We're wishing you all kinds of J O Y, backwards and forwards, this year!
"Any way you spell it, JOY to the world!"
(Adorable picture, by the way -- good memories!)
Right side up or upside down. We bring you wishes from out of town (or anything else that works to rhyme with "down")
Backwards and forwards, we're wishing you Christmas J-O-Y !
Try: No matter how we spelled it, we wish you a joyful holiday season!
I was thinking along the lines of "backwards or forwards or inside out, we hope your Christmas is a joyful one!" And remember, "pobody's nerfect," lol!
Thanks for all the feedback and all the great ideas for our photo!
I do appreciate it!
Sandy
Realized I never posted the final card - hope you enjoy it!

I need a cute caption for our Christmas card this year. I have a cute picture of my son sitting with his elbows on his knees and his chin in his hands. It looks like he is pouting. I may add an additional picture of him smiling also. Any ideas?
By Brandi from MS
How about borrowing from the lyrics of the "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" song? Something along the lines of "You better not pout . . . Santa Claus is coming to town." You could feature the first words under the pouting picture, and the smiling picture over the second words.
"Just found out I'm on the naughty list!"
Naughty or Nice -- Santa's counting twice!
Put a red ring with slash - the universal "no" symbol - around it.
I'm trying to come up with a witty saying for our Christmas card. I have a very cute picture in his little construction hat while using his hammer. Not, very Christmas-y, but so cute. I'm currently pregnant and was trying to think of somehow working that in. I know there are a lot of witty people out there, please help.
By Milena Lewis
I take it you are talking about your son?
Santa is swamped ..he called in the specialist.
Is this a young toddler in the construction hat? How about ... I'm a one of Santa's elves- paying it forward.
Also guessing the little guy with the hammer is your son? How about Merry Christmas from ( you, your son, Dad, any other family members usually on your Christmas card )and "New Baby-Under Construction".
Is this your son you are talking about? How about.I want to help Santa build toys for the children of the world.
I am needing a caption/phrase for my daughter's Christmas card picture. She is 18 months old. I made a "fake" Santa with just his legs and boots sticking out from under the Christmas tree. I have 1 picture of her making a face in front of Santa and a 2nd picture where she has on a Santa hat with a grin and Santa in the background. My plan is to put it on the card as a before and after type shot. I need a caption that would go with these photos. Does anyone have any ideas?
Wishing you...Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice...
Wishing You...Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice...This Christmas.

I hope this doesn't ruin my chances next year!
Up on the housetop....Santa fell.
Have yourself a Sneaky little christmas
I hope you have a "BOOT"iful new year
Santa please bring those presents back to me
Lose something Santa?
Yes, Santa, The tree HAS been watered!
WOW. That tree must of been heavy!
Those are just some I can think of. Enjoy. If you decided to use one, let me know. Elvishere AT juno.com <smile>
OOOPS,(under the first picture) Looks like I get to be Santa this year! Toys for everybody!(under second picture)
I need a clever Christmas caption! I love this pic of my boys. I like funny, quirky, sayings, nothing too Hallmark-ish. Any ideas?
Thank you so much!
My 18-month old son would not cooperate for our holiday pictures, so I want to use the various pictures of my husband and I chasing him around the yard, trying to get him to sit with us, looking at the camera, etc. in a collage on a photo card. I need a clever greeting to go with it!
By Kelly D.
Run, run, run fast as you can! You can't catch me - I'm the gingerbread man! I believe this is from an old children's book called "The Gingerbread Man".
We're rushing around before Christmas.
Trying to catch the Christmas spirit.
Just the thought of Christmas has us too excited to sit still!
It's Christmas season! Run, run, run.
Now the fun has just begun!
____________(child's name) just wants to go, go ,go.
While Mom and Dad want to relax and enjoy some hot cocoa.
Couldn't escape it (outside of card)
Just had to wish you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year (inside of card
We took a picture with my 8 year old girl holding a large gift tag attached to my 5 year old girl (who is all wrapped up in ribbon) that says: "To: Santa From: Your Secret Admirer". My youngest has a priceless "mad" face because she is offended that big sis is trying to give her away. I can't think of a cute saying to go with the card though! Any ideas?
By J.R.
We took several family Christmas pictures and in every picture my husband, my 8 year old, and I are smiling, but also in every picture my 4 year old is making a silly face. I would love for someone to help me come up with a Christmas card saying to match my silly 4 year old. Thanks.
By Meridith
Hasn't learned what a smile is but he/she keeps trying.
Helping that Frown turn upside Down...and we will keep trying!
When you pick one, share with us? PBP
Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas!
Try as he/she might, little ___________ couldn't contain his/her excitement about Christmas!
We took a picture of my husband and I kissing and my two boys are giving an annoying look to the camera. We need a caption for the photo.
By Kathy
We vacationed at the beach and the kids were all buried in the sand. Any Christmas Caption ideas to go with the picture?
By Kris M.
Honest, Santa, we've been good.
Merry Christmas from Sandy Claus and the (your last name)
Warm (and sandy) Christmas Greetings!
Where Santa goes after delivering a very merry Christmas to you!
This is our idea of a White Christmas! The children are all tucked in the sand while visions of sugarplums dance in their heads!
I need some suggestions for a caption for our photo Christmas cards this year. Our picture is of me, my husband, and our two daughters (8 and 14) on the beach, jumping up and having excited expressions on our faces. My brother edited the photo to add Santa hats. I was thinking, "We just found out we're on the nice list" or "So excited that Santa's on his way", but those seem boring. Please help.
By Kelly B from Cleveland, OH
Santa texted us down south for directions... he's on his way!!
My personal thought is to use the lovely sounding original photo without the Santa hats with a caption like, "We are joyous for our gift of the real reason for this season!"
I have a photo of my husband and I at a wedding, but we are wearing Christmas colors. It looks like it would make a great pic for a Christmas card, but we're listening and looking serious. Any funny ideas? Help would be greatly appreciated!
