I'm doing a Christmas photo card with my 3 boys in Santa hats. One picture is from 2006 and the other is a re-created picture from this year. What caption could I put? I want funny =)

I might put "Christmas Joy" or Christmas Blessings". I saw it on a shutterfly pamphlet that I got in the mail. They were cards with children on them.
Faith, Family, Friends is a good one, and such things.
You can do any of the Christmas Songs as titles also, and scripture related to Christmas are good too.
Blessings, Robyn

I am looking for a fun, cute, creative Christmas card picture. I have 3 girls 10, 6 and 3 . I have always done formal and want something different. Thank you.
Here are two websites that might give you some ideas.

Try dressing them up as "nutcrackers" or elves, etc. Or you could dress each of them up as Christmas trees.
Hope this helps.

A cute pic of them making Christmas cookies would be nice.
Last year I took my then 7 year old and 3 year old, myself and husband and used our thumbs--dipped into the black ink and put on card stock paper, added lines for antlers (brown) and used a black marker for eyes and red marker for the nose and made reindeer. They were a big hit for all our family members and friends!
Have them lay down in the floor with their heads pointed to the center, then stand in a chair above them and make the picture. You'll have 3 heads in a circle.
How about you put little aprons and/or chef hats on the girls and take a shot of them making Christmas cookies? Gingerbread people would look great! Good luck!
One of my clients last year brought their children in for Christmas cards wearing their Christmas pajamas. She didn't want to bother buying them new Christmas outfits, and I think it came out really cute.
We married on the beach in Hawaii last August, sweet and simple, no guests. We'd like to use a wedding photo for a homemade Christmas card, (some friends and family haven't seen any of our wedding photos). Help!

We always take a holiday photo at Christmas. Here is ours for this year. This is my husband and I who are almost 70 years young. We enclosed this with our Christmas cards and it says:
We have a tradition now of creating our own Christmas cards. This was our 2005 version and it was entitled. Jane was hoping for a quiet Christmas, WARNING! Be careful what you wish for.
The new gazebo at the end of our dock cried out for decoration this season.
Searching for ideas for Christmas this past year and not wanting to write a looong Christmas letter, I found this idea. I sat the kids in front of the tree, plopped Santa hats on their heads, added a bit of tape and VOILA, instant fun!
This was our 2006 card. The background was from Google images and Photo paint was used to place the faces.
