Shutterfly Holiday Cards

This is a sponsored post. I am receiving $100 off my holiday cards from Shutterfly for blogging about their cards.

It's that time of year to start planning your holilday cards and any photo shoots to go along with them! As you know from past posts, I love Shutterfly holiday cards, and this year is no exception. They have some gorgeous designs to choose from for all of the winter holidays and more.

I've loved looking through their holiday photo cards Photo Christmas Cards  and have picked out a few designs as possible choices for our cards this year. These may not be the exact ones I go with, but they are a few of my current favorites. I tend to go with cards in traditional red/ green colors but with a more modern message. There really are some fabulous choices to pick from this year!

So, go check them out now and start planning for your holiday cards. Make sure you check out Shutterfly's special offers page here on your way to ordering. http://www.shutterfly.com/special-offers

Monday--Goals for the Week

Last week was crazy busy, so my main goal this week is to slow down! That may be easier said than done now that we're in soccer season and t-ball season.

--keep working on our master bathroom project

Professional

--keep exercising 2-3 days per week
--Silk HouseParty
--finish at least 5 scrapbook pages for our personal books

Inspiration Tuesday--Unless

We just watched The Lorax this past week during our spring break, and we were both inspired by the movie. I've always loved the story but feel it's really appropriate to focus on it this month with Arbor Day and Earth Day, as well as in our general lives. I urge you to find one way that this "unless" quote applies to your life and make a commitment.

Monday--Goals for the Week

Last week was our spring break, so things should be somewhat back to normal this week. Here are my goals for this week:
