Our 2017 Christmas Card

Our Christmas cards have all been sent out so I can finally share them with all of you! Our first Christmas as a family of FIVE. I still can’t believe it. 

I LOVE getting Christmas cards in the mail every year. And my kids love it too! We hold on to all of them and go through them all daily. It’s such a fun tradition and I love seeing how everyone’s families have grown and changed over the year. 
I tried to keep things pretty simple this year with our card….but I’m a sucker for anything with glitter on it. So when I saw this Tiny Prints for Shutterfly card I couldn’t resist. 
I love how they turned out! The little details are perfect. 

But the back of our card is my very favorite. This photo of the three kids all looking at the camera is nothing short of a Christmas miracle!
You can view all of the holiday cards by Shutterfly here. I’m always impressed with the quality of the cards and how easy it is to order them. They also addressed all of my cards for me (yes!!!) so sending them was a breeze. 
I wish I could send all of you a Christmas card! Thank you so much for following along with me this year!
I partnered with Shutterfly for this post but all opinions are my own.

Our Christmas Card

Our Christmas cars have been mailed (probably not received yet, oops?) but I couldn’t wait to show you how cute they turned out! So if you are on my Christmas card list, pretend to be surprised when your card arrives this week. We didn’t have professional pics this year but I still love it. We snapped this photo at our new house in our new back yard! We live in the woods, so it’s going to be a great backdrop in the years to come! I thought about getting a photo of us in front of the house, but it is a construction zone, so it was a huge mess.

I snapped this photo for the back of the card and it is one of my favorites. These two have me wrapped around their little fingers.

We ordered our cards through Tiny Prints and they did not disappoint!

I keep coming back to Tiny Prints each year because they have a great selection of Christmas cards and the quality is always great. This time I opted to get Christmas tree envelop liners and I love how they turned out!

Totally my most favorite card ever. It describes us perfectly: Blessed and Merry.

Merry Christmas from our little family! I wish I could send you each a card!

*Tiny Prints sent us our Christmas cards, but all thoughts and opinions are my own.

Our Christmas Card

I think by now everyone should have received our Christmas card in the mail…and if not…well, spoiler alert…it’s a cute one!
We used Tiny Prints again this year and I couldn’t be happier! The cards arrived so quickly and I couldn’t wait to pop them in the mail!

 photo IMG_9249.jpg
I went with a fun scalloped edge this year to make it a little different…so cute!
 photo IMG_9241.jpg
To display some of our past year’s cards, I used a cute holly garland on our buffet to hang them. I love watching our little family grow!

 photo IMG_9245.jpg
The ones with Wrigley are my favorites. He is such a good boy and I would have loved to have him in our Christmas card this year….but it’s hard enough wrangling a two year old boy…adding a dog in to the mix would have pushed me over the edge. 

 photo IMG_9236.jpg
All our cards! I plan on keeping these forever. They are some of my most cherished memories. 
Close up of our Tiny Prints card. Aren’t you just dying over Hudson’s thumbs up? He never does that (so it’s probably an accident) but we thought it was too funny and too cute. 
Last year I put our old cards up on our gallery wall….but I was too lazy to do that this year!
So cute, right?

 photo IMG_4507copy.jpg
And speaking of last year, I stumbled upon this gem. OMG.
Have you ordered your Christmas cards yet? Be sure to check out the selection of cards at Tiny Prints…I promise you will find something you love!

Our Christmas Card

We finally got all of our Christmas cards sent out! This year we chose Tiny Prints and couldn’t be happier! I am always impressed with the quality of their cards. We chose a foil stamped card this year and it is so pretty! I love the simplicity of it all. The red foil is hand stamped on each card and makes it really unique!
Isn’t the back cute? I love Christmas cards so much!
 Every year I display each of our Christmas cards in our home in a different way. This year I decided to incorporate them in to our gallery wall. 
 I love how Christmasy it makes the whole room feel!
Print from For the Love of Letters.
 
LOVE how it turned out!

Still need to order your Christmas card? You are in luck, because there is still time! Tiny Prints is even offering 25% off and there are plenty of beautiful styles to choose from!

    December 16, 2013 at 5:27 pm

    Love how you display the cards. Such precious memories right there on your wall! I am still trying to figure out how to display our cards…Since I don't have a gallery wall that would work for that, I'm thinking about just buying a big album/scrapbook and putting the Christmas card for the year, along with Caleb's picture with Santa in it. Then we'll have one album just for those things!

  15. Jodi says
