Tara Hogan’s 2012 calendar ($44) is out now, and we always look forward to seeing her new design. Purchase direct from her site at Ink+Wit, and hurry since there’s only 125 pieces.

The holidays rush at us, don’t they?  Next week comes Thanksgiving, that’s filled with out-of-town guests, travel plans, and dinner preparations.  There’s almost little time to think about Christmas, especially holiday cards.

If you want to get your holiday cards done, however, it’s best to get them ordered now, because you need to have time to get them delivered, addressed, and out in the mail.  To help you make your holiday card project easier, here are three ways to will help make your customization easier, your mailing headache-free, and your design search faster.

1. Preview your photo in all of Minted’s card designs at once.  Part of ordering custom holiday photo cards is inserting your photo into the card design to see how it looks.  Use Minted’s Find It Fast feature, and you only have to do this once.  Just upload your photo into Minted, and it will insert it into all of Minted’s holiday cards so you can quickly preview which card design looks best with your photo.
2. Let Paper Culture address and mail your cards – for free.  When you use Paper Culture’s Mail and Message service, every card you send out will get a unique message from you, a recipient address, your return address, and even a real postage stamp (no metering).  All you’d be missing is the personal handwritten note or signature, but this is a huge time saver for busy people.  Best of all, this service is free – all you pay for is the stamp.
3. Use Nouncee’s global card search to find designs faster.  Tired of hopping from one card site to another?  Use Nouncee’s search tool, and you can quickly see holiday card designs from these top online printers all in one site – Tiny Prints, Minted, Paper Culture, Cardstore, eInvite, and Paper Source.

For frazzled new parents who might not have the time to order and mail out printed birth announcements, there’s Nursery Notice, a new service that delivers beautifully designed online birth announcements via email. While printed announcements are limited on the photos, with Nursery Notice you can upload up to 15 photos that are delivered as a slide show attached to the announcement.

After selecting my photos, and having my email list ready, the whole process of getting my online announcement ready took no more than 10 minutes. For new parents short on nerves and time, Nursery Notice is a great time saver.

With their basic announcement service starting at just $34, Nursery Notice won’t bust your budget either.
