Christmas Card Fun


My dear friend Leslie, asked me to do this customized card for her, portraying them in front of a little street in Paris.

I got this idea from my brothers killer wedding invite from Bryan Niven. It in no way compares to his stuff, but this is my version that probably took 100 less hours to make and was $800 cheaper. The hardest part was getting Calvin to sit for the picture, since he wanted nothing to do with "Santa Claus," even though we tried to show him it was actually Daddy. We got one shot out of 147. All the rest are of him climbing off Will's lap. My sister helped me with my hair, using a video tutorial of 50's hairstyles from You Tube and I'm wearing a bridesmaid dress my mom wore in high school, it's so nice that she saves everything! Then a little photoshopping and viola!
