Have you thought about yours yet? I decided to do a little bit of looking around on one of my favorite photo and cards sites, Tiny Prints, for some inspiration.
For my Christmas cards, I do have a few requirements. They have to include a Scripture passage - Christmas is all about Jesus' birth! I like this one (Behold Joy) for the passage.
I also like lots of spaces for photos, usually one family shot and a bunch of the kids, plus pictures of big events from the year since we also include our yearly family newsletter with the cards. This one (Seasonal Sprinkles) is fun and festive and has lots of photo spots.
And then, I found one I really like. Bible passage? Check. Several photo spots? Check. I still have a little while to keep looking, but I think this one (Born This Day) might be the winner.
And so can you! Tiny Prints has generously offered to give one of my readers a $50 credit off of their total order. Now you can get to work on your cards too! The code cannot be combined with other offers, and does not include tax and shipping.
To enter, just leave me a comment telling me what your requirements are for your Christmas cards. Please make sure to include your e-mail address when you comment so I can contact you if you are the winner.
The comments will close at 11:59pm (central time) on October 28, and the winner will have 24 hours to respond with their mailing information so I can get them their code.
While you're waiting to find out if you're the winner, be sure to check out the Tiny Prints Special Offers page for more good deals.
This is a sponsored post. I received a Tiny Prints credit for writing it, but as always, all opinions are my own.
Cute idea Katy! Mine always has to say something religious (I usually can't find a passage one I like but both of those are cute). I try and switch up how many pictures from year to year, just so it helps make each one look a little different year after year. Hope I win! I've never used Tiny Prints, but they have cute stuff! egrundmeier@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI also like to find something that is about the true meaning of Christmas, and especially avoid Happy Holdiays! I don't have to have too many pictures. If I can just get one good one of all the kids looking the same way, I'm set! Thanks for posting this, Katy! pk2of2@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteAgreed on the Biblical component. Also, there has to be a picture of Mom & Dad and not just the kids so that when people open the card they know who it's from {instead of just some random kids they don't recognize}. feedmyfamilyblog@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteMy requirements include, religious and it has to say "Merry Christmas". I also like to have at least three picture spots on the inside, one for each kid. My e-mail is Joni.Moldstad@blc.edu
ReplyDeleteI'm not real good about doing Christmas cards every year, and I've actually never ordered printed photo cards before. But when I do Christmas cards, they have to be about Jesus! I also like to include one nice family photo.

My requirements are similar to yours. I love a Scripture passage or reference. I also want 4 photo spots: one for a family picture and 3 for the kids. I love Christmas cards/letters and send one each year! Rachel - gotredskittles@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteLike most everyone who has already posted, I want the card theme to be about Christ since he is the reason for the season. Unlike most everyone, we don't have kids, but have 2 cats and 2 dogs...so being the crazy animal lover that I am, I'd want room for pictures of our "kids". Oh, and at least one of us too. traciw@blc.edu
ReplyDeleteIt must say MERRY CHRISTMAS and have some cute and fun pictures of my kids. I send the cards to people that we don;t get to see very often, so they can see how much the kids have grown.

I like for the card to say Merry Christmas and be unique. I also love when there is space for more than one photo, because I can never pick just one!

I too require that it be Christ-centered. I won't buy it if it says "Happy Holidays" or has Santa on it. I also prefer, but do not require, a classic, simple design with pretty script and just a bit of sparkle :)

DeleteMy requirements are a bit more simpler. We mostly do our cards as a celebration of the year that is coming to a close. I love to do the photo grids so I can include as many pictures as possible, simple colors and designs so that it could be displayed after the holidays and even framed, and the year. :) We are easy! :)

There has to be a Bible verse and HAS to have room for pictures...especially because we are expecting a new little one this year <3

My requirements are that it reflects our family throughout the year.

The last four years we have made photo cards, with kids I like the extended family to see updated pics.
