What a neat idea! I would use them as all purpose cards – thank yous, keeping in touch, birthday, etc. – w/ a photo of our sweet kids to boot!
I would use them to stay in touch with friends and relatives. Last year I didn’t have one with our newborn so this offer would be the perfect opportunity to do just that.
If I won, I would create a general card. I love to send cards to family and friends from ‘get well’ to ‘thank you’ to birthday to ‘thinking of you’ cards. I would probably choose a pic of my daughter for the cover. Thanks for having this contest!
I would use them for Christmas! I’ve always wanted to send out Christmas cards to everyone I know so far haven’t managed to come even close. I’d love to do a card with a collage of pictures of our year this year, our vacation, and our many foster kitties.
Awesome Sara! If I won, I would just them as Thinking of You cards. I would send them out to all friends, relatives that we haven’t talked to in a long while because they live so far away. Just a little something to let them know that we think of them always and haven’t forgotten about them.
I would use these to help my husband get his new business going!
I would use them in a variety of ways. I would send them out to my friends and family as I am a dedicated letter writer. I would also use them to promote my craft business by attaching a pair of earrings, bookmark, keychain, or bracelet to the front of the cards.
I would use these for Christmas to send to nursing homes and veteran homes. So many people do not have family and just a card could lighten them up for the holiday.
I would use them to keep in touch with faroff relatives and also to send greetings to people I know who need cheering up and dont have much to look forward too. Also to the people in my mothers nursing home who are always forgotten
christmas cards
Im interested in signing up to host a Feeding America dinner party. These cards would be perfect! I could also use greeting cards for the day to day thank yous for all the wonderful people in my life
beskeie´s last blog ..Reviewed: Viberam Five Fingers!
Oh, my! This really would be terrific. Would have to give the cover design some very serious thought and that would probably determine the use for them, but am thinking multi-purpose right now. Subject to change, of course!
for the holidays October Prize: 4″ x 6″ Personalized Baby Name Frame
I might use my custom greeting cards from Uprinting as Christmas cards, as note cards, as thank you cards….so many possibilities!
Thank you.
I might use the custom greeting cards to send out holiday cheer to family and friends. Maybe with so many cards, I would send cheer to friends that I have lost touch with over the years.
Another way that I might use the cards is for the relay for life. We have a team here in Saratoga, and this would be a great way to promote our team and raise money for a worthy cause…
I would definitely use the greeting cards for Christmas. I love sending out Christmas cards and and participate in several Christmas card swaps each year. Thanks for the chance.
I would enjoy the UPrinting cards to use as general notecards for thankyous, get well, and special notes to keep in touch with people. I would like a Photo of our home on the cover.
I work for Hospice I always send a card to my patients and their families I would use these for that. What a cool idea thanks so much…
I will use these custom cards for my family Christmas cards. I will put our family picture on the front with a holiday gretting on the inside.
I would get a greeting cards assortment. jelly15301@gmail.com
i would love for my church to have these for member contact!,
I would definitely use these cards for Christmas. We usually send out 75, but this year, with both my husbands company and my company closing, there are more people we want to keep in touch with and send cards to. We will put a picture of our little family of four. Thanks for the opportunity.
I would make family christmas cards!! Great contest. Thanks for the chance.
mogrill@comcast.net
Definately all occasion cards with the picture being my FAVORITE work of art from my 20 year old, done when he was in 5th grade. That would be fabulous!
I would like to send out cards to everyone in my family, friends from college and back home. Ever since I moved away from my hometown I’ve slowly lost touch with everyone. Even keeping track through email just isn’t the same. This would really help me get back in touch with everyone.
I would design cards to be sent to my troops in Afghanistan, for them to use, to send home to their families and loved ones. Most have no place to buy cards where they are stationed. I have sent envelopes and paper before. Cards would be very nice
I would use these as “Thank You” cards for my wedding that is a year from today!
I’d love to use these for my family Christmas cards. Thanks!

I would use the cards to send out for Christmas. They would be beautiful with my daughters art on them!
I have never had cards like that made before. It would be very exciting for my kids to send them out also. Good excuse for a new family photo!
I would use them for Christmas cards, and/or Thinking of you cards. My husband’s grandmother has Alzheimer’s and lives about 14 hours away from us. So, we sent her a card every week with a picture of us inside to remind her who we are and that we love her.
I give them to my daughter. She’s moving out this month and since she is very artistic she could make great use of these for Christmas cards.
first of all thanks for a great giveaway..i often need just thinking of you or thank you notes….this would be a great win for me as i really would put them to good use…
el1717
I would use them at Christmas. Thank you for this opportunity.
Depending on the timing of receiving them, I would use them as a way of introducing far away friends and family to Maggie, who is expected around the end of November or as a family Christmas card.
I send most cards out at Christmas
I would donate them to a local homeless shelter so the residents can have the joy of remembering their loved ones on special occasions.
I would use them for Christmas cards and keeping in touch with family and friends. Thank you!
katlupe´s last blog ..Preparing For Off-The-Grid Life

