The Real Christmas Card

This is the Christmas card I made with paint.net (free photo-editing software) and planned to have printed and send to everyone. When I sent one to be printed, it turned out really dark and the brown looked black, and there wasn't time to send it to a bunch of different places to see if it would come out better if I had it printed somewhere else, so I had to just get one of the generic ones from the photography place. So the lesson I learned is don't wait until the week before Christmas to print your Christmas cards!

Love it! When we got your snail mail Christmas card Alyn said "Stuart's boy looks just like him!" Cute family! I totally understand the Christmas card frustration factor. I have it every year and will until I can print my own cards with confidence. No one can ever do just what I want!

I loved your card this year! I thought it was funny that you chose the same colors I had used on our card (since our birth announcements were similar, too.)
