50 free holiday cards from Shutterfly

I am super excited about this. Giving and receiving Christmas cards during the holidays is one of my favorite traditions - no matter what time of year it is, I love sending and receiving mail - especially cards I make on Shutterfly!

When I was little my mom would tape each card and picture we received the door frame between our kitchen and entryway. Now in our house I hang them around the fireplace and on put them on the mantle. I looked forward to coming home from work and going through the mail to see what new cards came each day. I always feel so loved and blessed to have so many people care enough about our family to send us a card. It is these kinds of feelings that make Christmas so magical for me.

I've already completed my Christmas cards this year. If you haven't started yours, take a look at Shutterfly's site: http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/christmas-photo-cards. They have excellent designs no matter what style you are going for. This year my cards are classic and timeless – I love them!

Next up for me I'll be using Shutterfly for our birth announcements. Check out all of the cool designs they have here: http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/baby-cards-stationery. As of today I am 27 weeks! Only about 13 more weeks to go! I can't wait!

Another thing I've used Shutterfly for is their calendars. Check them out here: http://www.shutterfly.com/calendars/desk-calendars. They make excellent gifts, especially for grandparents, etc. I know we'll be making some filled with pictures of the baby next Christmas to give away as gifts.
