What is the one thing that happens every time you are gathered around friends and family?

I have a confession to make this year… ready for it? I didn’t take my annual family photos. For the first time in over 12 years, I skipped it. Every year, without fail, I’ve made it a priority.

But let’s be real, after a few years of doing the same ol’ thing, maybe you’re ready to step up your holiday card game. Luckily, 2024 is the year of creativity and personalization.
