This year is the first year I have actually wanted to and actually made myself send out christmas cards. I am excited about starting a new tradition in our family. Since we don't have any children I am trying to decide whether or not to include our pets in the card. I think we might just leave them out. I love getting cards around the holidays and it is always a wonderful way to catch up and see how everyone is doing.
I have been looking for the cards I like the most and Shutterfly definitely has the cutest. I have never used Shutterfly before but I have had friends who have had nothing but great experiences with them. Apparently they have great cutsomer service and they are super customer friendly. I really like that. I have been thinking over the past few months what pictures we will use. I definitely want to use one that says Merry Christmas and is cute and colorful but there are so many cute ones to choose from. I will probably have them address them too which is an awesome thing about shutterfly. All you have to do is give them the people's addresses you want to send them to and they will add postage and the address! So easy that I wish I had found them before. THere are many to choose from but these are some of my favorites!!

They also do photo books, calendars, mugs, and canvas wraps as well. I have tons of ideas of presents to get for friends and family. Their website will definitely spark your creativity!
they are great because you can personalize just for you! Shutterfly is also giving away 50 free cards if you do a blog post on their cards. I will hopefully be getting mine in a few days!! I will keep you guys updated!!
