Few will admit it, but we all know there is the secret competition that begins right around Thanksgiving and keeps going until New Year’s. It’s bigger than the best decorated house, bigger than the most extravagant tree contest… it’s the who has THE BEST HOLIDAY greeting card of the year contest! Really, it is. We all want our family’s card to be the one that makes our friends ooh and ahh over the smiling faces of our children, marvel at the creative design, and take note of the amazing things we did all year.

From formal to funky, thrifty to lavish, simple to just creative, they have it all.
