The last three years in a row our Christmas cards went out after New Years. Half a stack is always found a week later and by March I am sending the last round. This year I resolved it WILL be different.

The cards arrived yesterday and the stamps were bought today so there is nothing to stop me now …. with the exception of a spilled coffee on my parade.

I usually design and print my own, but somehow the cropping and coloring was never right with the company I used. Needless to say I was thrilled when Pinhole Press asked if I wanted to try their cards this year. Um yes. Only a humble fan for many moons now.

They didn’t disappoint. Crystal clear color and design and endless options to choose from. I thought I would do the old send a summary letter of your year thing to friends and fam afar and loved this design option. The letters are going to be complete and sealed with Lemon and Lavender’s Believe Stamp and off the Christmas cheer will go on a prompt date sometime BEFORE Christmas:)

I also tried out the giant paper magnetic calendar which I plugged in photos for to each month. JUST the right size for my kids to add their artistic touch too AND leave room for my attempts at organizing our life;)

And got doubly excited when Pinhole Press decided to offer readers 33% off Holiday Cards with code IHOD through Dec. 3rd!
Hope you enjoy friends!
