Anyone can have an epiphany...
I want an *Epiphanie*! :)
An Epiphanie camera bag, that is! These gorgeous bags look like they hold EVERYTHING, and they are stylish (goodbye, ugly black scratchy bag). ColorInc has teamed up with Epiphanie to give one of these bags away to one lucky winner - go check it out!

Card me!
I admit it, I'm a freak for cards. I can happily spend an hour in the cardstore searching for the perfect card or boxed set - at least, I could before I had two kids. Now I'm lucky if I get fifteen seconds to grab the first thing that catches my eye before someone needs a drink, a pacifier, a time out or (more frequently) to go potty. In recent years, I've bought our Christmas cards from our local warehouse store - it was quick, it was easy, and I'd be going there anyway so no special trip required. The quality was OK, the selection was OK, but nothing to write home about.
This year, I tossed around the idea of making cards - a beautiful pipe dream, but again with two kids, it's probably not going to happen. We're not members of the warehouse store anymore. I started thinking about ordering cards online and then I happened upon an offer from Shutterfly - 50 free holiday cards for bloggers! (If you follow me on Facebook, you already know since I statused it earlier.) I've drooled over their photo books for years, and was anxious to see what their card selection was like, so I hopped on over and...
O.M.G. The selection is fabulous! They've got classic holiday cards, contemporary/modern holiday cards, nondenominational holiday cards, Christian Christmas cards - they've even got holiday cards that tell a story *and* thank you cards for all those fabulous gifts under the tree!
The colors are luscious - deep black, chocolate brown, hollyberry red and mistletoe green, pink and blue and in-between. How many photos to include? One photo? Two? Five? Do I want a 4x8 card? A 5x5? Glossy finish, matte or stationery? Where to start? And then, I spotted a card that ordinarily I might miss - and I couldn't look away.
Seriously - check it out. The Elegant Pearl Christmas Card. White is the perfect backdrop for color photos or black and white, for those night shots of the kids meeting Santa's train or close ups of the lighted Christmas tree. The script greeting is a great little pop of color that registers without overwhelming. It's classic and timeless and fabulous. I'm also debating With Love Chartreuse (depending on what shots I can get - i.e., how cooperative the kids are) - it's bright and cheery and packed with photo punch, plus it's a folding card so there's room on the inside for more photos and holiday wishes. Love it!
