Every year we scramble to select a few photos and assemble a Smith Family Christmas card that recaps the entire year. After coming to the realization that our year could not be summed up in a single photo, the idea of creating a digital Christmas card was born! Although I admit that this idea is not entirely original, I do take credit for utilizing it as an alternative to the traditional holiday salutation.
We had a lot of fun picking out photos to illustrate all of the amazing things that happened to us over the course of the year and seeing the final product, which we can watch over the years. Perhaps the best part of sending a digital card via email, Facebook, Vimeo, and YouTube is the money we saved on printing and postage. We found that each Christmas card we sent was costing us about $1.25 after all the expenses of printing, stationary, and postage. With all those savings we have extra cash for stocking stuffers :)
The digital Christmas card has now been established as a Smith Family tradition that all of our friends and family members will look forward to each year.
Season's Greetings from the Smiths!
