Luckily, you can make any photo look decent if it is built on a really cute card. Heather from Chickabug has simple, modern printables on her etsy site as unique alternatives to the typical Costco options I usually go to. I won a gift certificate toward her shop as a runner-up in Crafting With The Stars, and I knew she was my go-to for 2010 Family Christmas Cards. She customized this card option to fit the ONE photo wherein we are all sitting still and looking at least near the camera with smiles. ONE photo out of a bazillion! But, that’s all it takes!
I sent her the photo, and she had a proof back to me the very next morning, and another proof, and another (I kept changing my mind and made her jump through hoops for me), and I was absolutely impressed with her promptness in helping me get what I wanted.
She doesn’t have just Christmas cards! All her party printables make me want to be one of those cool moms who has water bottles that match the favors and cupcake liners and… it just goes on and on.
Sooooo, I was just so impressed I had to share my experience with you.
And now you know what my family looks like behind the scenes!

Cuuuute! Where did you guys do the pics? We really need to get some decent family pics...
