Holiday Cards

Can you believe the holidays are right around the corner?! Seems like the 4th of July was just yesterday! Anyway, it’s that time of year to start working on the Christmas cards. There are so many companies out there that offer photo cards and I love doing these. They are SO much easier than writing out card after card after card. Plus, they have such cute designs and I love seeing photos of my friends and their families and I’m sure they enjoy seeing photos of mine as well.

In case you haven’t started your holiday cards yet, and are looking for a good company to go with, I thought I’d tell you about Shutterfly and a couple of the products they have to offer. Here are a few of the cards I’m interested in and the reasons why I’m considering them:

I love this photo card because of the simplicity. A big photo of the kids, a little message, and that’s it. The focus is on the photo and I love that.

I also love this stationary card because of it’s uniqueness. We get so many photo cards in the mail and this one is different in a couple of ways. One, it’s not your typical green and red, but the colors are fun and vibrant. And two, it’s a stationary card instead of a photo card. The paper is cardstock and the photo has a matte finish instead of glossy.

I like this one because it gives plenty of room for you to write a little note AND have room for a few photos. Perfect!

In the past, we've not only used Shutterfly for Christmas cards, but wall calendars and photo mugs as well. We have always been very happy with them. Timely, affordable and great quality…what more could you ask for? As you begin working on your cards, keep Shutterfly in mind.
