After hours of trying to decide on a design, picture and website to use to make our Christmas I had decided against it. I was spending way too much time on it and didn't know if it was necessary. I love receiving cards from friends every year and seeing their adorable families, but Brett didn't really see the point of sending just us and I had decided the same.
That is, until I was catching up on my daily blogs today and learned that Shutterfly will give away 50 Christmas cards to bloggers if they blog about it. So, here I am blogging about it!
May as well do it since it is free, right?
I think this is the photo we will use:
This being our first year of marriage, of course I have to use a wedding photo! Maybe Sam will make the card next year. Poor thing.
Here are some other links to Shutterfly. I have used it to make note cards and shower invites in the past. It is an easy website to use, the quality is great and it ships quickly.
Stopping by from Mingle Monday! Your blog is adorable...Congrats on being a newlywed! I'm doing the shutterfly xmas card thing too...your photo is perfect. Now following your blog!

Love it!! Such a good picture!! I want to do holiday cards too, but our wedding pictures don't have our puppy in it, so I am hoping to get some pictures taken for holiday cards (I justify this with the fact that I didn't get engagement pictures taken).
ReplyDeletesuch a beautiful picture! You guys are a gorgeous family! I'm sure your cards are going to turn out awesome!
ReplyDeleteStopping by from Mingle Monday...I love it! I saw that shutterfly deal, too and I think it's such a great deal, I'm going to take them up on that offer as well. That's the perfect picture to use. Congrats on your first married Christmas! That will be me next year!
ReplyDeleteJust a fellow Texan saying hi from Mingle Monday! I just love that picture, I'm a fellow dog lover and would love to get my dog involved in my wedding.
ReplyDeleteCUTE! Here saying 'hi' from mingle monday! I did the shutterfly thing too, loved it :)
ReplyDeleteMingling too from Megs site. Love the photo. Don't think anyone would want to see a photo of me and Hubby though. :)
ReplyDeleteLove that picture! We used a wedding picture last year too. But this year I have no idea what picture we're going to use. So hard!

Hi from Mingle Monday! Your picture is too cute!!
ReplyDeletei love that picture, it will make a great card! thanks for sharing that link, i'll have to do that too
ReplyDeleteI love the picture you picked...can't help but think of poor Sam. I'm sure he was left outside in the rain while that pic was being taken anyway. I would do the same except that Ryan has long ago banned sending out cards with our pic and/or our dogs' pic. So be looking out for my generic christmas card once again this year.
ReplyDeleteOhhh I love the pic you chose :)
ReplyDeletei loooove getting picture cards. they stay on my fridge for months!
