I've never been consistent about sending out Christmas cards, but I keep thinking it's a tradition I should get behind. Who doesn't love getting things in the mail? So when the lovely people at Pinhole Press offered me the opportunity to make some cards, I jumped at the chance.
Pinhole Press has a great selection of holiday card templates and their site is really easy to use. I played with different layouts and photos for hours before finally deciding on the design above. I think it's sort of simple and cozy, don't you? I also ordered these return address labels for a little touch of New York Christmas sparkle. It's a photo I took leaving work a couple of weeks ago. I'm so excited to stick these in the mail!
Those are so cute! I love sending Christmas Cards! Since moving to Japan, I have switched to New Year's Postcards (a Japanese tradition) but a little part of me can't wait to switch back.
ReplyDeleteI love these. The pictures you picked for the cards are awesome. Pinhole press does an amazing job!
ReplyDeleteJust lovely! I never send out cards. :(

oh gosh Natalie, I LOVE these! I may have to copy you :) We are doing our Christmas card shoot this weekend. It was 70 this past weekend so I felt silly taking them in t-shirts, but now I feel like we are behind.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I'll reveal mine tomorrow! (can you handle the excitement?!)
ReplyDeleteLovely cards - very elegant and you don't have to dress up in a Santa hat to get the idea it's a Christmas shot! I hate the idea of losing the tradition of sending christmas cards.
ReplyDeleteWe can hardly wait to get one (I hope we're on your list)! Next you have to work on your CHRISTMAS LETTER (just kidding). Great pics of the two of you. ;)
ReplyDeleteOh what fun! I don't know which I like more, the cards or the return labels, haha
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays!
Good afternoon from L.A.!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely and warm Christmas cards, Natalie! I bet you are giddy about sending them out this year. Sometimes cards can be a hassle to get out, but Pinhole looks like it puts the fun back into it. I'm going to try them out~once I get the children to sit still for more than five minutes ;)
Thanks for sharing!
Warmly,
Elizabeth
PS~If you're looking for a great holiday drink, I'd love for you to check out the Hot Buttered Rum recipe I featured on my blog today.

ReplyDeleteyou make christmas cards look good....
ReplyDeleteSoo cute! I love sending and getting holiday cards.
ReplyDeleteWell done! Love them. I always send out cards....I vow to never send an e-card. Never ever. ;)
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful for big mailings! Does anyone have any ideas for custom cards for special gifts for the holidays? I'm looking for ideas for something really personal.
