Personalized Christmas Cards cheap - Ideas:

Photo cards are always very popular and well received. Here are a few ideas to get you started:

  1. For a single person - take a picture of yourself or of you and your pet. No pet? Then take a picture of one of your favorite rooms in your house or perhaps your garden.
  2. For a family - you can take the standard picture of the whole family. Or, you might send one with just the youngest child so people will see how much they have grown since last Christmas. Add a pet in the picture for extra cuteness. Another idea is to take a picture that has the youngest and oldest child together.
  3. For a couple - how about a romantic look? You can position the two of you on each side of a lit candle facing the candle and looking at each other. Very nice and intimate looking picture.
  4. Add a festive touch - take the picture with presents in it, or a Christmas centerpiece, and of course the Christmas tree makes a nice addition to the photo.
  5. Keep it simple - Focus on the subject and don't include a lot of detail to detract from the main idea of the picture. A close up can be very effective. Try not to clutter it up with a lot of different colors.

For our large family we usually dress people up in one of two colors, like blue and red. It adds a nice, professional touch to the picture.
