Please help me choose Cmas card pics! Please?!

I'm doing the JOY cards, obviously:)  So tell me...after doing a pic of each girl with her letter, should I also include a shot of all 3 of them together?  And if so, should it be the pic of them sitting down or the one standing?  I know Emmy looks a bit "deer in the headlights" in the sitting down picture, but I'm going to see if someone can do a head swap for me where she's smiling. So the actual pic will be decent...I just don't know if I should do the sitting down or standing one.

In case it matters, the text will say something like "JOY is spending Christmas with the ones you love" or something like that.  I'm not settled on text yet so that could change.

Yes, I know there are shadows.  I'll do my best to fix it b/c I'm not attempting another photo shoot!

  • I like the one of them standing...it's cute and you've already spelled "JOY" with their individual pictures. 

    Their outfits turned out cute! =)

  • OMG there is too much cuteness in this post! :)

    I love the pics of them individually, if you could swap out a pic of your middle daughter w/ her eyes open that would be my favorite option - so all 3 pics in across in a row.  The eyes closed are cute too :)

    If you couldnt photoshop some magic your pic of 3 of them together in 1 shot w/ the letters is great too. Maybe you could use the pic of them standing on the back of the card? (we used 3 pics on our card; front, inside and back b/c I am so indecisive!) good luck they turned out soooo cute!

  • I totally missed the first part of your post where you are already using the individaul pics! :) sorry

    In that case, I'd vote for the standing pic b/c the "joy" again would be redundant.

  • This is the only pic of her with her eyes open. I chose the one with her eyes closed b/c it really shows her personality...she's a little stinker and I thought it looked the most like her true self.

  • Those are cute!  You can't go wrong either!

  • So cute!!! I like the pic w/o the letters for the 4th pic.

    And your girls hair is so cute. DH is trying to convince me to cut DDs hair so it will have a "style" and I might just have to do it after seeing their cute 'dos.

  • OMG, your girls are FREAKIN' ADORABLE!!! I love all the individual pics and would chose the standing pic since you already spelled JOY out once. Too cute!

    Thanks!  Lydia told me she wanted her hair cut short and I hesitated but thought her stacked bob turned out so cute.  Here's a pic of the back.  She's growing it out again now so it's a little shaggy..I'm trying to talk her into keeping it short now!  Your DDs hair is beautiful though...I don't know if I'd cut it!

  • OMG (I am SCREAMING!)

    They are out of control cute/gorgeous/perfect!!

    I like the individual pics, then the one of them standing together.

    And now I think I need another girl...

    Hope you are doing well :)

    LOVE LOVE LOVE the 4th pic. How adorable are they all together! 

    Great pics!  No matter which pics you go with your card will be beautiful! 

    We did the Joy cards last year and wrote "Wishing you a holiday season filled with...   above the pictures of the kids holding the letters that spelled out JOY.  Then below I wrote "And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at His birth.  Luke 1:14 

    I wish now I would have put "Wishing you a Merry Christmas filled with...  instead.  Oh well. 

    Cant wait to see your finished card.  I need to get busy on ours.  I dont even have all our outfits.  I wanted to do a family pic but will probably only be doing the kids.  Dh and I stay so busy we never had time to go take a family pic.
