Can I scan a professional pic and use it as a holiday card?

Will this look good or cheesey like a scanned pic. I want to send out pics of Roman and Clover with Santa as our holiday card but obviously don't want to spend a fortune buying them from the mall photographers.

I've done it before Chat Icon If you have a good resolution scanner and printer, it will look fine!

Nothing wrong with taking your own picture while they're on his lap!

Yes you can scan it but make sure you scan a larger size photo ( 5x7, etc)

I tried it last year, and the color in her face just didn't look right -- it was too "orangey". I tried it on several different printers, but maybe they were all cr@ppy.

I do it every year. The scanner I used last year wasn't great so I went to Kinko's & scanned onto a disk. And then order them on-line. They came out perfect.
