So, another Christmas tradition, in our family, is making our own cards. We love to think and think about what we will do for that year. The card usually involves some type of photo of the children…..though one year we had them draw the card.
It doesn’t always go as planned or as smoothly as I had hoped…..but in the end, we always love them. I usually work with the photo in Photoshop and print them out using Publisher. Sometimes we get them printed at a print shop, but most times I print them out at home using cardstock.
After doing the upside down chin photos earlier this month for my blog, my daughter Tuesday, decided those would be perfect for our Christmas card.
For quite a few years now, we wanted to do a twist on the family Christmas letter….. and then finally we thought of MadLibs. So, this year, we decided to combine the two ideas…and we made up a Christmas family letter in MadLib form. It was a lot of fun coming up with the letter…but it was hard to put it into the right format, so it looked just like the real MadLibs.
In the end, I think our Christmas cards reflected who we are as a family…..pretty goofy!
