Trevor and I have never sent Christmas cards since we've been married. I always intended to, but it always snuck up on me. So after my failure to once again send Christmas cards last year, I was pretty proud of myself with being so on top of it this year.
I actually ordered these cards back in October when I found out about some great discount codes to use at the Kodak Gallery that made these almost free. Luckily, my friend Gladys had snapped a great picture of us at the cabin over Labor Day, so I had a picture ready to go. I love how natural and happy we look in it.
I also got these super-cute matching stamps thanks to a great deal!
Thanks to a tip months ago from one of the money-saving blogs I follow, I found out that the kit to make these stamps was clearanced at Walgreens since the box still had a picture of a $0.42 stamp. The kit was clearanced for less than the price of 20 stamps and included a code to order 20 stamps from Stamps.com. So I bought a bunch of boxes and I had been waiting for a time to use them. Perfect for Christmas cards! I am curious if many people even noticed them though... Did you?!?
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. We sure did. I'm working on sorting through pictures and I'll post about it soon.

When we got the card, Matt said, "look, Gertie is on a stamp." At first I was a little confused, but then he showed me. I thought they were so cool! And I loved the picture.
I was SUPER excited about the stamp even more so than the fact I had taken the picture on the card! Seriously! I am a nerd like that. The card and stamp was very well done. I loved the pattern!
I am mad that I didn't notice the stamp! And so sorry too!
We noticed! I loved the picture, too. So cute!
