Will you be making your own Christmas Cards this year?

No I wish I had that kind of time but I don't.

This will be my fourth year sending out about 60 cards.  I only do the Anna Griffin card kits...they are gorgeous and so easy.  People love getting them.  You can only find them on hsn.

No. I would love to, but in order to really enjoy it I would need to start very, very early. As in I already should be doing it.

It's one of those things I put on the "When my kids are grown" list.

It would be nice, but it's not important enough to me to rearrange my current priority list for my "me" time.

Yes! I have a few ideas but haven't narrowed it down yet - I will probably end up doing a variety, if I start early I'll be able to get them done. Pinterest has ruined me!

I do. I'm actually pinteresting holiday cards as I go to a crop next weekend. I usually crop again in October and try to complete them then. I only do about 20-25 so it's not that big of a deal. I'm leaning toward this one this year:Here

Yes. I'm a Heritage Makers distributor so I'll use one of our templates and will do them end of Nov/first of Dec. I customize them for my clients, so they get first dibs at my time

I make a dozen or so unique ones that get hand delivered and 80-100 mass produced that are mailed. I cut back a few years ago, but we got a few complaints which made me laugh because none of the complainers were sending out cards. The design will include a photo and family update and I start thinking about it in Oct and want them in the mail by the end of Thanksgiving weekend. They honestly only take a few nights to put together (usually in front of the TV) and we get great feedback on them. Our family letter is a little nontraditional - one year it was a Haiku for each of us

No, but I will order photo cards.

For the past several years, I've just done a 1 page photo sheet of various photos throughout the year with little to no commentary other than maybe a location or a date. People seem to like it because it gives a good review of our year but isn't like a braggy Christmas letter. I've been putting them inside purchased cards the last few years, but I might make cards this year since I just got a Silhouette and it's a good excuse to play with it.

40 (I make 30 for myself and ten for my mom). I don't mind if a recipient tosses their card, I only put an amazing amount of effort on two cards my mom sends. Those two cards have been saved and framed the last five years, then brought out at Christmas.

I usually do. I need to start thinking of ideas and get started on them earlier this year. I already know I will be working overtime in December because my only co-worker is going to have knee replacement surgery. I usually start them in October so I may need to push that up a couple of weeks.

I do. I usually make about 25 and start in October.

Bethany1023, those cards are adorable!  I'm sure the recipients will love them.   

I always say that I'm going to make handmade cards "next Christmas," but I never seem to sit down and actually DO them.  So, I always send out store-bought cards, instead.  I enjoy making handmade gifts, though, and I usually spend a lot of time working on those items.  I'm preparing to start sewing some Christmas gifts soon, because I'd rather not be stressing about getting everything finished and mailed, come December!

I did for years but I don't really send many cards anymore.
