Good morning! I hope you are all having a great Wednesday! Today I’m hopping along with some amazing bloggers for an awesome Holiday Photo Card Blog Hop organized by Darlene over at Live Love Cards. The whole point of today’s card was to incorporate a photo into a holiday card in some way. There are so many fun stops along this blog hop so be sure to start at the beginning! There are also 9 amazing prizes to be won!
When I was trying to think what I should do for my card I struggled at first on what to even have the picture be of. A lot of holiday cards that are sent out have photos of kids and spouses and I wanted to go in a different direction. I thought it would be fun to design a card that was a throw back photo. The photo I chose was of me when I was three in my pink snow suit and Ernie pin.
The family and friends who receive this card will probably have a little laugh at this funny picture of me, and I thought that would be a good thing to share around the holidays.
Today I’ve got a video to share with you that shows exactly how I put the cards together.
Be sure to keep hopping along in the blog hop to see all the awesome projects!
