Works for me: Photo Greeting Cards!!
We travel quite a bit as church-planting missionaries with e3 partners. Most of our work over the past year has been in central/east Africa. Last summer, my husband and I wanted to send out personalized thank-you cards to all of our supporters. We gathered a few simple materials I already had on hand: dymo label maker (the classic, hand-held model), photo corners (scrapbooking item), off-white card stock (from office supply store). Then I found a couple of cool photos taken on a 1-day safari my husband went on while in Kenya. We printed the photos on 4x6 glossy photo paper. Then I folded the card stock in half, put 4 photo corners on the front, inserted a photo, then crunched out a dymo label message and placed it on the inside of the card. Wrote a personal greeting/thank you. Then my husband addressed plain white envelopes, stuffed in the cards and dropped them off at the post office. So easy. Relatively inexpensive. Pictures were beautiful - frameable really!!
This lion looks a little bit battle-weary!
I thought this was a pretty cool picture.
So beautiful. One of my favorites. Although I'm sure the water and shore smell pretty bad.
