've added a "Christmas" music style especially, but you can choose any of our many styles that are cheerful and festive, warm and romantic, or fun and playful.
Our song generator will help turn your ideas into lyrics, which you can review and edit before generating the music.
Step 2: Preview Your Christmas Song for Free
Once you're happy with the lyrics, create your song and listen to your free preview. You have 3 free previews to make a song you like.
Imagine hearing your loved one's name sung in a catchy Christmas chorus!
If you love the result, you can purchase your favourite song in our "Share Pack" for ÂŁ2.99 which includes an MP3 download, your lyrics, a weblink, and a QR code linking to your song.
Step 3: Add the QR Code to Your Christmas Card
Now comes the clever bit! If you'd like to make your own card, simply print the QR code from your Share Pack, cut it out and stick it inside any Christmas card. You could write something like:
"This Christmas, I've made you something a little different. Scan this code for a special surprise – it's a song just for you! 🎵❤️"
When your recipient opens their card, they can scan the QR code and listen to their personalised Christmas song.
That's it – you've turned an ordinary card into a musical Christmas surprise!
Or Let Us Send Your Musical Christmas Card for You!
Don't fancy making your own card? No problem.

It's a lovely surprise for friends, family or anyone who deserves something more personal than an ordinary Christmas card.
đź’Ś Musical Christmas Telegrams (From ÂŁ8.99 incl. postage)
Looking for something a little more unusual?

Christmas song written especially for them.
It's nostalgic, thoughtful and wonderfully unexpected.
Five Personalised Christmas Song Ideas They'll Love
Not sure what to write your Christmas song about? Here are a few ideas to get you started.
1. A Magical Christmas Song for Children
Create a fun festive song featuring your child's name, their excitement about Santa, their favourite toys or the family Christmas traditions they love.
Imagine their delight at hearing a song that seems to know all about them!
2. A Romantic Christmas Song for Your Partner
Tell your partner how much they mean to you with a personalised Christmas love song.
Include the story of how you met, special memories you've made together, or why spending Christmas with them makes the season extra special.
A musical Christmas card can be a wonderfully romantic surprise without spending a fortune.
3. A Christmas Song for Grandparents
Grandparents often treasure personal gestures more than expensive presents.
Why not create a song about family Christmases, grandchildren, happy memories and the love that brings everyone together?
It's a thoughtful way to make them feel included and appreciated.
4. A Funny Christmas Song for Friends
Not every Christmas song needs to be sentimental!
Create a hilarious festive song about your friend's Christmas habits, terrible dancing, questionable cooking skills or love of mince pies.
A little gentle humour can make a musical Christmas card especially memorable.
5. A Christmas Greeting for Someone Far Away
Christmas can be particularly meaningful when family and friends live in different towns, countries or even continents.
A personalised song can help bridge that distance.
Include familiar names, shared memories and a message about looking forward to being together again.
You can send the song digitally, so they can hear your Christmas wishes wherever they are.
A Unique Christmas Gift That Doesn't Cost a Fortune
Finding thoughtful Christmas gifts isn't always easy, particularly when you're buying for lots of people. A personalised Christmas song offers something a little different.
It's affordable, personal and doesn't need wrapping paper, batteries or a trip to the shops.
Better still, it's not just a generic Christmas song. It's about the person receiving it.
For just ÂŁ2.49, you can create a musical greeting to print inside your own Christmas card or share digitally.
Or choose one of our posted Musical Postcards or Telegrams for an extra-special surprise.
