Holiday Cards 2012

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

I just wanted to let everyone know the group has formed for the Holiday Cards 2012 exchange. This is my favorite thing of the Holiday season.  For those of you who do not know, go to the below group and add your name to the list along with your address.  Once the group reaches 50 the discussion is closed and a new group will form. Last year, I got on both groups. We will then get a list of the addresses which you can print out on labels and everyone on the list gets a Doodle card from you. In addition, you receive a Doodle card via mail from everyone on the list. The entire month of December, I loved going to my mailbox to see the newest cards. The cost of cards and stamps is worth every penny, in my opinion.

A big thanks to Rae who makes this happen.

Awwww :(  I'm so going to miss the fun this year!  But for those new people - you have GOT to sign up and join the fun!!!  I swear my mail lady thought I was sooooo popular getting cards, cards, cards every day.  Each and everyone was beautiful.  So sign up!!!!  I'll be back next year - this year with dd getting married  - my postage spending is spoken for - but next year I'll be back!!!

Jane, I will miss getting a card with sweet Rooney and Stuart, but I understand.

I got the invite from Doris, but I have not even started about holiday cards. Do you guys have them all ready?

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Jarka, If you sign up, you have until around 12/1/12 before the addresses are posted and I got cards last year all through December. Yes, my cards are done. It really is fun.

[Donna K & Quincy]

I don't have any done and haven't really thought about it yet, there is tons of time.

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Donna is right about the time and all you really need is one picture or two of your dogs and plug them into a card program at any local store or Shutterfly and they are done. Heck, you can even get regular holiday cards and put in a picture of your dogs and you are done.

[Jarka, Monty & Auggie]

I'm a bit of a perfectionist as far as Christmas cards are concerned. But it's good that you guys got me thinking about them early. I'm always late sending the cards to my family in Europe so perhaps this year I can make it on time.

Can us newbies see some from last year to get some ideas?

[Donna K & Quincy]

I don't know if you can see from this pic but here are some of the cards I recieved last year. If you click on the pic you can see it larger.

Thuy, This should be a big help. Thanks, Donna, for posting this picture. For some reason my picture is teeny tiny.

Thanks, Donna! This does help a lot! Those are some REALLY cute cards! I'm getting excited now. :)
