Young House Love » Our First House » Baby Announcement Christmas Card Idea

| By Sherry Petersik | December 24, 2009 | 69 Comments

Baby Announcement Christmas Card Idea

By now you’re all probably off with your family eating gingerbread and tearing into some presents but we just wanted to share the holiday card we whipped up for our loved ones (since you’re all on our virtual mailing list). We wish you guys a very happy and sweet holiday with the ones you love. And speaking of love, we adore every last one of you for dropping in to see what we’re up to over here at Casa Petersik. Your support and encouragement never fail to put smiles on our faces each and every day, and we’re full of gratitude for the amazing year we’ve been fortunate enough to share with all of you.

Christmas Card

So don’t forget to enjoy some eggnog for me (thanks to the bean it’s off limits this year) while you celebrate the best part of having a place to call home: sharing it with the ones you love. Here’s to many more adventures (and misadventures) in 2010!

Psst- Wanna see our favorite holiday card of all time? It’s actually the first one we made from ’07.

Update: You can check out all of our favorite holiday decor finds here – many of which are under $15!

    I love your Christmas cards! They have made me realise that I really should be a bit more creative on the Christmas card front and not use store brought. Next year I will try harder, I promise!

      Sarah F- Good eye! They’re actually just green glass candle holders that we already had hanging around in our sunroom (check them out in this post). We just temporarily moved them onto the mantel for a bit more color when it came time to snap our Christmas card. Hope it helps!

      Torey- Yeah we’re over the moon! We actually blogged about it about a week ago and still can’t even believe it. What a fantastic honor!

    I have been reading your blog for about the last 6 months and have throughly enjoyed it! Anyway, we have been packing away our holiday decoration and started wondering what to do with the holiday cards we’ve received. We sent out and received our first holiday cards this year and would like to do something special with them. Any ideas? Your blog was the first place I looked!

      You can save them for next season and display them under a glass coffee table, on a pretty holiday bulletin board lined with red ribbon, or even punch holes in the top of them and make ornaments out of them with ribbon or twine to hang ’em. Hope it helps!
