I know we barely have back-to-school to do lists behind us, but I’m here with a little public service announcement: It’s time to start thinking about and planning for holiday card season!

It seems early but honestly, it isn’t. There are only — get ready for this — 11 weekends until December rolls around. Those weekends are going to fly by, especially when you need to coordinate family schedules to squeeze in time for photos, select photos, order photos, shop for holiday cards, customize cards and then order, address and mail ‘em! (Wow I made this process sound fun, didn’t I?) Bottom line is that it wouldn’t hurt to get a jump start on your holiday cards.

Many of you know that I’ve been working with Tiny Prints for the past few years and many of my clients have used – and loved! – the end result. I can’t say enough good (fabulous! stellar! awesome! fantastic!) things about the company, its products and customer service. What I will do instead is recommend that all of you go check out their site and take a look at its new line of holiday cards. Click here for the newly launched line: Tiny Prints 2011 collection

For those of you with photos ready to go, take advantage of a great deal (20% off $99 or 25% off $199) if you order your cards before 9/20/2011. Use CODE: HOLIDAY11

And while you’re card shopping, pay attention to some of the images. You might just recognize some familiar faces throughout the collection. (And if you work with me, you never know … your lovely faces may show up in next year’s holiday collection, too! )

This clever little one cracks me up:

The photo came from this fun client photo session last year.

Happy Shopping!
