I have been searching for weeks now for the perfect Christmas card. I have spent hours of my life that I won't get back looking at Snapfish, Shutterfly, Minted, TinyPrints, etc. and still couldn't find the perfect Christmas card. Okay, let me re-phrase that. I found plenty of beautiful cards...for the cost of my first born child! I mean seriously? $175 for 50 Christmas cards?!?! I just couldn't justify that. So, it dawned on me today...Etsy! Why have I not thought of this before? The self-proclaimed Etsy Queen? Well, let me tell you I have hit the Christmas card jackpot! The selection is so huge that it is almost overwhelming. So, of course, I decided to post some of my faves here and you can take a look for yourself. Once you find the card you like, (most shops will do any tweaking for you) you purchase the file, send your photo(s) via email and the shop will send a proof back for you. Once approved, they will email you the file and you can use any online print shop you like (Shutterfly, Snapfish, Photobucket, etc) to print the card for you. Simple as that! I haven't quite picked mine yet. I have it narrowed down and I am thinking I can spend around $75 for 75-100 cards plus envelopes plus stamps and I think I am overshooting the price here. Aww, once again. Etsy has saved me!
I spent way too many hours doing the same exact thing! I felt like I wasted my day! They are so expensive! I finally decided to go with one from Snapfish! :) These are too cute!
