Happy holidays from Charlie Brown and his annoying unidentifiable grown-up companions!
We came up with the Charlie Brown concept before Bowie was even born, funny enough. But he was too young last year to pull it off. We weren't even sure we'd have a bald, white baby. But low and behold... we did! It was on.
Except we didn't realize how challenging it would be to make a 14-month old pose, stay still and smile! Normally, Bowie is a total ham and we have no problem getting him to act like a trained monkey. Even with my parents dancing and making funny noises behind the camera, which normally does the trick, he was not having it. This is the ONLY good shot out of a gazillion before the meltdown. A pensive finger-biting Charlie Brown is better than no Charlie Brown!
As for execution, Tiny Prints came to our rescue yet again. They have gobs of beautiful designs to choose from - but this year, we chose to upload our own with custom envelopes and matching striped liners. The recipient address printing made the entire process a piece of cake. And the giant personalized postage stamp of Bowie's sweet smile just had to be done. Everything arrived to our house a couple of days after I placed the order and amazingly, I got them out to friends and family two whole weeks before Christmas. That's a first!
Are you sending out cards this year? If you're still thinking about it... you've still got time!
