50 Free Christmas Cards from Shutterfly

Shutterfly is having an amazing promotion in which they give away 50 free Christmas photo cards this holiday season! That’s right folks, I said FREE! I’m glad that I hadn’t already ordered Christmas cards yet! After checking out their website, we have narrowed down the design for our Christmas cards this year to two designs. We like the Pop Art Ornaments design and the Polka Dot Wishes design. I guess you will just have to wait to see which one we order! I know, I know the suspense is killing you! This is an awesome deal and I am pretty excited about it!

After perusing the rest of their website, I am considering getting Nathan a desk photo calendar for when we move back to Peoria and he starts his new job. It will be practical and remind him of family at the same time! I really think he would like it, but shhhh, don’t tell him, it’s a secret. Since I’m not sure how often he actually reads the blog, we will see if he finds out before I actually do it! I was really impressed at all of the different designs they offer, even for desk calendars! I will probably go with something simple and understated for Nathan but if I order other ones for family or myself, I can do something more bold and fun!

Also, Shutterfly seems to have good prices on photo cards, so depending on how pleased we are with our Christmas cards when they arrive, we will likely order the invitations for Ben’s birthday party in June from their website as well! I really wanted to order photo card invitations for his 1st birthday party but got busy and I ran out of time, so unfortunately, I didn’t get to, so I plan to get them this year. They are more personal and fun! I haven't taken the time to really look at all of the designs for the birthday cards and we haven't chosen a theme for his party yet, since it will be in June, but I am sure I will find a design I really like!

I have some other photo projects to work on as well, so hopefully Shutterfly will be able to facilitate these projects as well! I don’t want to give away too many details though because some of them may be gifts. I will likely order some prints to check out their quality. I know that this blog is somewhat out unorthodox for me but it is supposed to be promoting their products and website, so I am doing my best to do just that! And did I mention that I get 50 free cards just for blogging about it! I am blogging from Nathan's laptop and all of our pictures are on the desktop computer, so I'm not able to include a photo in this post. I guess you will have to wait for my next blog post or Christmas card to arrive in the mail for a new photo of Ben!