I would use them for several different cards. Christmas cards are one of my absolute favorites to send out. In addition, I would use some for every day cards to send out to friends and family to say hi. I have two nephews in college and they love to receive mail from the family. I would include the cards in my care packages to the boys. Letters of encouragement to friends and family is something that I do regularly. Like others, I would love to win these fantastic cards. Thanks for the opportunity!
I would make great use of these by making beautiful artwork (I have a master’s in fine arts) and creating holiday cards to share with friends/family since we are limited on budget due to job loss/unemployment for a whole year now. I appreciate the opportunity, thanks for doing the work and good luck to all who entered.
I would use these cards to keep in touch with family and friends as well as send to soldiers in the hospital in Afganistan. could send one with each quilt I make. What a great way to thank them for taking care of us.

Carrie´s last blog ..Maudsley Parents Conference Recap
I would use these as my Christmas cards!
Great for the Holidays. I usually give just plain cards out at Christmas but this would make it special
Would love to use as a greeting card for all occasions. Can never have enough of those.
Well baby #2 is due early December-so we would use these as Christmas cards to showcase our new family make-up!
Sara Sounds like a great give away. I would use them to keep in touch with family and friends. To always have a cad when needed. It seems like I aways have to make one when I am short on time. Colleen
I would use them as an all purpose card, with a picture of my Kiddos on them! What a wonderful contest!
In this day and age of modern technology, what better way to keep in touch in a much more personal manner. I always look forward to Xmas and receiving my traditional gift of assorted greeting cards from my sister.I would really love to win these cards. Thank you.
I would SO use uprinting.com to print up one of our fabulous wedding pictures and send out Thank Yous for our first two receptions and MAYBE Thank yous for the upcoming third OR AS INVITES! YAY!
I would use the cards to thank the volunteers who have helped me organize and start my non-profit organization, The Foundation for Fighting T-Cell Lymphoma. I am a 3 year cancer survivor and my cancer was very rare. The foundation is to raise awareness for this cancer as well as funds for research. Thanks for the opportunity to enter to win.
General cards to be used all year long…for Thank yous, hellos etc
I would use them to send Christmas cards to our monthly supporters of our missions projects. I will be sending them anyway and this would definitely save us a lot of money!
I would use some for personalized holiday greetings, but would also frame some and make holiday gifts!
Terrific idea … especially in our slow economy!
I am basically homebound and have recently started a new craft business. I would use these cards, with appropriate self-designed images to promote my one-of-a-kind items. Also, since I recently relocated 600 miles from ‘home’, it would be fantastic way to keep in touch with relatives and friends … the old-fashioned way — via
snail mail!
I would use my notecards for messages of encourgement, for friends with loss or illness, and for celebration. I have some great photos, so this would be a wonderful opportunity for me!
Thank you,
Joyce McLain
These would make great birth announcements! My youngest son and his wife are expecting their first child soon and this would be the greatest announcements! I could also use them for Christmas cards, thinking of you, keeping in touch, birthdays, and other holidays.
Hugs, Paula
I would do Christmas and send the to everyone that came to our wedding. Seven years ago the Christmas after we got married, I sent card to everyone that celebrated our big day with us. I would love to send them all a card and enclosed a picture of us now (including our daughter). I think it would be a great surprise. I would also send them to the men and women fighting overseas for our country.
I would use them probably as thank-you cards, notes to friends, maybe even birthday cards! So many different choices
!
I would use them for Christmas cards and notecards. Thank you!

