My Christmas cards & my gorgeous boy

[Natsmummy]

Just wanted to share some of the photos I took of Nathaniel to use on our Christmas cards :xmas: – isn’t he beautiful?! (I certainly think so!!)

These are my two choices for our Christmas cards – which one do you think is better?

Hi Melissa!

He is just gorgeous!!!

I personally LOVE both of your cards... but maybe the second one a little more!

[shelle65]

Awww, he is just gorgeous! What a beautiful cheeky smile!

I think I like the first card better - a bit less detail to detract from your gorgeous little one!

[♥Heaven Sent♥]

Awww your son is so gorgeous, i too would like to know how you done it?

I do prefer the first one though not over the top just nice,there is a bit too much detail on the other one :)

Aww theyre so cute!
If you download adobe Photoshop Album Starter (free from the adobe website).. you can edit your photos and fix up the red eye. Makes them look so much better i found.. all of Jesse's eyes are red in his photos :)

ps i like the first card the best ;)

They're both great but I prefer the first one:thumbsup:

Thanks so much for all of your lovely comments so far! ‘The original duchess’ – what you wrote was just beautiful thank you so much! Both cards were made using Microsoft Digital Image 2006 which is just the photoshop type application that came with our computer. I've recently gotten into digital scrapbooking and made the second card using a template that I downloaded from a site called ShabbyPrincess.com. For the first one I just inserted our photos onto a blank template and added the text and some embellishments I'd also downloaded (can't remember where I found those ones though). If you want more info about digital scrapbooking I got into it after coming across a thread in the Craft section about a month ago.

Thanks I'm assuming that the program I'm using has that too - will just have to figure it out as I'm still relatively new to all this!

[Natsmummy]

Well I've fixed the red-eye as best I can, and am going with a card generally along the lines of the first one, but with a few changes made - here it is http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r10/natsmummy/Xmas%20card%20photos%202006/ChristmasCard3.jpg
Hope you like it! I'm going to go to a craft store and buy magnets to stick on the back. I thought a fridge magnet card might be something a bit different.

And if anyone else wants to comment on how beautiful my baby boy is, then please go right ahead because I love hearing it!!!
