From the past or present!

I'm trying to do a card from scratch because I'm using Penny's Bent Bunch #03 for my photos.

I so SUCK at cards. I am terrible at paper cards and obviously no better at digi cards and this is my first attempt. I'd love to see everyone else's so I can lift one. I'm doing 4x8 and hopefully double-sided.
 
I would if I had one! I still need to get my pic taken so I can make one!

I am not sure I even kept any of my previous ones. Bad me!
 
I gave up on getting a new photo of the boys - one is sick and I'm just running out of time. So I used recent photos instead.
 
Just keep it simple hon. If you're using a bent bunch, I would just have a BG piece of paper, and then a strip of solid paper to write the greeting on. Throw a few elements on there and you're good to go :)

This is mine from this year. 5x7 greeting card.

Here's mine:

The back has a message about the joy of Christmas, etc. and our family's name.

(Used TLP's Nov. BYOC); printing through Vistaprint.
 
I actaully just posted a thread asking if anyone thought this one looked "OK". I'm thinking of using it for our card this year!!!

i dont even have a photo yet for our card. im super behind on that this year.

im hoping to have them ordered by this weekend, but we're going to a holiday boutique saturday then it's tree "hunting" and decorating on sunday... so hopefully i will have a sane moment to get it done... but, probably not...

This is so stinkin' cute, Kresta!!

Here's our card. I printed them at Winkflash and just grabbed the most recent picture cause I thought the card sale was ending (of course, 3 weeks later they're still on sale ;) ).

Awwww, such beautiful cards!! Here's mine, they were printed in size 3" x 2" so were small enough for Brooke to give to her school buddies!!

We're sending this to our closest friends and family. I'm also making paper cards for everyone.

Edit - eek... will this pseudo HTML editor let me re-size?

Here's mine! I LOVED Dani's Candy Coated Greetings.... such bright fun colors! I adapted it though to fit a 4x8.
