Each year I do the traditional card with Santa and all of us. But this year I wanted to do something fun! I so wanted to do the card that has me, Rick and the boys dressed up like the characters from Christmas Story. BUT with little time with me leaving for Boston and trying to talk Rick into dressing up in a sweater vest and holding a leg lamp was not in my future. So I searched Pinterest for ideas and found this funny one for "Silent Night". You who know me know I have 2 VERY loud (but lovable) boys. This was perfect, forgive me on not giving credit to who created I couldn't find the source, if you know let me know and I'll add a link to them.
What you Need:
Christmas PJ's
Christmas Lights (1 box)
Colorful or Seasonal Duct Tape (2 Rolls - 1 of each type)
Christmas backdrop is helpful
Wrap the hands (lightly NOT tight) with duct tap and add a piece to the mouth. I gently put it on so it didn't hurt when it came off. I went to my mom's since she had her decorations all up and it looked picture perfect. I took a few and then went to PicMonkey a great FREE site to add the wording. I then went to Walmart and found a 5x7 I could add my photo to. The saying below was a letter to Santa Perfect!
My Photo with just wording.
NO kids hurt in the making, they could talk the whole time believe me they NEVER stop. It was a fun picture, I hope I get some laughs and no nasty grams over it.
Do you do funny cards?
