Christmas Greetings

December 19, 2007 By Marta Darby 5 Comments

Christmascard07We were all dressed up that day.  It was the day of Heather’s wedding. 

"Perfect Christmas card photo op!" (at least that’s what I thought. . .)

We had tons of pictures taken that day, all dressed up and shiny and smiling pretty, but this is my very favorite.

The one where Eric extends the camera with his left hand and we all try to squeeze together to fit in the frame.

And I know it’s not a postcard perfect portrait or anything. . .

. . . but it’s so "us."   =D


[Creative Notes:
I created this in Adobe Photoshop Elements using the Old Time Christmas Kit from Designer Digitals.  The typeface is Santa’s Sleigh from www.dafont.com. The squiggle under our names is the numbers from the typeface Splendid Ornamenty from www.myfonts.com.]

    We always take the best pictures that way. We try and have other people take it and we always look bad…not that you would ever look bad! 🙂 CJ is taking a nap and I am checking the blogs! Love you! (I’m wiped out!)
