Christmas in July
By Laurie | July 6, 2011
If you know me, you know I adore stationary. Choosing our yearly holiday card is one of my favorite things to do. In the past few years card trends have moved from traditional to more colorful and fun photo Christmas cards.
| Earlier this year I discovered a fun new site, Storkie.com. In addition to photo cards, they have a great selection of other unique and stylish Christmas cards too. |  |
It’s never too early to take a peak at new designs and trends and decide what style to go with in December. You’ve heard the term Christmas in July, right? There is no shame! Here is one of my favorites that is simple, yet matches my preference for black & white designs. I definitely see one of many glittering Eiffel Tower photos being perfect for this one. Just picture me, Dave and lots of twinkling lights. It will be perfect.
The fun thing about photo cards is looking back and seeing how your friends and family’s children have grown. What do you do with the cards you have received in previous years? Since building our house almost four years ago, we’ve spent three holidays here. When I fully pack up the decorations in February, I always stash the cards we received that year in the box with the ornaments. The next year when decorating, I go back and look at the cards from year’s past. I am the type of person who never-throws-anything-away. I keep everything. I have cards my parents and grandparents gave me when I was a child. Rest assure that if you send us a card at the holidays it will be enjoyed for years to come.
What style card are you thinking about for 2011?
