It's Not Too Late...For a Giveaway!

Have you procrastinated when it comes to Christmas cards? Do you always? I do! I'm picking up our "proofs" at Costco today to see how they came out. Hubby wanted me to create a "Charlie Brown Christmas" style card, and I wanted to create one that was more "subtle", and a little more "sweet yet elegant".

Here's what I came up with...now to decide...I will probably give in to hubby, because he usually goes with whatever I want...I want to return the favor.

And here are more examples of cards I've created.

The great thing about our photo greeting cards, is how easy they are for YOU!

1. Purchase the desired design.

2. Email me a high resolution photo (300dpi or higher for best results).

3. I'll send you a proof.

4. Once your order is completed, you can "test print" one photo, to make sure it comes out the way you wanted. Then once, you're satisfied, order the rest.

We recommend that you use the "luster" finish when ordering, as it will have a much nicer look.

They are for sale at Rio Oso Designs and Photo Greetings, both on Etsy.

In fact, I'm going to have a giveaway right now. One blessed reader will win their choice of photo greeting card design from either our Photo Greetings shop or our Rio Oso Designs shop.

We offer more than just Christmas Photo Greeting Cards! We also offer Birth or Adoption Announcements, "Save the Date" Announcements, Birthday Invitations, Shower Invitations, Graduation Photo Announcements, "In Loving Memory" Photo Cards, and whatever else you can think of! We do custom orders!

How to enter: Simply visit either shop, then come back here and let us know which is your favorite Photo Greeting Card Design. Please make sure that you have a valid email address available for me, either in the comment, or attached to your blog account.

For an extra entry, please blog about this giveaway, and leave a separate comment along with the link to your blog post.

For another extra entry, please Tweet about this giveaway, and use "@rioosodesigns" when you comment/Tweet. Please leave a separate comment letting us know you've done this.

Deadline to enter: Thursday, December 18th at Midnight PST. Giveaway is open worldwide.

As an added bonus, if you purchase any photo greeting card design from either of our shops, and you mention "The Downtown Boutique", you will receive 20% off of your premade design; good through December 31st.

Holiday Photo Contest

It's almost Christmastime, and I am working feverishly on some photo greeting cards to put in my Etsy shop, Rio Oso Designs. But there's something that I need...PHOTOS! I am looking for some GREAT photos that you will give me permission to use in my designs. If you have portrait studio photos or candid photos that you think would be perfect for holiday photo greeting cards, I want to see them. By the way, by entering this contest, you are giving me permission to use your family photos.

What's the prize? If your photo or photos are chosen, you will get to choose your very own photo greeting card design (holiday or non-holiday) from my Rio Oso Designs shop. When you choose a photo greeting card design from Rio Oso Designs, you can be assured of a high quality design, that you will be able to take to wherever you print your photos (Walmart, Costco, Target, etc.), and have them print as many or as few photo greeting cards as you need!

So email me your photos! You may also choose to post a comment with a link to your photo hosting site, such as Photobucket, Picasa, etc. I will post the winning photos at a later date.

This contest is ongoing, and is open worldwide.

Have a great day!
