Cleveland, OH (December 14, 2017) – Nothing is more universal these days than being busy, especially around the holidays. While Christmastime can feel like chaos, connecting with loved ones is what truly gives meaning to the season – so why not do it in a way that’s super-simple for you and extra-epic for them? Make family and friends feel special in an instant with American Greetings Christmas selection of celebrity video ecards featuring Steve Martin, Smokey Robinson or William Shatner!
When you believe that your Christmas message is best delivered by one of America’s funniest comedians, beloved actors and Grammy-award winning banjo players, you’ll want to call on Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers to do the job. The newest addition to American Greetings collection of digital greetings features the soon-to-be-perennial favorite song “The Strangest Christmas Yet” from Martin’s latest bluegrass album with the Steep Canyon Rangers called “The Long-Awaited Album.”
If Motown classics are your jam, nothing beats a personalized Christmas greeting with the legendary smooth sounds of Smokey Robinson’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame-inducted voice. Launched in October, Robinson’s collection of Hollywood SmashUps™ video ecards includes two beloved favorites – “Get Ready” and “My Girl” – and fans will love customizing the “Get Ready” option for Christmas by choosing their recipient’s name to be sung by Smokey himself.
For those who love a big dose of humor with their Christmas cheer, William Shatner will help you send a personalized Christmas shout-out. The award-winning actor, director, producer, writer, recording artist and horseman added “greeting card personality” to his long list of impressive professional accomplishments with last year’s release of his Hollywood SmashUps video ecard. Set to the classic song “Shout,” Shatner brings his incomparable and hilarious style of spoken-word singing – complete with backup singers and flashing lights – to this unforgettable way to connect with all your favorite people.
