Our Christmas card this year was a blood-sweat-and-tears type of project for me. Luckily, I found a really great set of templates at Design Aglow which got me started on a “newspaper” theme. (thank you Design Aglow for featuring this card on your blog and the gift certificate. woohoo!) I did lots of tweaking and re-sizing to the templates to achieve my vision but the toughest part was the writing. I can blab and ramble conversationally on my blog but when it came to writing a family “newsletter” I blankly stared at the computer. With the help of a friend I think the end result came out great!

The photos I used in the card were taken by iSnap Studio I am absolutely thrilled with these and just love her film work. She is so talented! I will be sharing those photos on the blog soon, too.

 

And here is the full card layout.