I would give them to the vets at our local Veteran’s Hospital. They love to keep in touch with family and friends and I love volunteering there!
I would use them for all occasion cards. I love to send out cards just to say Hi or I love you! These would be perfect.
I would use mine to update everyone on my chickens
I have acquired a few more and would love to send them to my friends and family who think I have lost my mind!
I would share them with family and friends that could also use them,and keep some for my use for any holiday & thank you note.
I love greeting cards! I would use them by giving them out to the faculty at school. Every year we give every faculty member a Christmas a gift. I would attach one to every gift to let them know we thank them for all that they do.
I would use them for Christmas Card’s. I would also probably frame some for hoilday gift’s
Thanks for this opportunity, Sara. We do quite a bit of volunteer work. I would use the cards as “encouragement” cards. They would serve to brighten the day of shut ins, the ill, those in institutions, the handicapped, and folks serving in the military, missions, and other foreign fields. I would want the cards to encourage them to not give up, and let them know they are remembered. Thanks!
My husband and I are Outreach Leaders for our Bible Study Class – we write encouraging cards to sick and shut-in members of our church, and also friends and family members of our Class. Each Wednesday, generally 15-22 people from our class gather, eat together and write our cards. This would be a wonderful gift to our ‘mission’.
Didn’t my comment print? Well, I’d use the fabulous uprinting.com by having one of our fabulous wedding photos printed for thank yous and, perhaps, for another reception invite for people on the other side of the country! YAY.
I’d use them to send notes of encouragement to our deployed military personnel.
I would use them and be happy that they were FREE!
I would be very happy to have the notes, so I can send cards for special occasions.
I could really use the 250 cards. I have been using my photos and handmaking my own cards for many years. I send them, gift them and box them up and give them to families that are struggling financially. Have a great day everyone!!!
These would be great to use to keep in touch with family & friends out of state, customer & holidays! These would be wonderful!
I have a 91 year old grama that enjoys getting cards and shows them off to all of her friends at the retirement home she lives in. I have become a weekly writer to her and many of her friends and would enjoys sending custom cards to all of them.
Thank you
i would share some of them with my mom they are retired and only have social security for there income. i would send to all my family and friends and we have a paper route it is always nice to gave them a christmas card for christmas.
I would use them as Christmas cards, and then if I had any left over I would use them as everyday cards to send to people just for a pick me up to brighten someones day.
I love sending ’smile’ or ‘thought of you today’ cards most of all…they’re so unexpected and joyful! I’d have so much fun creating a few cards to have on hand just for that purpose.
~~
I think this is awesone! I have a great use already in mind…I am a team mom for a high school wrestling team and think it would be great if I could print a team photo on the front and have all the teammates write a sweet note to their parents thanking them for all they do. Wresting is not a sport that receives much support from the school, so much is put on to the parents and their really step up from driving the kids 2-3 hours for a tournament, site ALL day to see up to 6 minutes of action, bring meals for the day, and be there to celebrate victory or a shoulder to cry on when they reach defeat. There is nothing like a wrestling parent! Thank you.
I would use them to promote my business. The picture would be the front of my building.
The workplace can be pretty grim these days with layoffs, downsizing, cutbacks, and I would use MY custom cards to share some daily encouragement with my co-workers.remembering birthdays, anniversaries, just giving pats on the back or chin up cards could bless all of us on a daily basis.PLEASE let me win!
I will use the cards as Thank You cards, birthday cards, and note cards–with 250 I can use them for everything!
I would use them to just Keep in touch…with electronic gagets these days I hate not getting letters, I would love to just send little notes from time to time to family and friends letting them know I care!!!
I would use the cards with my Youth group at church! We are always sending notes…. thank you notes, missing you notes, feel better soon notes, etc!
I think it would be great to be able to send their picture with the note! Smiling faces are always a day brightener!
=)

I always loved the picture Christmas cards and greeting cards, but never able to afford them. My daughter is 12, and I would love to give a personal card this year. Haven’t even sent greeting cards in a couple of years due to finances. Seems relatives are so scattered around. It would be nice to send a personal greeting. Also would be able to give to friends in church and nursing homes we visit. Thanks for the chance. michelle Love your newspaper column by the way.
I think everyone should use snail mail more instead of e-mail, etc. a lot of older people still use old ways of doing things. Open the mailbox and find a letter or card from a friend. Old To The Memories.
Well would like to win, used to send out pictures of Wife and I, and all the kids at Christmas. Was about 15 years I did that, untill I retired, now with all the Grandkids it would be great to restart the tradition.
Read the rules, and it sounds like it’s just a matter of numbers, well let my entry drop in just the right spot for selection:D
What a great give away. I would give them the folks in our area who go to the soup kitchen, to let them know they are not forgotten during the holidays.
We have a much-loved tradition of sending a special family photo on our Christmas cards to family and friends each year. For my husband and I to be able to create our own custom cards together with our three amazing daughters would make the tradition even more memorable. Thank you for this opportunity, and for the wonderful information you share with us all!
I would use the cards in a variety of ways.
Thank You,
Dawn
Thanks for another opportunity Sara!
I’d use them to promote my husband’s business, as I’ve mentioned in my posts – we are desperate to market the business with no budget whatsoever! These would allow us to contact businesses, real estate agents and potential clients with a high-end look, for zero dollars!
Will definitely use for Holiday cards. Thanks!
They can be used as Thank You cards, welcome to the neighborhood cards, the church is having a potluck lunch cards. I would use them for all the above mentioned.
I would make christmas cards. I have a lot of family and spend a lot of money buying and mailing out cards every year.
I would make thank you cards to be used at a charity auction I am helping put on this winter. These would be perfect to send to people who donate and/or purchase items at our event.
kerrie@mayansfamily.com
I would love to have these for Christmas. I like to send original cards every year, whether a photo of the family or original artwork by me or my daughter.
Currently I use VistaPrint but I’d love to try this company. I am newly published author getting rave reviews (no, really, and I didn’t even have to use the bribe money I’ve been saving!)and I’d really really love to use these to promote my novel! That would be great. I love using printing companies–they do such great jobs, better than I could ever do!
Great offer…I want to win! I have 5 kids (yes 5!) and I am always looking for cards for them to either write thank you’s or happy birthdays. That is how I would use most of them. Thanks, Liz
I would let my kids write letter to people they know or to grandparents and aunts and uncles who do not live here.
I would make holiday cards using a family photo
I would use them for christmas
I would give them to my daughter for her club at school that is always looking for community service projects. They could send thinking of you and thank you cards to nursing homes, veterans, military, etc.
I would use them for Christmas cards.
Cool! These would make nice ‘thank you’s’ for customers in my online sales!
Constance´s last blog ..The T-Shirt Quilt is Finished!
Thank you for this offer! My wife and I will use the cards to send out personalized Christmas cards. We just spent an evening at the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island and had a wonderful picture taken that we will be using…

