from How to Have A Romantic Holiday

Why rely on store-bought cards when you can make your own personalized cards that reflect your life together? With your computer and

a little pre-planning, the two of you can make your own holiday cards that will not only be a fun project but a fun way to remember your year together.

Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

Package of pre-folded card stock (glossy or matte) *
Several digitized photos**
Color printer

*Unfolded card stock will also work if you’re on a budget
** You can use digital photos or have your photos digitized on a scanner. If you don’t have a scanner, you can have your photos scanned at a local copy store for about $1.

Your holiday cards can reflect your personality as well as the activities you’ve enjoyed over the year. A picture of the two of you on vacation, surrounded by a holiday border added by your computer, can be a fun alternative to a traditional holiday card. Write a poem about your year and share it with your friends. Include a favorite quote. The choice is all your own.
