valentine cards.

December 2011 was not my month.  I usually send out Christmas cards, but I just didn't have it in me. I had looked up New Year cards, but then we found out we were actually having a baby...and the New Year card idea quickly seemed like more than I could take on.

At Savannah's school they do not do class parties, which means no Valentine cards are exchanged at school. Since Savannah still so desperately wants to give them, our new tradition was born.

Remember those cheesy boxes of Valentine cards you buy at the grocery store?  Well, after I received an email from a photographer friend offering to her past clients adorable Valentine cards, I knew I had to step up my game! I mean, I can't be sending out cheap Sponge Bob Valentine cards if I wanted to be taken seriously.

With the stress of the holidays behind us, we really enjoyed putting together our cards. We have come up with new people to send them to every day...so everyone will be getting them in "waves". Oh, and the lines at the post office are short, making this Mommy a happy one.

Have you thought about mixing it up, and sending out Valentine cards instead of the traditional Christmas? Or maybe just being an awesome person and doing both! :)

*Before ordering your cards off of Tiny Prints check measurements on the card you are ordering.  Some of the cards are the itty bitty ones...and I don't want you to be disappointed!

*Disclosure: Tiny Prints offered me free Valentine cards for posting, but all opinions are my own...and the Valentine cards that I have sent out already are not from Tiny Prints.
