In the past, I've also used Shutterfly photo cards to create a custom holiday invitation:
I've created custom birthday cards as a great way to share our family portraits:
Possibly my favorite card project so far has been this card featuring the boys' artwork. We've been using it as a thank you note:
I've been a bit at a loss this year as to what to do for our annual Christmas card. Since we've been married, James and I have always done a Christmas letter with several snapshots from throughout the year. I think family and friends have come to expect this from us, but it's definitely a time consuming process: selecting, editing, and cropping the pictures; composing the narration; and then trying to get it all together in Word without the whole file blowing up.
I think I've found my solution this year! I received an email about the new picture cards now available at Shutterfly. There are several that allow you to put numerous pictures on the card in addition to a fair amount of text. Check these out:
The Most Wonderful Time of the Year card:
The Many Memories card is also in the running:
I think this Tree of Hope card is my current favorite. Eight pictures, room for lots of text, plus it's for a good cause:
Problem solved, as far as I'm concerned! Based on my past experiences with Shutterfly, I know I'll get a professional quality product, and the card will still feature our annual letter with some pictures!
Now, I just have to decide on which card and, possibly more challenging, get all four of us plus the dog together for a good holiday picture.
