Do you send out holiday cards?

DH's parents used to order custom ones with a picture of DH and his brothers.

I'm considering the idea of us sending out cards this year... maybe with a wedding pic on them...

No pics for us.

The only way I would send a pic is if we had kids and then it would be kids only...

We send cards every year. Usually we put a picture of the dog on them Chat Icon Order them from Shutterfly. I wouldn't send a pic of us on them though.

Re: Do you send out holiday cards?

standard cards. no offense to anyone--but unless you are taking pics of little kids and stuff to send for friends & family--i never understood putting pics on cards.

I make my own and until we have a pet or child, I stay away from the picture ones unless I have a REALLY cute idea.

Before DC we would get custom printed cards so that we wouldn't have to write anything on each card... Chat Icon Now with DC, we have photo cards with just the kids. Chat Icon

Re: Do you send out holiday cards?

For a few years I sent handmade cards, the past two years I ordered picture cards from shutterfly with a collage of pictures of us, our kids & the chickens, dog & bunny.
Two years ago I made Christmas dresses for the chickens, dressed them up, took pics & used them on our cards.
I'm whacked & everyone on my card listed knows itChat Icon

I used to send a mix of store bought and hand made cards but I haven't for the past 2 years. I am thinking of making cards to send out this year.

Re: Do you send out holiday cards?

I use standard cards and handwrite them. Since we now have Brody (our dog/child!) last year I enclosed a photo of him to parents and close friends, and his vet, and used the same photo on personalized postage stamps.:

Re: Do you send out holiday cards?

For the past couple of years since we got married, we sent out the packaged ones and I signed them. Now we will more than likely do photo cards with Abby's picture.

I pick up the hand made Burgoyne holiday cards from Costco. They are so cute and beautiful I love them and love sending them out.
