I feel like I had a very productive weekend, and that I was minimally active. Can you be both? I didn't even touch the office :( but I finished addressing my Christmas cards and signed all of them.

I also decided that I would save the money from doing one of the photo sites card layouts and do my own {more of that later}. Most of Saturday I converted all of my 2010 photos over to Shutterfly's photo book as they are having a $10 credit on $50+ orders and free shipping on $30+ orders. By taking the extra time I am saving $43!
For the Christmas photo cards I took the photo that I was going to use and edited it in Photoshop. There are many sites that offer digital scrapbook paper. I went for the freebie paper and added it as a banner on the bottom of my picture. Then I added text and a green banner from Photoshop to tie in with the actual Christmas cards I am sending out. I uploaded this image as a 4x6 to Picnik. Instead of using one of their standard photo cards I just selected prints in a matte finish. I was even able to add our name as a watermark on the back of the print. Where I spent $75 on photo cards last year, I am spending only $7.50. I'm a little upset that I didn't do this last year!
