Does anyone send them out? I was thinking about sending them out this year with a photo of John & I, and then I was thinking of sending one out of Harley & Davidson, and having them made at WalMart...
I'm sure my family would call me the crazy cat lady, but they all know that already


I love getting Christmas cards in the mail! Especially the photo ones!
I also love getting Christmas letters in the mail, from family I don't see very often, with the letter telling everyone about their year, ect.

What do you do? Do you send anything at all?

I started to make mine this year but just couldn't make something I was happy with so ended up just buying some I like, but yep, I send Christmas cards and love receiving them too.

Its great at work because we get hundreds and have them everywhere

Awww, thats so cute!!

I just saw a commercial yesterday that said you can actually make your own postal stamps now! I thought that would be awesome for Christmas cards - you just upload your photo and they will mail them to you!
www.photostamps.com... I think they are a bit spendy, but I think its an awesome idea!

I sometimes send out cards. But not ones with pics on them. I dunno how I would get them made or anything. So I usually just send pics inside the invalope.

You can just take a photo to WalMart (or any other photo place) and pick out the design you like and they will make them up for you!

You did them! Where did you get them done? The only place I've seen them advertised to get them done is that photostamps.com website.

Honestly, I stopped sending them when the postage got too high - and this was a long time ago. Saved me money and feeling humiliated that almost no one else cared enough to send me one.

I used to send out about 50 cards, and only get about 12 in return, so I said the heck with that, and now I will keep some, and I'll send them out to just those that send me one.

It's a little sad, actually.

Although we were in Build A Bear last week and they had little HD Bandana's for like $12, I shoulda bought them for the boys, they woulda fit them
