A new year is a fresh start on the calendar, full of hope and potential—aka, the perfect time to connect with your loved ones. Whether you’re planning to celebrate in-person with your circle, or you’ll be far away from one another when the ball drops, the right New Year cards can help you let the people who matter most to you know that you’re thinking of them. While a simple “Happy New Year!” might get the job done, there are plenty of more creative ways to send your happy new year well-wishes, depending on who your recipient is.

3. So, what to write in a Happy New Year ecard? The best notes feel
thoughtful, whether you’re sending your letter digitally or through
the mail. Your New Year card messages will also likely vary,
depending on if you’re sending one to everyone on your holiday
card list, or you’re planning to customize an individual happy new
year message to a wide variety of people (you might, for example,
want to send a different kind of New Year card to your boss than
you’d send to your nephew, and a different message to your close
friends than you might send to your work clients).
