If you haven't already sent out your Christmas cards... you probably should get on it!! We have already sent out the stock photo cards! Being new parents we are a little overzealous.... well this blog is a first hand account of me being a "crazy mommy." If I didn't have a child, I would probably not be learning to sew, making personalized gifts or decorating my house for any holiday..... just being honest :)
Lucky for you I am a mommy!! So you get to see how I made the Reindeer Cards.
First you will need one of these....
So you can do this with hands or feet (I think it would be really cute if you could get your puppy's paw print!!). We chose feet because when your child is asleep its easier to get his foot prints.
1. Stamp hand print/footprint/paw print on the card
2. Use whatever you have on hand to decorate your card (markers, paper, glue, glitter, sharpies)
3. Put your message on the card- We used some of these for our nieces and nephew's Christmas money but made some of them thank you cards for Christmas gifts. {Ashley's blog yesterday suggested taking Christmas cards to the nursing home, so if you are in the giving back spirit make some extra and try to do that this Sunday. If you haven't read her post from yesterday you should check it out!!}
4. We made all of our reindeer different and unique!!
These fun personalized cards were so fun to make and it shows your family that you put thought and care into something for them.
