Christmas is my favorite holiday. The first thing I do to prepare for festivities is make a plan for card. Then I look forward to addressing them because it’s typically the first time I listen to Christmas music. (I say typically because there was one year I wanted a “snow” picture – I live in CA – and we had to wait til we went to MI to get that picture… and it happened to be December 23. Yes, those cards weren’t in mailboxes by Christmas!)
So this year I gathered my pinterest inspired photo ideas and had a friend snap our picture. I found this free printable pennant banner and edited it in Picasa to make our MERRY CHRISTMAS sign that we held. Many props to my family who humored me with our puffy vests, scarves, and mittens since it was 78 degrees when we took our picture.
Minted.com has been a wonderful site to work with. They have so many amazing card designs that I couldn’t choose just one. Their postcards are new this year and the frugal part of me likes the idea of the lower costs for stamps! I got 3 different designs to sample, and I was happy with all of them. The quality is excellent! Their holiday cards are outrageously cute. Good luck choosing just one favorite.
