Show Us Your Christmas Cards!

Season's Greetings!

With the coming Christmas season, I'm sure most of us will be sending Christmas cards to friends and loved ones, and I thought it might be fun to share any creative samples The Rabble might be sending out this year!

Popular these days, are cards that incorporate photos, usually family shots with the spouse and kids. This year I ordered some photo cards to send out, primarily to newly reacquainted family I hadn't seen in 30 years (Mom's whole side of the family - we had a grand reunion last July.)

So to start the thread off, here's what I'll be sending out. I based this year's cards on the photo you see as my avatar. It's recent, I like the shot, and its kilted. ;)

And since I don't have postal addresses (or postage!) to send to all of you, please accept this as my Christmas greeting card to all of you!



Lets see how many can add their own cards to this thread between now and Christmas, to share with everyone! If you are sending photo cards this year, but cant scan or screen-capture an image of the actual card design, just post the photo you've selected for the card, and let's see some great pics!

Wishing you serenity and joy this season. Happy Holidays!

Sorry, to be a killjoy. I resist this with a passion every year, as Christmas is being forced earlier and earlier.

As far as I am concerned Advent does not start till the 2nd of December this year and that is when I will start to celebrate.

Hanukkah starts Dec. 8th this year, and I wanted to be sure my cards reached those who celebrate it in time. There's more than one holiday celebrated this season.

Guid on ye, Chas! Could do with a bit more Anglicanism in the world, eh wot. Wifey wants to get a Christmas tree this weekend and it's making me cringe... Can't watch TV either cause of all the bloody commercials. Ach, weel. Good thread nonetheless. I'll have to see if I can dig up my first kilted Christmas card (our photos for this year with Santa aren't ready yet...).

Merry Christmas from Olde New England. This is our card this year with my wife, who is Polish, and puts up with my kiltedness. My two lovely daughters: the oldest is a manager at the Westin Snowmass Resort in Aspen/Snowmass Colorado and the little one who is at the University of Connecticut and a member of the dance team there.

Happy holiday season to all from Pittsburgh, PA, USA!
We do resist the overwhelming Christmas celebration that starts before Halloween.
It's sad.
But... not that it's a full week into December, I feel justified to have just designed the card last night.
