Oh, what might have been? Remember when I told you how our family Christmas cards turned out? Sweetie went to pick them up today and I'm sort of afraid to go home and see the actual greeting we'll be sending to people; having been there live, I'm pretty sure this Christmas card is not going to engender any warm holiday memories for the people that receive it.
And it turns out we could have done a lot better, and also helped do some good -- by making Personalized Christmas Cards through "The Gallery Collection."
You might have heard of "The Gallery Collection," at www.gallerycollection.com; they're the company that just donated 800 cards to the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center as a part of the "Show Me A Smile" Greeting Card Gift Giving Program; that's a protgram that helps patients in children's hospitals; what better way to cheer people up and remember what Christmas is all about than to give to kids who are so sick they have to stay in a hospital? I get a lump in my throat just thinking about it.
And The Gallery Collection has some great cards to give -- foil, embossed, personalized, die-cut cards, photo cards, and more; you can personalize them, make business Christmas cards to send to your clients and drum up business for next year, or, in our case, make a card that DOESN'T feature one kid lunging away from the rest of the group while The Boy falls asleep and Mr Bunches scowls.
In all seriousness, I think it's a great thing they did, donating those cards, and I like to recognize companies that do great things and reward them. So go there and get your Christmas cards ordered today, to send out soon (it's almost November, after all) and hopefully, the great cards you send will wipe away the memories of the cards that I send.