Matt Jabs´s last blog ..Credit Cards – Close ‘em Shred ‘em & Forget ‘em!
My husband and I have alot of relatives all over the country. At the present I send out 3-5 cards a week. I send out get well cards,birthday,congradulations,different holiday cards,and thinking of you cards. Family and friends are important to us and a card last longer than an e-mail or a telephone call.
I would use them to send birthday, thank yous and get well cards to all the kids on my caseload as well as their siblings.
i’d use them for sending thank yous, birthday greetings and keeping in touch with far away friends
I would use these to keep in touch with family and friends. I would probably choose a general type of picture so the cards could be used for most any occassion.
I would use them for everything! Thank you cards, get well cards, Christmas cards, just to say hi, etc. This is a great giveaway!
I’d use these as combined Holiday and Birth Announcements. They’d also be great to update family on our address!
I would use them for Christmas!
This is a great promotion!
I would use the cards as a quick thinking of you type. Its always nice to have a card ready to go when ever I am thinking of someone. I want to brighten their day and let them know if though we all have busy lives someone took the time out of their life to send a card.
Thanks again,
If I was one of the lucky winners, I would use them for keeping in touch with my friends. Emails are wonderful, but I personally think getting something in the mail that was handwritten by a loved one says so much more.
Good luck to everyone!
I would make just because/thinking of you cards with scripture and pretty scenery.
I would send out greeting cards with pictures of my 6 month old Daughter Semira. I have not had time to do this due to just being so busy with baby, husband, work and school. Let alone a few minutes to myself.
I have a ton of birthdays coming up..I would put them too good use.
I would like to use them for wedding invitations!
Although many now send greetings via email, I still like the tactality of sending a greeting for holidays and birthdays and sometimes “Just Because” with a card or note that can be held in the hand and has a hand written note inside. I know that I personally have loved saving greetings from those that are dear to me. It’s hard to save and hold an email. Anyway that’s what I would do with the cards if I won them.
I would probably put a photo that I’ve taken, as I love to photograph my family and things about our local community, It might be my granddaughter or my family or maybe our local Lighthouse that I photograph on a weekly basis with the changes of the seasons.
My daughters think I am personally responsible for keeping the U.S. Postal Service solvent with all the cards I send. LOL!
Thanks for the opportunity to enter!
I will use them as Christmas Card send-outs with a pic. of my boys!
Thanks for the giveaway…
We would use them for Xmas / New Year’s greetings, customized with family photos…
I’d use the cards to keep in touch with friends & family throughout the year. E-mail is quicker, but not as precious as a handwritten keepsake.
I would use them as greeting cards for the upcoming holiday season.
i would get Christmas cards since it’s coming up, fast!
This great offer would be a wonderful way to share a picture of the beauty of our home island with our friends from around the world. I love sending out cards for all reasons and occasions and wouldn’t this be a new and different way to share!!

Cut back on products you don’t need

As a society, we’re fortunate — so much so that we’ve become gluttonous. Wants and needs have become blurred. We’ve become conditioned to believe we need many things. Some people might even think chocolate is a food group. But in all seriousness, we’ve forgotten that we live in the land of options. Modern life is different from basic life. But many of the convenience products we enjoy have …

Use up evaporated milk

In the back of the pantry, you might find a couple of cans of evaporated milk that are close to expiring. It typically lasts about a year unopened in the pantry and once opened and refrigerated, you have about a week to use it. It’s wonderful when used in mashed or scalloped potatoes, coffee or tea, scrambled eggs, pies or French toast, to a name few.
