Holiday Cards - November 18th

I absolutely love picking out my Christmas card each year! Last year, I designed my own card and had two versions b/c I couldn't decide on just one! This year, I wanted to design my own card again but I am having technical difficulties with my photo editing software (photoshop elements). So I needed to find an alternative. Well, what could be better than 50 free cards from Shutterfly? Shutterfly is running a promotion for bloggers to receive 50 free Holiday cards just by writing up a post on the Holiday 2010 Collection! I am loving some of these cards and have already looked through all 805 options...but I haven't decided on a design yet! I also have to think about which photo I want to use, what direction it goes, and how it will look with my choice. I guess you will just have to wait to get my card to see what design I choose!

I am really liking designs like these with a "ribbon" type thing over the photo.



But I am also loving designs like these with a fun, festive feel!



And last, I think these are pretty cool with a snowflake or star type overlay.

So, I think you are thinking that simply by adding snowflakes to a shot of you in a swimsuit, it becomes an acceptable Christmas card? I am not so convinced.

I like all those cards! I can see how it would be hard for you to choose. As far as cameras go. I would suggest a Nikon D40. It is an entry level SLR camera. YOu should be able to find one with lens for about $500. Nikons to me seem easier to use than Canons too. Let me know if you have any more questions
