Q: Ideas for what to do with Christmas card pictures we received?
We received a lot of Christmas cards this year where the family either included a picture or was a picture card. I have taken them down but don't want to throw them away. Anyone have any good ideas of how to use them or display them? What do you do with them? Thanks!

A: i believe you should make a collage for xmas 08, and display them on a wall somewhere for the troops to see when they return.

Q: Photoshop ideas for christmas card?
ok so i took a graphic deign class at my highschool and i want to make my parents a card for christmas on photoshop but i don't know wat i should do...any ideas?

A: Get some inspiration from digital scrapbooking Web sites, such as ScrapArtist. If you want some fun art to add to your card, ScrapArtist sells inexpensive graphics you can use. Browse ScrapArtist's gallery. You can do a search for Christmas. Most of the ideas there are digital scrapbook layouts, but you'll find some digital cards in there, too. However, all of it will be inspirational and beautiful.

Q: Christmas Photo Ideas for Male Models?
I need ideas for props and posing of male (adult) models for christmas card ideas. Thanks!

A: I would gather these are to be professional photos???? if so, you can get a LOT of "PROP" stuff at your local WALMART and I know they are already putting out Christmas stuff (that started almost 2 weeks ago).....are you doing GROUP shots or individual? If individual, you could get a christmas tree and have the models place ornaments on it while being photographed in whatever (santa hats, whatever clothes you plan to pose them in)....or you could get a WHITE PAPER backdrop and get little ELF type outfits and put your models in those and have them handling christmas wrapped packages... OR get them sitting around a christmas tree passing presents around.. OR, get a SANTA SUIT and take pictures of each model IN SANTA'S LAP telling Santa what they want for Christmas...

Q: christmas card ideas. help!!!?
i like this girl (forover a year) and she did like me but then she didn't but i think she does again. (i'm 15 and she's 13) so i wanted to get her something but i can't find it so i guess i'm just gonna buy her a card. do u have any ideas of stuff i could put in the card (other than poems) thanks!

A: Poems are good but might be lost on her depending on if she's the type of 13 year old who likes poems. Instead, try writing something from the heart. Not a poem, just what you feel.

Q: Christmas Card Ideas for Girlfriend's Parents?
Ok, so im sending some flowers and stuff to my girlfriend's parents. We have been going out for 1 1/2 years and a card came with the flowers and I wanted to write something mature that says merry christmas and thanks... but i want it to sound intelligent (no dumb crap like i've been seeing on here) and sincere. Here's what i came up with so far: Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from my family to yours! You are all such a blessing in my life! Thank you for all your help!!

A: I think what you have is very thoughtful and if i had a boyfriend i would want him to write something like that to my parents.

Q: Ideas for Christmas card photo, with 2 year old and 9 month old boys?
Every year I make xmas photo cards with my little one, and as of Feb this year I now have 2, so I'd like to include them both in a sweet, not cheezy or annoying photo card. Neither I nor my husband want to/ will be in it. Last years card was of my son playing with xmas lights with a black backdrop, and natural lighting. TIA!

A: Have your 9 month old partially in a large Christmas stocking with some small stocking stuffer items around him and your two year old sitting next to him eating one of Santa's big cookies. Good Luck!!!

Q: Does anyone have ideas for a unique, creative, original Christmas card photo of two small children?
I'm so tired of the standard Christmas photo. I'd greatly appreciate any ideas you might have. Thank you so much!

A: Way before Photoshop I photographed my two girls pulling on a rope. I glued their pictures to hard board and made stand up figures of them. Then I placed those figures on top of a package and ran ribbon through their hands to replace the rope. I rephotographed that. They appeared as if they were standing on top of a package tying the ribbon. Today with Photoshop it should be much easier!

Q: Christmas photo card ideas?
My boyfriend and I want to take those tacky "Merry Christmas" photo cards and send them out to our families this year. We're young, in our 20's. And we want to do something that is unique and fun! And funny. Any ideas? We want to get them professionally done.

A: I like the ugly Christmas sweater look - pick them up at a thrift store. You can also start with design template to get inspired for your picture - find a layout that you like and take a picture that works well for it.

I need some general christmas card sayings to put on our christmas card for kids who are 12 (boy), 9 (boy), 6 (boy), and 5 (girl) years old. We want to send them seperate christmas cards to make it more personal. These are for my spouse's niece and nephews who live in France.

Q: what are some good ideas for our christmas card this year ??
my husband and i live in florida and will be moving after the first of the year. since this is our last year here at the beach, we want to take a picture at the beach to put on our christmas card. any good ideas ?? thanks :)

A: if you're moving somewhere cold(er) then for your cards you could stand on the beach in your winter gear . . . coats, hats, gloves, skis, whatever . . . and it can be a christmas card but also kind of an informal announcement of your move.

Q: Can you give me Ideas for a Christmas Card Please?
Its for an art project and ive got to make a christmas card so i was thinking photography but of what etc. Please Help! x

A: If you can wait long enough, go for a walk around one of the well decorated neighborhoods and take photos (with a tripod) of the most beautifully decorated homes. Or hang up a few colored lights somewhere in the background and make sure they are VERY blurred, with a pretty bauble in the foreground (that one is in focus, of course).

Q: Ideas For A Christmas Card Design?
i need to come up with Christmas card design for art. it must represent Christmas whilst being as imaginative and creative as possible avoiding use of stereotypical images like Christmas trees. Santa etc. so im absolutely idea less. i dont see any way to represent christmas without chrismasy things. can you please give me some ideas? e.g. put a santa head on a pengin body which someone else did but yeah thanks:)

A: Paint something that was real. I mean, during Christmas, you see snowflakes coming down from the sky and populating the buildings or trees around you. Or make up something a thing like ribbons as margins and cutting magazines (white painted) as snowflakes and put it on the openind slid.
