This weekend, I finally mailed off a good chunk of my holiday cards to friends and family near and far (seriously so glad to have this one behind me now). I try yearly to come up with a different look and feel to it even if it is the same two kids’ faces that grace the card itself.
Our Christmas Card 2013-Photos from Target, Card from Tiny Prints!I try my best to take a look at what the companies that I am familiar with in their card offerings have and see what will work for the pictures I have to play with.
I get my Christmas pictures of the girls taken professionally at our local Target this one time a year. But many times, I am truly looking for great photo inspiration, because the rest of the year the photos are up to Kevin and I, because I refuse to pay a professional photography company, like Target the rest of the year. I think I am pretty descent with the camera and know Kevin truly is (hey he went to school for this). But still I wish I was more handy with the camera and photo ideas, but I am seriously always on the lookout for photo inspiring tips.
Recently, Tiny Prints e-mailed me to see if I would share a blog article that they published on their own blog.
Most know, I love the company from years back, but also have worked with them this past year in an affiliate capacity.
I was truly overjoyed that they reached out to me to share their recent article and then I took a better look at the post and knew that this articles was not only beneficial to me, but also to many if not most of my readers for the overall amount of photo tips not just for holiday cards (if you are still in the process great ideas), but for photo taking all year round, too shared here in this one place.
From playing with framing to capturing the expected, they have inspiring photo ideas galore for all those in need.
So, without further ado, please click the article title to read Tiny Prints blog article titled aptly enough, 100 Inspiring Holiday Card Photos.
And stay tuned this week, because if you thought last week’s Tiny Print offers were gift-astic and amazing for all your gifting needs, I promise this week will blow your socks off! And I will totally be sharing them with you as they become available daily (promise).

Thanks so much Bill and has been a wonderful weekend with going to movies and seeing Santa with the girls on Friday and going out to dinner alone with Kevin last night. Worked a bit today, but now going to bake some cookies and hoping you too are having great weekend, as well!! 🙂
