2015 Christmas Card Templates

Hi guys!  Every year we get fewer and fewer holiday cards and newsletters in the mail.  It’s a bummer.  I mean, I get it.  We’re all on social media.  We see everything as it happens these days so the old family newsletter seems unnecessary.  But there’s just something so nice about getting happy mail from old friends in December.  I considered – briefly – not sending a card out this year, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it.  It’s one of my favorite parts of Christmas.  As always, I’m sharing the blank template with y’all.  Send some happy mail to your friends and family this year!!  Send some to me – I’d love it!  

Here’s the front side of our card:

And the back side:

We thought it might be fun to do a "Two Truths and a Lie" game in lieu of a traditional newsletter on the back this year. It's fun to switch it up and keep our family and friends guessing!

I created templates in four different color schemes -- red, black and gray with red berries, and gray with white berries {the one I used for our card above}.  
 

The back side comes in gray or black.
 

The templates are available to download for your personal use here.  

If you're looking for a different style, this was our 2014 Hashtag Holiday Card:

It is available to download for personal use as well.   I wrote a tutorial about how to add the photos to it at Craftaholics Anonymous, where I shared the templates last year. I'm working on a detailed tutorial about how to add text to an image in Gimp that should be helpful as well!

If you are interested in having me add your photo and information to either of these templates for you, contact me via email {[email protected]} or message me on Facebook.  I typically charge $15, unless you want some major customization which might cost a little more.

Happy Holidays!
