Yet another Christmas card question! Etd. shadow pic #4

Please help me choose!!

I made a bunch of different holiday cards and I don't know which one I like best. To make matters worse, I keep making changes on all of them so I like them all for different reasons... I'm currently changing the pictures on the second card to more smiley shots. Maybe it would have helped if I used the same picture in all of them but I have too many pictures to choose from and if it's not clear yet, I'm not a very decisive person. Which do you like best? TIA!

ETA: I edited the shadow out of #4... I also tried Barb's suggestion with putting our last name in block print and first names in script but it didn't make it any more legible, at least with the fonts and colors that I'm using... I love that look of script over block print but I rarely do it because I have a hard time getting it right...

Re: Yet another Christmas card question!

I like #2

BTW where did you get those done? I went to Sears and they didn't have the collage option and there were 3 photos I really wanted on the card so we ended up with just the one photo.

I like the layout of 1 best but maybe use the picture from 4 instead?

Don't be sorry! I welcome any and all advice from a pro Chat Icon (and from non-pros too but you all know what I mean!). I don't know how to get rid of the shadow. Chat Icon

These were taken in my bedroom by my girlfriend and by the time she took this shot the light had changed. She complained about that shadow when she took the picture. You photographer types are all alike. Chat Icon

LMAO - just waiting for Barb, Summer and Sandra to pick up on it now Chat Icon

In your program can you either patch or paint over it?

If you need help let me know - I can take a stab at it.

I like #3 or #4 as it's different from the others I've been seeing.

If it's #4, I would put the last name in a block font in caps and the first names in the script font. It gets lost in the words the way it is now.

Also just an FYI for shadows in the future, she's too close to the wall. Move her further away & there won't be a shadow.

Great job! Very hard choice to make between all of them.

Mine looked at the fur as if she was seriously considering it but decided to eat her shoes instead, which is why she's barefoot in the pics. Chat Icon
