Mine are going in the mail today!! I can't wait to receive the rest of the cards

many apologizes, for my small pint on the greeting on my cards it looked bigger when i previewed it. now we need a magnifying glass to read it lol.

Ronin, your card is beautiful!

I was surprised when I designed mine that I couldn't change the font cuz I don't like it! Kohdi's name looks funny in that font

Jimmy - did you use Vistaprint? I was able to do all sorts of things with the font - size, color, style. I spent weeks agonizing over various permutations on 4 different designs. Though, now, I wish I had chosen the one with the green background - Leo's and Sierra/Jack's coat color just pop against the green backgroun. But, the card with the green was really simple color blocks and a bit too vibrant for the weak color saturation of the pics I chose. And I wanted snowflakes...I settled for swirlies and doves

I still stop at the fridge in wonder, looking at the cards.

I did use Vistaprint Amy, and everytime I clicked on the font, nothing would happen. I was on my Ipad though and I'm not great on it when it comes to this stuff but I really really wanted the font of the actual message part changed. I would post a pic of the card but it'd kinda ruin it for everybody maybe? Next year I'll start it earlier and hopefully be able to play with various things more.

Amy, I LOVE your card, the colors are so wintery, its a very peaceful feeling. The pics do blend in with everything but not in a bad way, its more like its the way its supposed to look. I love it! I love everyones cards! one that really pops is Colleens, its like "Bam!! its Christmas y'all" I love all the red. Each card has something special about it, I could go on and on telling each person what I just love about their card I was just eating my dinner and looking at all the cards, its just so cool!

Here Jimmy I thought I went the easy way. I used picMonkey to combine the photos into one then utilized there font and color choices. I went to Walgreens online and picked up in the store. I did not like all the extra sayings so I decided those photos would be the card! Glad ya like it!

We've gotten the vast majority of our cards, and I love them all! We have them in a pile on our kitchen table for folks to look through.

I really do like it Colleen, it turned out beautiful!!!

Is pic monkey an app or a program? I'm needing something to combine pics into one pic. I used to be able to do it on my desktop with a art program I had on it but now I need something similar for my iPad.

Our cards finally arrived today thanks to UPS being incompetent and losing them for 2 days. So, they're going in the mail this weekend (I'll be addressing them around finishing a baby quilt tonight), and folks should be getting them next week. I've loved all the ones we've gotten so far

No worries Jimmy Mine are going out today too. So you aren't the last one!

You did good Elise, your card came today its really beautiful too!!!

Jimmy -  Picmonkey is for your browser and I do not think it works for anything mobile. It is a free photo editor that adds filters, frames, text, and effects with editing tool.

I used PicsArt on my tablet once but most times I use my desk top or an andrios collage thingy.
I hear Pixelmator is nice but never tried it. I think that is what my sis and a bunch of here Apple friends use.

I got a bunch more cards this weekend. I had to move to the next side of the column I am filling!

PS if you did not notice I threw a couple of my holiday exchange cards in with SS calendar delivery. Yes I cheapskated a couple of them! Sorry hope ya do not mind.

Thank you, the pictures came out a little dull on the card and kind of tinted dark but not to bad. I think I am going to try one of the other ones next year.

I love getting all these Christmas cards I have never gotten this many before.

Got five more cards today. We're full up. Gonna have to make a new ribbon holder!

Yay someone got mine already lol! I was thinking they may come in late

Yes! I did. it's so damn cute too!

Everyone's cards are wonderful. I love seeing them. They make me happy every time I see them.

I got your card today Rocio, thank you so much, its SO cute!

I like the way you did that display Ashleigh, very cool!

Thank you Colleen! I will look into some of those, I'm really surprised my iPad is so limited with things like that.

No worries Rocio...mine still haven't gone out. Just finished addressing all the envelopes tonight, so they're going in the mail tomorrow!

Shit Kim, I thought I was the last one to get cards out

Things have been busy...plus wrist problems and handwriting envelopes...lol

I just blame Aaron for not editing the picture for a month.

I've gotten Jimmy and Elise's and Kelly's cards this last week. Even though I got mine out in a not too bad of time frame it's hard to say how long mine sat at the post office waiting for someone to do their jobs. Yours might still beat mine to people, Mer. lol.

Jenn (Twister) I got yours! That is one great photo of you guys! And I love your tree!

lol. Thanks. It's our leftovers tree. It gets everything that our themed tree in the sunroom doesn't get. My first year doing a tree in the house where the dogs and cat are. They left it alone alright. Only had a couple of the blue icicles go missing. I'm glad you think the picture turned out okay. We didn't have anyone to take it so had to rely on my camera's timer and treat tossing in order to get everyone settled and relatively looking in the same direction.

LOL, you're lucky the treats worked for you! I brought a couple treats out in my pocket just in case I might need them when I did my pics and they would not leave me alone til they were gone!

Your pic turned out great Jenn, I really like it

got yours Rocio yesterday, very cute drawing, also got 5 more with some beautiful fur babies and very cool Christmas trees. and one with some cute carpet sharks lol. some wonder snow pictures of Ami and Archer.
