This year I’ve not partnered with any company to do holiday cards. This means that for the first time in a long time I’m searching various sites, trying to figure out what I want to do without spending the equivalent of a car payment for cards. However, my “mail on December 1” rule still stands, so I need to order soon and I need your help.

Shutterfly – the old standard. I’ve used them in the past and love their stuff (Bonus – there’s a Living Social deal to save $). Here are 2 I like:

Tiny Prints – the gold standard in holiday cards, and always my favorite option. Their paper is fantastic, their new trim options are so cool, the quality is outstanding… the prices are high (womp womp). But! There are sales and I recently got a TP discount code when I made a purchase a Hanna Andersson so, I can maybe swing it. Here are 2 TP designs that make me swoon:

(joyful everything)

Vistaprint – yes, the are more known for business cards and coffee mugs but their card quality has come a long way in the last few years. I’ve used them for other custom cards, but not for holiday cards. (Bonus – a there is a groupon for them right now). Here is what I’m liking from them:

Thoughts? Favorites? Would it be weird if I got 2-3 different cards – it’s so hard to choose just one! Other places I should look for cute holiday card options?
