merry & bright: card delight

I'm trying not to get ahead of myself in holidays,

but I must admit I'm thinking about

Christmas cards.

I love 'em...

taking the photos,

all the cute designs,

the creativity.

And of course I save them.

I love to look back and see

the families and how the kids

have grown year to year.
I gather them up at the end of each
season and tie with a pretty bow...
to be gazed at for years to come.

I'm an invitation/announcement
loving gal, so of course
I've already scoured the popular

holiday card sites, and I have a few

"front runner" cards.
Full disclosure: a few = 30ish,
so you can see my challenge in
whittling that down to one favorite design.
(sigh)

I'm loving a whole lot of cards on Tiny Prints.
They have SO MANY to look at...
literally 1,000+...
in whatever style makes you happy.

classic - colorful - charming - whimsical

cards upon cards upon cards.
For instance, how great is this tri-fold card?

Colorful Lace

I pondered over Makayla's

birth announcements

for quite a while, and

ended up ordering them

from Tiny Prints.

They turned out so well

and I couldn't wait to send them out

after she was born.
It's hard to believe that was
almost 18 months ago.

Here are some of my favorites this year:

colorful letters

I love the Christmas colored lettering
with a hint of pink tossed in.
Having a girl you can totally get away
with adding pink to everything, which I love.
Also, I'm digging the single B&W image...
such a simple twist to this bright and fun card!

Fun Filled Christmas

Talk about fun, with the rainbow backing?

It says "Wishing you a Christmas filled with

Joy, Love, Peace, Cheer & Family!"

This may be a winner this winter...

Vivid Slant

This one, with the slanted stripes, if so festive
and makes me smile. I am really fond of
these tri-fold cards and am secretly
hoping we get so make good
photos to choose from that a
tri-fold is the "must have" way to go.

And these ornament cards...just adorable!
Joy, Peace, Fun

Hang this baby (with a photo of my baby) right on the tree!

I don't know if I want to go classic of colorful this year!?!
They are all so great...
and I kind of {heart} them all.
What say you?

but filled with only my own wonderful thoughts and
opinions...love their work and the quality. I only wish
folks sent out cards for each season!}
