Sir Henry Cole, Director of London's Victoria and Albert Museum, found that writing numerous Christmas greetings to friends and colleagues was becoming a time-consuming task. He asked his artist friend, John Calcott Horsley, to design a card which could be used by Cole and also sold to the public. The first Christmas cards were created in England on 9 December 1843. Horsley produced 1,000 lithographed and hand-coloured cards. More like postcards, they sold for a shilling, which was the equivalent of a day's wages for a labourer. It was another twenty years before Christmas cards became commercially viable for the common man, following the invention of cheaper colour lithography. (source: today.wmit.net - 9 December)

Christmas cards are greeting cards and Christmas decorations refer to wreaths, holiday lights, Christmas trees, stockings, candles, etc. While many people will use Christmas cards that they receive to display on or "decorate" their fireplace mantel or Christmas tree, Christmas cards are generally not considered decorations. Perhaps, the only thing Christmas cards and Christmas decorations have in common is they both are related to Christmas and may have the same design themes such as Christmassy colors (green, red, and white) and motifs (Christmas tree, reindeer, Santa, snow, etc.).

In terms of card type, Christmas cards are generally printed on photo card stock or paper card stock. Cards on photo card stock are typically called "Christmas photo cards" or "holiday photo cards" and are digitally printed onto photographic paper just like a photograph. These Christmas photo cards are available as flat cards or foldover cards. Cards on paper card stock are called simply "Christmas cards" and are printed on thick paper stock. Christmas cards that have photos (usually a family photo) printed onto them are called "photo Christmas cards" or "photo holiday cards". Originally, Christmas cards were available only as foldover cards or greeting cards. Now, Christmas cards are available as flat cards as well as a multitude of folded cards.
