Holiday Cards : a cardstore.com preview and a poll!

Aloha Friday @ An Island Life Hello Aloha Friday participants! If you are pressed for time, just scroll to the bottom of this post and check out the last THREE (3) sample holiday cards and tell me : Which of the three cards do you like best? That’s my question for this week – A, B or C? I really appreciate your input! If you’ve got more time on your hands, of course feel free to read the whole post. I’ve showcased some really cute card designs from cardstore.com for anyone still working on their holiday cards.

Where do you shop for your Christmas cards? Do you still head to the store and buy a big box of folded cards or have you joined the ranks of photo card shoppers? I’m going to be reviewing cardstore.com and their selection of holiday cards and stationary soon, but in the meantime I’ve got to choose a card – and there are a lot to choose from! Being on the photo card end of the shopper spectrum, I was immediately drawn to their fun designs. Here are some of my favorites:

Santa Approved photo card @ cardstore.com

I love love love this card but just couldn’t find the right picture for it.

I think it’s one of the best designs they have though – you know you want it.

snowflake plaque photo card @ cardstore.com

This one made me laugh, too.

Don’t you kind of want to steal their photos and use them as is?

pink ribbon believe photo card @ cardstore.com

This is one of the cards from their Think Pink Collection.

“Every card features sweet pink accents and a special holiday message to make the card meaningful to family and friends. For this pink-themed collection, Cardstore.com and its artists donate 40% of card sales to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation®.”

Pink Top Gingerbread @ cardstore.com

I really liked this one from The Pink Collection, too.

And these are just some of the cards that I loved but decided not to use. Mostly because I couldn’t find just the right pictures for them.

Also because I really loved these three :

(a)

option 1

Dan and I love how classic and elegant this one looks.

(b)

option 2

We love how fresh and fun this one looks.

(c)

option 3

Similar design from the Think Pink Collection. I used a different picture of MM here because I’m still torn between the two.

Wanna help me decide? Which one of the three is your favorite?

    Option A! Love the classic-ness of the whole thing although option C speaks to me too w/ the whole breast cancer symbol on it.

    Thanks for stopping by first of all, as far as helping you with the pics. I love the pics in C, but I don’t think pink is a very Christmasy color. So, I would definitely say B would be my choice, but technically speaking take all three cuz your children are all gorgeous. Hell, as far as that goes send me some, and I’ll use them too! ~hehe~ Just beautiful. Have a great weekend.
