2017 Christmas Cards
I always look forward to Christmas card season. From giving and receiving, I love that the art of “snail mail” is still sticking around. When it comes to taking the picture for our Christmas cards, I realize each year that both my husband, Richard, and Ella are a little less enthusiastic. Regardless, they both seem to humor me year after year.
This year, we decided to take our pictures in front of an old historic home in Fredericksburg, Virginia and luckily there were not many people there, making it ideal for taking pictures! I always complain about Virginia being a colonial state with brick as far as the year can see. It typically is not the best for everyday outfit pictures, but it does work around Christmastime!
Minted
For those who are not familiar, Minted is a community of independent artists and designers located in all 50 states and more than 60 countries. From artwork to stationery and everything in between, Minted’s collection never disappoints. We have ordered our Christmas cards from Minted in the past and even ordered invitations to my cousin’s bridal shower last summer!
Minted Holiday Cards
I have ordered our Christmas cards from Minted in the past, and I am always impressed with the quality and special details their cards include. Like many services, ordering the cards online is so simple. But, I love that Minted offers a free recipient addressing along with adding a return address to the back of your envelopes. And did I mention the number of styles Minted has to chose from? The most difficult decision I faced when designing our cards was picking just one design!
Merry Christmas
Wishing you and yours and wonderful, safe and Merry Christmas! I am so thankful for each and every one of you for your support each day. I will be back next Wednesday with a special New Year’s Eve recipe but until then, have a fabulous holiday with your family and friends!
Thank you to Minted for sponsoring this post. As always, all opinions are my own.

Love your cards… and clearly, the pup is proud of mom and dad, too!! Minted is a lifesaver. I was scrolling through my Facebook memories this morning and seeing how I used to have to address all my cards by hand… they look so much better now, lol!
Your cards turned out amazing! I love the envelopes too! Your pup is such a cute model!
