I’ve always had a thing for photo booths.\u00a0 I treasure the classic black & white photo strips I’ve saved of Steve & me during our dating years.\u00a0 So it’s no surprise that I’m loving all the fun photo booth props that are popping up all over pinterest.<\/p>\n

We had a lot of fun with our campy Christmas card<\/a> last year so I wanted to put together another one that brought smiles.\u00a0 Steve wasn’t so sure of my idea, but Jule was totally up for it and the girls won.\u00a0 :-)\u00a0 Here are the props I doodled for our little holiday project…<\/p>\n

If you can see your family or friends having fun with these festive photo props, we made them available for you to print at home HERE<\/a>.\u00a0 We recommend using a 67 pound cardstock.\u00a0 It’s thick enough to be sturdy but not so thick it jams your printer.\u00a0 However I did have to reinforce the reindeer antlers so they would stand up straight.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Cut out around the images & hot glue thin dowels to them.\u00a0 I purchased 5 long thin dowels & cut them by scoring them with a scissors & then breaking them.\u00a0\u00a0 For the shorter sticks you could also use wood kabob skewers or cheap chopsticks.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We just moved some furniture and used wrapping paper as a backdrop.\u00a0 I have this inexpensive light kit for shooting my wholesale line of paper goods<\/a> that we used with a slr camera but a simple flash camera would work just fine too. We got loads of great shots, but I’m only sharing a few since I just printed the cards today and I don’t want to wreck the surprise… (my Christmas cards usually get delivered on the 24th ;-)<\/em><\/p>\n

I plan on bringing these to our family Christmas and hope to get some silly shots of our crew.\u00a0\u00a0 We hope you have fun with these too!<\/p>\n

Here is our finished product! (added at a later date)<\/em><\/p>\n

I cropped our favorite pictures and created a 17″ long photo strip in photoshop and had 11×17 color copies made and cut them up in strips. \u00a0I folded the strip in half and put them in \u00a0colorful #10 envelopes for our 2012 Christmas card.<\/p>\n
