Disclosure: I participated in an Ambassador Program on behalf of Mom Central Consulting (#MC) for Cardstore. I received complimentary cards and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.
I remember the first Christmas that I spent in the first home that I purchased over 20 years ago. I had bought a Christmas tree, but did not have cash to decorate it with lots of ornaments. So I bought lots of ribbon and made beautiful red and gold bows that I used to decorate my tree. And as holiday cards poured in through the mail, I taped them around my door frames and hung them all over the tree. I loved looking at the holiday cards - most with photos tucked inside - from all my special friends and I remember feeling very happy and very blessed.
Till this day, I love to receive holiday cards from my friends and family. And I especially love getting the personalized ones with family photos and personalized humorous and heartfelt messages. Back 20 years ago, very few people could afford personalized cards because the process meant you would need to hire a professional photographer for the photos and a local print shop to typeset the cards.
But now, personalized holiday cards can be made with very little money and very little time. And with all the stress from holiday shopping, cooking, and travel, free time around the holidays is something that most of us have very little of.
This may be the happiest time of the year, but it also can be the most stressful too. That is why I love ordering personalized holiday cards online. And one of the best online companies for getting great personalized cards at a great price is one that I have used many times over the last 18 months - Cardstore.
Cardstore allows you get as creative as you like with your cards... |
I have featured Cardstore many times on this blog in the past two years, including their numerous FREE card promotions and I have found that their cards turn out wonderful - and no one would ever know how easy they are to make and that I did not actually mail them. I have made personalized Mother's Day cards, Birthday Cards, and Holiday Cards using Cardstore and they all turned out great.
With Cardstore, you create an online account, upload photos that you want to use in your cards, and then either make your card from scratch or use one of the many templates that are available to design special cards that friends and family will want to keep and cherish.
