Help Me With My Christmas Cards!

Well now that our bellies are full of turkey (or ham in my case), our thanks have been given and Black Friday is in full swing...it is now appropriate to talk about Christmas!  Woo hoo!

C and have already put up our tree and decorations. You guys, he let me buy these awesome black, brown and leopard print ornaments this year. Leopard print!  It looks awesome, I will post a pic soon!

Last year was our first Christmas together and we started a tradition.  Each year we are going to shop for a new ornament that represents the year (which we will mark somewhere on the ornament) and put it on our tree.  Someday we will have a tree full of ornaments that are special to us which I really love.

This year, we also decided to do Christmas cards together! We haven’t quite decided which look to go for….so that is where you guys come in!  I would really love your help and suggestions.

When starting my hunt for cards I went straight to Tiny Prints.  They are part of the Shutterfly family of brands and their stuff is just great. It was hard to even narrow it down to just a few for you all to help me with, I love them all that much!

So I was wondering….can you help me?

First off, I think this design is so beautiful.  I love the foil stamped gold “snow.” I probably love it even more since that’s not something we ever see in Arizona!

I think this one is great too! C and I could include lots of pictures of our adventures on this card.  I love the bright colors too.  My favorite is the brown color, it’s different for this time of year but I think it still works.

Third, the way this card folds out is great! My favorite part of this card is the message, “Joy and Blessings.” We could include several photos of our adventures on this one too!

This card is really neat….it is clear!  I just love how unique that is. I can’t even decide which color style is my favorite!

The message on this card is really great. It says "Blessed is the season." It has such a Christmas feel to it too, which I love. I can't decide if I like the classic black font color or the bright yellow!

 Next, I am really intrigued by the shape of this one.  I have never seen circle cards before.  I think it looks so elegant.  The black and gold are so pretty together. These can be used as ornaments too, which I think it so fun!

 Finally, I think it would be really fun to do this one and use a silly “ugly sweater” picture with the two of us and our pets (a cat and a fish).  I think it would make people giggle!
Here
 I wish I could order one of each of their cards….there are just so many that I love! You can find them all here!

What do you guys think? Which are your favorites? Which should C and I use this year?

  2. I love your ornament idea! My grandma gave me one for every year of my life until I was in college, so now I have a nice collection that reminds me of her.

    As for your cards, I like the first one and the 2nd to last one the most. Good luck with your decision. :)

  3. I definitely vote for the ugly sweater theme. It would be so cute! My mother actually makes all of her Christmas cards by hand so I love seeing unique cards. The circle one is pretty cool!

  6. I like the fourth one. The stripes make it seem elegant, but fun!

    This will be my second Christmas with my boy and I'm excited because I actually get to see him! I do the ornament thing on my own, but maybe I can do it with him when things settle back out!

  7. The first one is my favorite - I'm a sucker for gold foil! But I also love the ornament one. My brother-in-law's family sent that one last year and we loved it!
