So it's that time of year when we have to knock out Christmas cards for clients, and of course the bosses want something designed in-house.
I really, really don't want to use anything that looks even remotely like a typical font for this task. No pseudo-handwritten or calligraphic shit.
What are you boys and girls using? Any nice sans that are fit for purpose?

Does your company have a choice of brand font? If so, why use anything else?
I've got to do one too over the next few days and I'm not going with anything off-brand except colour and christmas schmaltz.
