Shutterfly's most excellent Christmas card promo

As we here at Right Girl Writes are both nosy and obsessed with pictures of our furry friends the Puggles, we're thrilled to share the 2010 Shutterfly Holiday card collection with readers and the Shutterfly Holiday Card Promotion with our fellow bloggers.

Yes, this is a promotional blog post. Shutterfly is wisely using this sort of "grassroots" advertising by offering bloggers a reward for spreading the word about their product.

Now, the details: If you're a Shutterfly user like me, you know you can count on their high quality products -- my personal favorite is the photo book. My Iowan friends the Schuttes use their wall calendar products. Have you tried their stationery and cards?

If you're not familiar with Shutterfly, you're in for a treat! In this instance, professional-looking cards are within reach. Choose a set for any holiday, or for a baptism, anniversary, save the date announcement, and more. The most difficult thing will be picking which photo(s) to use.

The best starting page for someone new to Shutterfly's cards is this one -- browse the fabulous designs by holiday (Hannukah, Thanksgiving, New Year's and so on); number of pictures on card; and more.

A few of my favorites:

I am partial to photo cards with lots of opportunities for photos, as pictured above...it is seriously difficult to choose! Whether you have pets or actual children, you undoubtedly have some pictures of them you'd like to share.

If you aren't ready to commit, give it a trial run! Use promo code CARD4U to get a free 5x7 photo card -- just pay 99-cent shipping! And if you like what you see, there's plenty of time to place a full order.

Not so into the holiday holidays? Check out their extensive Valentine's Day selection!

If you are a blogger and would like to join me in doing the Holiday Card Promotion, don't delay -- click here today.

Thanks, Shutterfly, for asking us to play!

Are you slick?

Take a moment to browse one of my addictions, SlickDeals.net.

They've started incorporating local deals, so you no longer need to read your daily email from Groupon, LivingSocial, PlumDistrict, and so on.

Because everyone checks those sites, right?
