edited to add:  A number of you have written to say that although you plan on using my cards this year, you don’t want to enter to win one because you want to buy one and support us!  That’s very sweet -  please, go ahead and enter if you want.  We’re honored, though, and thank you.

Also, my giveaway is also in conjunction with this larger etsy giveaway.  Feel free to browse these other stores and enter at her site!  I’ve had so much fun exploring other people’s stores at etsy.

So I was going to start my giveaway contest Saturday (tomorrow) morning, but I kinda forgot that I’m going to another country then. I’ll only be gone one day, and we’ll be back home by 7 pm. or so, but still… you know what it’s like when you can’t host your contest because you’re out of the country.

I know, excuses, excuses.

Anyhoo, I’m just going to go ahead and post the contest, and if you’re reading this on Friday instead of Saturday, consider yourself an early bird.

I’m giving away ONE free Christmas photocard design from my shop! All you have to do is go to my shop, browse my designs, and tell me which one is your favorite (don’t worry, you can change your mind if you win). Post your answer in the comments section – don’t forget to enter your e-mail address, so I can contact you if you win – and you’ll be entered! The contest is open until Monday, November 19 at 12 p.m. EST. After that, I’ll use this nifty random number generator to pick a winner.

Here’s the nutshell version of how my shop works: you purchase your favorite photocard design, then through etsy, you e-mail me your family photo(s) and any minor changes you want done to the photocard (if any). I then send you a proof, and you let me know if there are any edits to be made. I’ll send you a final, high-resolution digital jpeg file of your photocard, where you can either print your photocards at home, or you can take them to a photo printing center. Walla!

FYI… Right now, it looks as if Walmart‘s prints start at $.12 each, Costco‘s start at $.17 each, and CVS‘s are $.19 each, with 10 free prints when you sign up online. Those seem to be the best deals I’ve found so far.

Happy browsing!
