with every christmas card I write...

Merry Christmas friends! This Holiday season has taken us by storm but thankfully I was on top of my Christmas card game this year and was able to order our cards at the end of November and got some great promo codes and discounts including one for free address labels that I personalized with our girl, Rhiley. 

I went with Shutterfly again this year (here's our cards from last year) because I really liked their cute designs this year and I know I can always scrounge up a good deal by combining multiple promo codes. For packaging, I added some red & white baker's twine to the middle even though it is already printed on the card, used our personalized Rhiley inspired address labels, and the leftover buffalo plaid washi tape from my Simple Washi Tape Clothespin Christmas Card Display. 

Overall, I love how they turned out! On the front, I used a picture from our Valentine's Day pictures last year and on the back, I gave a brief update on our 2014 year. 

Hope this Christmas Card finds you all well! I will be back later in the week with a little roundup of some of my Holiday DIYs from this year! 

Peace,

Simple Washi Tape Clothespin Christmas Card Display

Hey y'all! I know it's been a while since I posted! I cannot believe it's already time for the Holidays already, can you?? It feels like we just put the Christmas decorations away and yet here we are bring them out little by little. Don't worry, we aren't getting our tree until after Thanksgiving but with the colder weather it is kind of tempting to start decorating amiright? 

Today, I've got a really easy way to display Christmas Cards this season. Literally, it cost me nothing except the washi tape that I got for 40% off at Michael's. 

I picked some awesome buffalo plaid washi tape that I think looks festive without screaming "we love Christmas!" The white ribbon I used was some I already had so basically this project was free which is always a bonus. I taped and trimmed the washi tape onto some clothespins and just like that, we had a way to display the Christmas cards we get from friends & family onto our Chalkboard wall. 

In other news, Shutterfly pinned our Christmas Card from last year here! I am really excited about this! I would appreciate it if you would LIKE & Pin it. Thanks ahead of time! 

If your curious, here are our Christmas cards and Christmas Home Tour from last year. I'll be sharing this year's Christmas card after Thanksgiving. 

 Peace,

Oh Christmas Card, Oh Christmas Card Falalalala or Something Like That.

Merry Christmas from the Fitz's!! 

I love our Christmas Cards this year! Last year I skimped on getting any printed in hopes that this year would make up for it with wedding pics out the yin yang to use. Thankfully, I was right and they turned out super cute! I really love the picture of Rhiley with our vintage aluminum Christmas tree from last year (her first Christmas). She was so curious (and still is)! 

I got ours printed by Shutterfly. Just make sure you try and combine all the offers you can. I got a set of address labels for free in addition just by checking my sources first!

I'll be recapping our Thanksgiving in KY and sharing our Holiday Home Tour and Christmas decorations soon! 

Peace,
