Holiday card shares

I thought I would share a few holiday cards.  🙂

First up is the card I created for my sister-in-law and her family for Christmas. They live in Africa now, so I create the cards and mail them.  It is a good way for them to keep in touch with their family, friends and supporters here.

It is a simple one.  It is 4×6 and I had it printed at Costco.  I then matted them on white.  I got envelopes that fit them on ebay – a great deal.  I usually add a bit of Stickles for added shine, but didn't do this year.

I used a digital kit from 2peas for it.  It is SUPER easy.  I promise. 🙂

We sure miss them.

Next, just a little peek at mine.  It was a 4×5 accordion fold card that opened to 16" wide, printed on pearl paper.  I tied a silk ribbon around it to hold it closed and matted it on dark brown cardstock.  The back was full of 1"x1" photos from throughout the year and updates on the family.  The inside was full of family photos that Cathy Blackstone took. Through these photos, it said, "Christmas is the day that love, joy and happiness came to this world," and the greeting said this…

Just showing a little peek since I like to keep this one card a year quiet. :) 

If you are interested in getting cards printed, I recommend whcc.com.  They are great!

Have a great day!
