Tiny Prints: Holiday Card Campaign

I LOVE Christmas and everything about it. It’s about family coming together and celebrating the birth of Jesus. I love decorating my home, going out with my family every year to pick our Christmas Tree the day after Thanksgiving and the beginning of December, going with hot cocoa in hand to cut it down. Another huge thing for me to do is share our year of activities with our friends and family through Christmas Cards. I am a huge proponent and fan of sending cards. With the internet being as huge as it is, I still feel the time you take to prepare a card and send to someone has more meaning than sending a “happy holiday email” to someone.

I am no different as I LOVE to receive holiday cards from our friends and family, especially those who live far away. I love seeing pictures of their family and reading the notes inside the cards and sharing those with my family.

Our holiday cards are displayed on our pantry door in the kitchen for everyone to see. We celebrate Christmas Eve in our house having our family and friends over, and where we display the cards, they are enjoyed by everyone. Where do you display your cards??

Have you ever heard of Tiny Prints??? For 2 years now I have prepared and ordered our Christmas cards through Tiny Prints and have been extremely pleased to say the least with their product. This year is no different.

This is the card we ordered last year through Tiny Prints and not only did we love it, but so did everyone on our holiday list, both far and near.  I was able to show pictures of my family throughout the year on the card and have a note written on the inside of blessings passed on to all.  The ease of making the card, to finalizing it, then ordering was easy.  The software on the site walked you through the process with ease.  It made it that much better to create your memories to share with all.  The cards were received in prompt time too.

This year is no different with who we are ordering through, Tiny Prints all the way, though the card design will be a little different.  After looking through hundreds and I mean hundreds of designs, I have it narrowed down to one.  That one is the Tri-Fold Holiday Card.  I love it and will love my 3 childrens pictures making the card up for everyone to enjoy.  This is a front and back side card which will allow pictures on both sides.  I love uploading pictures of my family for all to share and especially love a more personable holiday card.  It is worth the .44 cents to send to everyone just one time a year.

Calling all Blogging Buddies:   If you have your own blog and are interested in checking out Tiny Prints for your holiday cards, and partake in this blogging campaign, visit Tiny Prints Holiday Card Campaign and fill out the form.

Disclosure:  Through my participation in the Tiny Prints Holiday Card Campaign, I will receive 50 cards of my choosing for free.  In no way receiving these cards did it entice me to write a favorable review.  I have received these cards before and the craftsmanship is amazing.  If I did not work with Tiny Prints on this campaign, I would definitely order through their site.

TIS THE SEASON 2010: HOLIDAY CARDS with SHUTTERFLY

Do you put much thought into holiday cards? Do you send the basic boxed cards or do you order picture cards through an online site??? Do you even send holiday cards???

I love not only sending, but receiving cards. My favorite holiday cards are Christmas. Christmas is such a huge holiday for our family that having cards made of our children to send to our friends and family, both far and near, is a must. This year I am ordering my cards through an online site called Shutterfly. I just joined this fantastic site and for signing up, I am receiving 50 FREE 4x6 prints. WOW, that will be a picture book for friends for Christmas (I will print the pictures for free and put in a beautiful album I already have - a wonderful and FREE gift!)

I love not only creating beautiful holiday cards, I also love receiving beautiful cards, whether they are picture cards or the basic holiday cards. That is an added addition to our Christmas decorating in our house. We have our kitchen pantry door which is always a festive site for all to see.

I have searched the Shutterfly site and not only are the cards beautiful, the ease of creating them is just that - simple. There is a wide range of cards at Shutterfly from Christmas-Holiday cards to Holiday-Story cards to Religious cards  to even Business Holiday cards.  There is something for everyone.  They even offer Christmas Gift Tags.  What a great addition that would be to someone specials gift.  There are so many different designs to choose from, though I am sure once I pick the pictures of my family the card will jump right out at me. Some of my favorite cards are follows:



This happens to be my favorite, because not only will it have my kids pictures on it (not my kids picured above), but it will have our family top 10 list of the top things that have happened to our family in 2010.  Pictures and a story - how awesome!



I love this picture card because it will reflect lots of different pictures to share with everyone and it is very festive.



Love, love, love this card - the picture size are big enough and I can write below about each picture.



The basic, holiday card - festive and beautiful.  One great family shot for all to appreciate.  Need I say more?

 The possibilities of creating a unique holiday card at Shutterfly are endless.  Check out their site today, become a new member, not only get your FREE 50 4x6 prints, but you can also order your cards today (one less thing you need to do before the holidays are really here).

Disclosure:  I received 50 holiday cards for posting this review.  In no way did receiving the cards help entice my opinion.  I love, love, love pictures of my family and to be able to share them with my family and friends during the holiday season, I am overjoyed.  A HUGE thanks to Shutterfly for offering this amazing promotion.
