Holiday Cards from Shutterfly

Today we spent the day decorating our house for Christmas! Its a little early for my usual routine, I usually decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving like we did as kids; however, next weekend is going to be busy and we'll have family over so I decided to go ahead and decorate now. I think houses always look best during the holidays so what's an extra week of Christmas goodness in the house?!
Something that I've started doing the past couple of years is keeping Christmas cards that friends and family send us. I just love getting Christmas cards in the mail and appreciate the effort that people go through to send us cards so I think its worth keeping and displaying. Well, for one reason or another, we've never sent out Christmas cards of our own so this year I'm determined to fix that!
A few weeks ago I came across an offer that Shutterfly is doing to get 50 free Holiday Cards. How great is that?! I get to finally send out cards and its free! I have used Shutterfly in the past and they are great. Kate's birthday invitations were ordered through the site and I think they turned out great. I also appreciated the fact that the invitations were shipped the day after I ordered them. Everything was completely customized yet they were able to get it out the next day, it was impressive. Since I have had such great experiences with them (and thanks to their great offer) I have decided to do my holiday card shopping through them. Now for the hard part: picking which cute design to use. Here's a few choices, maybe you can help me choose!
*Option 1: Sweet & Retro- I like the whimsical look and it kind of reminds me of the 50s & 60s era for some reason and I love that era!

*Option 2: Snowing Joy- this one is just fun & a little childlike which is still appropriate for little Kate.

*Option 3: Christmas 2010 Card- this one is simple & classic & actually says Merry Christmas!

There are still a ton that I like but this was as much as I could get done with asking the husband for his opinion.
I'm also loving the idea of photo gifts. I can never have to many pictures of my little one so I hope my family feels the same! I think certain coffee addicts in my family would appreciate a mug with sweet Kate's picture on it like this: http://www.shutterfly.com/photo-gifts/photo-mugs/custom-mug

Side note: this is the invitation that we used for Kate's birthday. So sweet.

Anyway, I love Shutterfly and I'm really excited about the special they are offering. They are always running great specials and giving away freebies. As a girl who loves a sale, I love it & I love Shutterfly!
