Holiday Cards...With Photo or Without???


We both LOVE cards…all kinds of cards – beautiful ones, cute ones, unique ones and so it goes!!!   As you know, we also love photos!!   

And I love receiving cards during the holidays.  I look forward to my mail and I am one of those who is thrilled when someone sends me photos, whether they are part of the card or just tucked in the envelope.  I can’t get rid of a card with photos and I have a couple little albums that carry all the photos we’ve received over the years.  Each year it’s fun for me to get it out and see how the families have changed.

I must admit, I’ve been hit or miss throughout the years with sending photos.  Sometimes I just haven’t had my act together enough to pull it off.  Actually though, those years weren’t that much easier because I am so picky when I go to find cards that it takes a long time to find the perfect card to send.  For a few years, I followed the lead of a dear friend and sort of scrapbooked my card and printed it on cardstock.  That was a lot of work! 

But the past few years, I have LOVED my cards!  With the advent of digital photos and the ability to make beautiful custom-designed cards, I have had a ball.  Last year we designed a full catalog of custom cards and they are just waiting to be used.  We’ve also got the creative juices flowing to make just the perfect card to fit your family and your photo.  It's fun to make the card be reflective of the photo or photos.  Let's face it...the cold, hard truth!  Even though I have the best of intentions every year, sometimes my holiday card is the only time of year some people hear from me/us!!!  That means I really want it to be special.








These are just a few samples of what we can do.  Our cards are press printed on high quality paper and we have options for matte, gloss, linen, pebble and pearl.  They are printed front and back so a personalized message can be added to make it even more special.  We offer 5 x7 or 5x5 square.  They come with envelopes in packages of 25 and will truly be a piece of artwork you can send to those on your list.

Whether you want to use photos you had taken by us earlier in the year or you want to schedule a new photo session to update your galleries, you should consider doing it soon as we are already getting busy with the holidays in mind.  We are offering special mini-sessions to make the process even easier for you.  Check out our special below and get in touch with us at your earliest convenience.  You won’t be sorry you did and neither will your friends and family when they open your card!


Blessings to you and yours,


Karen and Tina
