ok, so I am FINALLY working on my holiday cards/announcement and I have some choices I figured I'd run by you all.

I am trying to decide proper order of the photos and also if I want red, blue, or black as the card background.

so, what do you think? BOOOOOO HIIISSSSS...Tiny Prints is not working for me.

so, ok, here are the four pics.

the first 3 would be lined up on the outside of the card from left to right

choice red

outside

choice blue

choice black

You're having the same issue I did - can't post from Tiny Prints.

If you figure it out, let me know how - I still want to post my card Chat Icon

I can only see black and blue, so based on this, I would go with blue. It would set off the black and white pictures well.

Beautiful pictures also, and you have one beautiful baby!Chat Icon Chat Icon

Love the pics - I would go with the red - it's festive Chat Icon

On a side note with the pics, I *personally* would put the one of the 3 of you in the middle Chat Icon

I would put the one of the 3 of you in the middle (love them all BTW!) and I would do red if the majority of your card receivers celebrate Christmas - but if they are a mix of denominations I would do blue. Black is pretty but IMO not for a holiday card.

The pic of the 3 of you is fantastic!

I can't see the red, so I voted for blue. However, red is very festive, so depending on the color red, that might have gotten my vote.

Beautiful!

I would put the one of the three of you in the middle.

As for color. I would match the color of the print on the inside and outside, but I am really anal like that.

I got the same one. I chose black, because I liked the contrast with the colored photos.

I like the black.

I would put the pic of you three in the middle.

And, is there any way you can make the pictures all black and white. The yellow on the one photo is throwing me off a bit.

Love all of the pictures! Beautiful family! Chat Icon

Love the red. Put you guys in the middle. Take out the words 'a bit' on the front. Makes me think you think only a little bit brighter. KWIM?

I LOVE LOVE THE RED!!!

The black is nice but you are wearing black and it is just to "black" for me (for the holidays) you need some contrast so the RED is best.....

I would also put the family pic in the middle!!!!Chat Icon Chat Icon beautiful!!

I actually like the black best too. I also agree the family picture should go in the middle but then I feel like the pics on either side should BOTH be B&W.

I think the blue looks best. Also, maybe try putting the family pic in the middle? I don't really think the order of the pics flow

Bitmaps will in paint and from there you should be able to save as a JPEG.

I did this, but with the red. I just think in the end it popped more and I couldn't change the color on any of the lettering so, red it is.

and BJ...I swapped out a "bit" for a LOT Chat Icon Chat Icon

thanks everyone!!!

I love the red.
Can I make one suggestion...
Is it possible to bring the 1st and 3rd pics down a bit. The top of the pics looks like heads are getting cut off (dh as an example in the last one). Otherwise love it...good job!

Chat Icon...I used the same card - love it!

I did blue, but for you based on your pics I'd definitely do the red.
