UPDATE: The winner of this giveaway is #2, Chrysa!

There was a time when trying to get a decent Christmas picture of three boys at the same time was too much for this mommy to handle. I resigned myself to the fact that someone would be looking away, pinching someone else or picking their nose.

But now with the ability to leverage cell phone and video game privileges, its not half bad.

Oh, there might be a few to sift through to find that perfect shot…

But eventually there will be a few that work.

Once you recover from the circus that is taking your holiday pictures, the rest is a breeze with Snapfish. They have made the process of selecting, designing and ordering your holiday cards a snap. You simply browse thousands of designs, upload your images (or use any from your previously uploaded albums), write your greeting and checkout. The whole process took me 16 minutes from start to finish to come up with the card above. And if you need help, Snapfish is there with Live Chat and an excellent tutorial.

And this year, I am thrilled (…thrilled…) to get to offer my own designs to the Snapfish community. Here are a couple of the holiday designs in my Snapfish shop…

As always, Snapfish has some great insitives and promotional goodness for you to take advantage of…
