The holidays are right around the corner and I could not be more excited to start planning our annual Christmas cards. I've learned that you will find alot of deals on holiday cards now, and it really simplifies the process, and it's just one less thing you have to worry about doing this holiday season. Below I’m sharing my favorite tips for selecting the perfect holiday card.
Photo
Prior to know to select the perfect card. I narrow down my sections with the photo. I typically send two different cards out per year. One that’s more romantic, and another one that’s fun. I create a file on your phone and/or computer for potential photos throughout the year. This makes the search for the perfect photo so much easier.
Matching
When selecting the perfect card. I always narrow my search around the photo. I wouldn’t select an orange card if everyone in the photo is wearing neon pink. I would go with a black theme or a theme that really brings out the photo and color my family is wearing.
Sending
It’s so important to know when to order and send your cards. The sooner is always better. Don’t wait until the last minute to order your cards. You can always order more if needed or even opt to send out a second round of cards in a different design. I typically send my cards out the week after Thanksgiving. Alot of sites now offer the option to buy now and personalize later.
No photo Let’s face it, sometimes it’s so hard to find the perfect photo, or maybe you just want to send a non-photo card this year. Their are tons of no photo card options. I love using the non-photo cards to include the kiddos school photo for friends and family.
