This would be a fantastic idea for a holiday card to faraway relatives any year, but particularly in this year of COVID-19, we plan to send a copy even to relatives who live close by.

To make the card, all you need is to capture your kids on camera blowing a kiss. It was so cute to coach Veronika through this.

Travis happily demonstrated, and then I had the pictures printed at the drugstore and we were ready to design the rest of the card! Veronika loved seeing the prints of herself and big brother.

I folded red construction paper in half and we used glue sticks to attach the photos.

While Veronika happily scribbled on extra scrap paper, I wrote the following message in each card:

We can’t see you this Christmas

but we’re blowing you kisses

And sending you wishes.

Veronika helped add a few puffy Christmas stickers on the cover of each to complete the project.

For a slightly different look, you can have the words printed directly onto the photo and mail it more like a postcard. But I like that our version of the card was so easy and quick to make.
