Tiny Prints

I'm trying to get back in the swing of blogging! I know I've mentioned some cool companies lately, and I'm back with another ... Tiny Prints.



I first heard of Tiny Prints when I was searching for wedding stationery. The quality of the cards is unmatchable and they frequently offer specials for free cards. (Like today! Order a Thanksgiving card for free by using code FREETHX11 at checkout until 11:59 pm (PST) on 11/16/11.)

After the entry period is over, they'll open up the contest to the entire Community to vote for their favorites and determine the winners! Hurry... the entry deadline has been extended to November 21st!

You can enter the Tiny Print Talent Search Contest via Facebook or on their website.

A New Kind of Boxed Wine

I had dinner with some girlfriends last week, and was in charge of bringing wine. I brought some Black Box wine ... not your average boxed wine! The wine is award winning - and delicious!



All of the girls liked it - we tried the Cabernet Sauvignon. It was very smooth, easy to drink, with a soft finish. Best part? On sale for $18, for the equivalent of 4 bottles. And since we didn't drink it all, it tastes good for up to a month after opening. Perfect when I want only a glass or two of wine!

I learned about Black Box from BzzAgent, and I'm so glad I did. It's nice to have a new, budget-friendly wine around.

53 More Days

Yes, it's true - only 53 more days until Christmas! Now I have to start my list of things to do in 7 1/2 weeks: pick up gifts, make holiday plans, send out cards ... the list goes on! Last year, I mentioned how awesome Shutterfly Christmas cards were ... and I'm back to say it again!

In addition to last year's Christmas cards, in the past few months, we've sent some wedding thank you notes and birthday cards out from Shutterfly, and I was super pleased with the quality. Professional cards at a reasonable price? Yes please!

I'm trying to convince Nick that everyone likes photo cards so we can send out some of amazing wedding photographs as cards this year. :)

Shutterfly has an amazing selection of cards, so many beautiful designs. I tend to like the whimsical, fun styles... here are a few of my favorite cards:









(Those last two cards are less than $1.00 each ... can you say bargain!?)

New this year is the option to add greetings to the back of the card ... can they make it any more easy?!

I'm also considering ordering calendars, too - hello, easy family Christmas gift!

Now, watch your mailbox to see which card I ended up choosing! :)
