oh, now cards.

Now that I've been pondering my handmade Christmas gifts... I've been doing some more pondering about my Christmas cards. I wish I new how to use Photoshop so I could design something unique and "me", but I don't... so I could opt for the handmade route like I did last year, or I could let someone else design my cards! There are so many companies out there that design cute cards, once again- so many talented people! Skip To My Lou is having a card giveaway, maybe I could win my Christmas cards along with some Christmas gifts. (Now, maybe I'm just being too hopeful, but it doesn't hurt!)

Do you send out Christmas cards? A letter? A picture? All of the above?! I want to know the details of your Christmas card secrets...

We usually send a card with a family picture enclosed. But, we haven't done pictures yet this year, and it's getting kind of late. I love the newsletters I've received from other families, telling what they've been up to. One family in particular always sends theirs in the form of a cute poem that the matriarch has composed. I always get a kick out of her creativity.

Hey! I came across your blog today on Kelli's. How are you? I thought I would pass along my cousin's website www.webtations.com I haven't really looked into it but it's suppose to be cool where you can design your own cards and print them on your own. You'll have to check it out and see if it's any good. (then let me know, so I can do it too!) Hope all is well!

heh, yeah, we don't send cards. We're slackers. Also, we don't have kids, and, I don't think our family really cares unless they get updates about kids. Although, last year--don't laugh--we had a "family portrait" taken for the holidays with our pups. And yes, Santa Hats were involved. We gave it to our parents, because, after all, our pups ARE their grandchildren. hee hee.

So nice to meet you over at my blog; I love yours!! I generally do mine in Photoshop, but this year I'm thinking a premade template would be so much easier! Looking forward to getting to know you better.
