Colorful birds decorate a tropical-style Christmas tree with starfruit, mangos, hibiscus and other flowers. Strings of plumeria, like Hawaiian leis, are draped across the palm leaves that make up the tree. Hidden among the branches are pigeons--one wearing a Santa hat. This Hawaiian Christmas card wishes a "Mele Kalikimaka from our ohana to yours." Ohana is Hawaiian for "family" which is of great importance to the island people. A simple background of water and sand completes this Christmas card from your family / ohana. The inside verse wishes the recipient "Onipa'a Na La Ho'omaika'i" which means "Merry Christmas Days" (as in the entire Christmas season) and a Happy New Year (a Hau'oli Makahikia.) This card with its special Hawaiian greeting will be meaningful to your Hawaiian friends and family alike. You may also change the inside text to whatever you wish.
