On 7th December – Christmas Cards

Yesterday afternoon, we tackled and completed our Christmas card list.

It is always something I approach with mixed emotions – going through the list, it brings friends and family to mind who we may not have seen for a while, those who have had a wonderful year (weddings, births, significant birthdays) and those for whom the year has been tough (illness, bereavement, family tragedies). 

How do you find sending Christmas cards?  Do you still do it? Do you email a card instead? Or send a Christmas message on Facebook?

Most of our card recipients are not also blog readers, so I will share our family Christmas Card here.

Consider this your Christmas wish from me to you, and if you REALLY want a “real” card, feel free to print it out and set it on your mantlepiece!

I made it using Jolly Holiday by Weeds & Wildflowers, and my kids reluctantly happily posed to a couple or hundred of pics until I was happy! At least no Santa hats were involved in the production of this card.

I am so pleased with how the store looks and functions, thanks to Cathy from Desparately Seeking WordPress who carefully led me to the dark side of WordPress!

Finally, those who follow my daily Christmas blogging posts will know I LOVE nativity sets, and I would love to see those belong to any other bloggers out there.
So, on 21st December I am having a Christmas Nativity Carnival.  Please come back then and post a link to any blog post about Nativity Sets, and there will be a prize! In the meantime, spread the word and/or wear this button on your blog.

Come back tomorrow for more Christmas ramblings and daily blogging.
