I love picking out holiday cards every year! It means that Christmas is around the corner and it's just one more tradition that I look forward to. Our first Christmas as a married couple was a very special one! We got married 11-22-08 so we didn't have a whole lot of extra time to get our cards made. We used a wedding picture and had them made by Shutterfly. We had our cards by Dec 13th and they were sent out with time to spare...not bad for us newlyweds! Our card from 2008 is below!
The following year I was a little ambitious and decided to make our cards from scratch. Two words...never again! It was the kind of project that sounded fun and ended up taking way longer than I expected. Each card was hand stamped/glued/cut...yea, not sure what I was thinking. Though I was really happy with the end result...I knew that Shutterfly and I would be in business the next year!!
That year has come...and it's time for our 2010 card. This year, our family picture will look somewhat different as we are expecting a precious baby boy in February. Don't worry Bailey...we would never leave you out! We are having our pictures taken on Sunday and will be ordering our cards soon!
A few of my favorite Shutterfly products are their:
