Our Christmas Card

I love Christmas! It is absolutely my favorite holiday, and it reminds me each year to be thankful for my little family and how fortunate we are. Last year was my first year sending a Christmas card to our friends and family, and it is definitely a tradition I plan to continue!

Last year, I used Shutterfly for our holiday card. I really LOVE how they turned out.

Here is last year's card...
Shutterfly was very easy to navigate, and designing a card only took a few minutes! You can upload your own photos, and size them and place them on the card exactly how you want! Once they shipped, I got them in less than a week, and they came with envelopes too! Doesn't get any easier than that. The quality was amazing too!

I knew I wanted to use Shutterfly again this year, and was so excited when I read on Adrienne's blog that bloggers can get 50 free cards! I am having a hard time choosing which one I want! Here are my three favorite cards...



Send Holiday Cheer Christmas Card



Retro Kaleidoscope Holiday Card



Warm Wishes Christmas Card

Aren't they adorable??? I plan on using this picture of our little family for the card design I choose.

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and are having fun preparing for Christmas. Remember the reason for the season!
