Connect with a Christmas Card - Tips, Printables and a Deal!

Christmas cards...one of the things that is still nice to get this time of year.  In the age of e-mail, Facebook, texting, social media, blogs...we don't have much old fashioned letter writing or communication.


So take time this season to connect with family and friends with a card or photo.

Here is a handy Christmas Card List template that I am using this year that makes it easy to get organized for this task.


This enables you to know exactly how many cards and stamps to order or purchase.  You also have the addresses in one place.  Perfect!

Speaking of ordering...here is a sweet deal for photo Christmas cards...


Click on this link and you should be able to get 50 photo cards for $5 through Staples!  You will purchase the Groupon - order your photo cards online using the Groupon code - and by the next day, you will have your photo cards ready to address and mail!


Why not do regular Christmas cards for someone?  A lady in our church organizes cards to send to the soldiers.  You could address a box of cards and give them out at a local nursing home to the residents.  I purchased boxes of beautiful cards for 75% off after Christmas last year.  You save money and you don't have to even go to the store to start working on them. :)


How about a Christmas letter instead of a card to family and friends?  Here is a great article with tips and ideas on how to write that perfect yearly letter.


So, get started today!  You still have plenty of time for this project for this Christmas season. :)

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...
