Opinions please-- Christmas card

A VERY nice & talented lady on here Chat Icon helped me and re-created a tinyprints.com card that I LOVED but my pictures didn't fit in their format. Not sure if I'm supposed to say her name so I won't for now.

Thoughts? They're fake names, all of them Chat Icon

You know there have been a few posts asking for opinions of my pictures, I had too many to chose from. I could always use one of these also if you think one of these would be better than the ones above:

Thoughts? Opinions?

But... I'm not loving the first pic, the hair in her eyes? All 3 of your "other" pics are FANTASTIC, I'd probably swap in one of those???

Even though I think it looks great the way it is I would probably use the last picture you posted instead of the 1st one on the card. You can't go wrong with any of them though...she's gorgeous!!

So cute! I love the card but I also just wish the hair was not in her face. I would keep the full length pic already in the card but move it to left and use the close up pic you posted (2nd pic) on the right. She's adorable!!!!

Re: Opinions please-- Christmas card

So funny that that's what you all said!

There's just something about that picture that I love. It's so "her"...her personality shines through in that picture to me. But obviously others won't get that from the card, so I guess I probably should swap out that first picture-- you're all right!

Now which should I swap it with? The last one, the close-up?

thank you all!

I dont know DD so if you think that that first pic really shows off her personality...then I would totally keep it. Esp because your close friends and family will probably see the same.
If you do sway pics though..yes, id go with the close up - #3Chat Icon

I would swap it with #2, the close up where you can see the puppy Chat Icon

This kid should be a model, I swear. She is just absolutely gorgeous Chat Icon

The middle pic of her holding the dog either the whole pic or crop the dog out if you want a close up. The pic with the hair is definitely adorable but for the card I think the other one would be better.

The Christmas card is so adorable. I love the ribbon detail with your names. The pictures are great. Honestly, you could put any of the ones you posted in the card... they are all so cute!

I like it the way it is-it looks very whimsical. If you changed the picture, I would go with the other close-up, the one with the dog.

Re: Opinions please-- Christmas card

Can you make two more versions please - swapping out the first pic with the second and then with the third.

I think I like the third best - but would love to see how it compares with the second.

Oh - and another thought - maybe you should put the full body shot as the first pic - and the close up as the second. I think it's throwing me off that it's the other way around.

Beautiful card!!!

All the pictures are gorgeous but without knowing your daughter...I am drawn to picture #2 as the close up as well. But I do love the card.

You've got time...once you decide what you'd like to see...you should have some samples with the ideas Chat Icon

OK hmm ... I LOVE the pictures ... but something feels "off" to me. Something about the balance between the close up and the far away pic feels disconnected. Have you considered doing 3 pictures? I feel that might be more "harmonious" (whatever that means! Chat Icon). I loooove the 2nd pic you posted (the close up) so maybe coordinate that one somehow? Also, I bet some really good photoshopper could fix the hair in DD's face (or at least, give it a try and see how it looks).
