Free is my Favorite.

It will come to no shock to you all that I am always looking for a deal.  I love getting the best price on just about anything and when I score something awesome I get WAY too excited.

Speaking of, remember my sell out post a couple weeks ago?  You know, the one where I gushed about Shutterfly?  Well here comes some more gushing.  I LOVE SHUTTERFLY.  Why, oh why?  Probably because I just got the 50 free holiday cards I earned by blogging about them.  You read that right, 50 free cards.  And Envelopes.  And I barely had to lift a finger.  Talk about a steal--- that is a $119 value steal.  WOOT.

To continue the love fest, I must admit, the cards turned out awesome.  I cannot yet share their beauty since I want everyone to be surprised when they get them in the mail.  Eeeeeee!

It's the most wonderful time of the Year....

Although it is nearly 70 degrees and sunny as can be today, the holidays are in deed sneaking up on us.  And with the holidays comes all of the hustle, and bustle and of course all of the traditions.

One tradition that Matt and I have had since we have been together is our Christmas card.  We take great pride in our Christmas creations, and always try to find that perfect balance between funny and sweet.  Last year was probably our least inspired card so I am definitely trying to make up for it this year.  

Luckily, we have a clever ally in Shutterfly.  As you all know, we have a share site where we keep all of our pictures of our family (Check em out HERE).  The site also has a ton of Christmas (or Holiday if you so choose) cards for you to choose from.  You can browse their complete selection here: http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/holiday-cards
Now that our lives are Charlie filled we have a little less time for all of the cutting, scoring and folding so partnering and using a site like Shutterfly is a pretty darn good choice.


Want to see a couple of my favorites?
I am a sucker for the Holly Jolly font.. or what about...
Or this?

Of course I am not going to let the cat out of the bag on which we are actually choosing, but you can be sure it will be adorable :)

Once you are on the site they also have many a photo- related gift.  Like these calendars. Or you can always use these gift tags... super cute.  I might have to make some grandma gifts with Charlie.

Do you love Shutterfly as much as we do?  Bloggers get 50 free holiday cards from Shutterfly… learn more: http://bit.ly/sfly2010
