50 cards at SHUTTERFLY, mom-bloggers!

Attention all "moms-who-wait-til-the-last-minute-to-send-out-Christmas-cards"!
Shutterfly is offering 50 photo cards for free! This offer is good until 12/31/10, but hopefully, you'll get them out before then! (I'm still working on mine!)
They have over 800 designs available, and all of them are super-cute!
They have designs ranging from trees, to snowflakes, to plain and simple single-picture cards. You can also choose a photo card or a folded card.
I will also say that Shutterfly processes and ships very quickly, and I have always been very pleased with what I've received from them. And deals like this promotion are just too good to pass up, especially with everyone trying to save a buck or two in this economy!
A few of my favorites are:

I love getting Christmas cards in the mail that have tons of pictures from throughout the year, especially from people i don't see often! So print up an extra card for me and send it to me! I'll add you to the "Christmas Card String" above my mantle!

The MOPS yardsale was AMAZING!!!!

Dudes, the yard sale was AWESOME! from the delicious pumpkin and chocolate rolls, to freezing our tatas off, to seeing aubrey in her bathrobe at 7 am... AWESOME. Many thanks to all the hardworking mamas out there that stayed up until 1 am sorting through everyone's junk, to the early risers selling to the crazies that showed up at the crack of dawn, to the cleanup crew... WELL DONE, LADIES! We raised $565.26 (not including the MOPS scavengers that took home loot and haven't paid yet, like me! ha ha ha)!!!!!!!!!!! We have a lot to be thankful for! God has really blessed us with these funds for MOPS this year! Thanks so much to all who participated in making this a HUGE success! YAY MOPS!
