I know, I know. You are thinking that the weather is just now starting to change and the time hasn’t even changed yet..it’s fall time.. christmas is so far away..I have plenty of time to get my cards and such together.
Wrong! There aren’t that many days left till christmas.. Just shy of 2 months actualy! It’s time to be getting those babies together. I know I have already saw the christmas displays in the dollar tree, walmart and target..mixed right in with the halloween which is a little creepy in my opinion..but maybe that’s just me!
For the past few years I have been lucky enough to get to use Shutterfly for my christmas cards and I have been able to make them into more personalized cards by making them Photo Christmas Cards. I can remember back in the day when I would try to make them on my own and they looked so tacky and meh
. Plus, I never had enough colored ink or a decent enough printer to make more than a few. Also, this makes it SO SIMPLE ..You find a design, a picture if you are making a photo one and BAM.. you’re on your way! They show up at your door
Of course, if you are so inclined you can make yours without a photo or even make it a holiday card if that’s your cup of tea. ..There are a ton of options..Most of the time I just have to sit down and take my time and pick out what I like with David/ My mom (My mom just happens to have a good eye for picking things out!)
This is the card that we did last year: We didn’t take a specific picture for it like we did the year before. I just found a random picture that was from the year.
This year though I am hopeful this year we take one specifically for whichever card we end up picking out!Which means I Have to get my hair all fixed and find some sort of outfit and get david to shave and cut his hair! Always fun!
