Do-It-Yourself: Christmas Cards

Hey everyone - so obvioulsy we got some family pictures taken and I'm just thrilled at how it all came out - Audrey was HORRIBLE, so i'm surprised that she got even one good one! I wanted to share a cheap way to do your Christmas cards this year (I just did mine yesterday... so it's not too late!). Using Scrapblog you can make blog headers, but you can also make other images - that turn out to be a 5x7 size.

Once you create your design (by the way there are lots that are already premade and you just put your pictures into them - that is what my blog header is) make sure to SAVE then PUBLISH. After publishing it you can EXPORT as a JPEG and just save it somewhere on your computer. Then upload to SNAPFISH - I'm reommending this site because until tomorrow (Thursday) they have free shipping: Code - SHIP08 AND their 5x7 prints are only $0.39/each..I just bought the 5x7 envelopes at Hobby Lobby. {the 4x6 print price is only $0.09}

(this is not my card **here is an example of a premade card** -i don't know these cute people!) I had lots of fun making mine from scratch exactly the way I wanted them - but if that doesn't sound like your idea of a good time, the premade ones are really pretty..

I don't think you can get a cheaper Christmas Card than that... and not to mention they are CUSTOM! :) double check the image in snapfish to make sure nothing got cut off.. just a little on each side of mine did - but it was no big deal since the picture was towards the middle. I plan on doing birth announcements this way too.. gotta love it! :) email me or comment if you have questions! :)
