Holiday Photo Card Favorites

November 26, 2013 // kristen // 0 replies

Over the past few years, the market for holiday photo cards has grown by leaps and bounds. As a result, we have so many beautifully designed cards to choose from, and the designs can accomodate everything from a single, full bleed or framed personal photo to a collage of several photos – whatever works best for you and your family.

This year, thanks to the huge trend in foil stamped paper goodies, a few of the larger companies are also offering a selection of foil pressed designs in gold, silver, and red. Love it! Here are some of my favorite designs from this year’s crop:

Whimsy Whimsical Holiday

November 19, 2013 // kristen // 1 replies

I find all things Whimsy Whimsical to be pretty irresistible. I mean, how could I not be completely enamored with the absolutely adorable woodland critters that inhabit the landscape of their paper goodies? And their new holiday collection makes my heart swell. Scarved owls, foxes, and bunnies singing Christmas carols? A hot air ballooning fox and bear? Reindeer sipping hot cocoa? So cute!
