Business Card Giveaway

You have the site. If you are like me, you’ve defined a custom URL and site title. You even have a tag line to help narrow what your blog about is all about for the person who takes a quick glance. As a step further, you’ve even taken the time to make it reflect YOU, from the header to the sidebars, font and colors everything about your blog conveys exactly what you’ve been trying to say. You also have Twitter and Facebook which helps you spread the word. But what about the people around you? How to spread the word when you meet someone and they ask you about your blog? How do you keep your blog in their mind?

A business card! Other business’ do it, why on earth shouldn’t you?

Its been making the rounds, the idea of a blog business card. A business card can be amazing for your blog! I mean, how many times have thought to yourself “I’d love to get the word out about my blog, but I just don’t know how!” Well a business card could be the perfect solution. From handing it out when you meet someone, to dropping it off in the little bowls or pinning it up at stores where people might be interested this might be the perfect solution for you.

Save on Your Christmas Budget

I know it sounds crazy to think about it, but the time to order holiday cards is almost here! Luckily Shutterfly is here to help us all.

How? By crossing off Christmas cards on our “To-Do” list and helping us do it FOR FREE! That’s right, Free y’all.

I have to admit I love Shutterfly.  They have the best card collection around. I have used them to make a wedding gift for Alex, anniversary gifts, and print many MANY photos so that we can enjoy our memories outside of a thumb drive. However, as per usual they have surpassed my expectations for the holiday collection.

I thought about doing a stationary card, because a personal note is always welcome during the holidays. Before I quickly realized that for us, the photo cards are the best bet, because I love adding that personal touch of a photo from our year. (Plus it helps family keep track of our aging faces :-p!)

I really love the vintage style cards as it suits our rustic, country ways. (And our cowboy boots)

Clearly not Alex and I

But then again there is something magical about this card. It has to do with the squirrels. And the family crest. We’re the nuts around here!

Not our Boys – Our's are Furrier.

But then again, there is something so wonderfully classic about a good ol’ fashioned card. Simplistic, yes, but also beautiful.
