Designing my Christmas Card

Somehow I thought this would be really easy but it is proving very difficult. Started yesterday when I realized I had a day long crop coming up and what a perfect time to get the cards taken care of! First step – picture of the family. I really felt I needed the pic done Sunday but then my husband informed me he would be gone all afternoon. OK – scratch family pic – guess it will be the just the kids instead (that’s ok they are the cutest part of the picture anyway!)

This one is nice…

  Here is a cute one….

Look at the smile on my little guy…what a cutie McCutie ;)

Wasn’t loving any one picture of all of them together. Then I remembered a card I did a few years back where I cut out 4 2x2 pics and began pondering that as an option again.

At this point I am leaning towards a 4x6 card with 3 2x2 photo blocks across the middle. Then ribbon just below with a handmade embellishment to the side.

Red cardstock, red ribbon. White snow flake on the embellishment and “Warm Wishes” greeting in white above the photo strip…..hmmmm. What to do? What to do?

I guess we will find out on Saturday!

I had fun creating this greeting. I just cut out the letters with with my cricut then I used autumn sunflowers from close to my heart to surround the greeting. Fun!!
