PRICELESS Christmas Card

Christmas_Card_500I was house sitting for a friend who already had their Christmas tree decorated. I decided to take advantage of it and try to get a decent picture of both my kiddos in front of the tree. I quickly realized that it’s easier to have an assistant to help get both kids to look at the camera at the same time. After looking at the 80 plus photos, I couldn’t help but giggle at some of the ones of my son crying, and was so tempted to send one of those with the title “Guess who just found out he’s on the naughty list…” LOL! I couldn’t decide on just one photo though, and got the idea to do a photo collage. Since I was house sitting I didn’t have access to a computer, so I brought my camera to Walmart and used their photo lab to print out all the pictures. I also bought shiny red wrapping paper. I laid out all the photos on the wrapping paper, leaving room at the top for writing. So this is actually a picture of all the pictures. A few days later, I arrived home and was able to add the words in photoshop elements, and then printed them off myself. I received lots of compliments about my card and they enjoyed seeing all the different expressions and poses of my kids. :D Enjoy the card!
