Share your funny holiday cards

Maybe you snapped a picture just as your toddler was yanking on Santa’s beard. Or the whole family posed in matching elf-wear. Or your dog sported fake antlers.

If those priceless photos are part of your hilarious homemade holiday cards, you have a chance to share them with the world. Send cards to The Herald so we can post them online. The cards can be from this season or past years.

E-mail your photos or the whole card to jdavis@heraldnet.com or mail them to The Herald, Attn. Jim Davis, P.O. Box 930, Everett, WA 98206-0930. You can also drop off materials at our office at 1213 California St., Everett.

The cards must be original work and people submitting the cards must ensure that they can be reprinted. Include the name of the photographer or artist, a daytime phone number or e-mail address and the names of the people photographed. Include a short description about the card and what makes the season so special for your family. Deadline is Dec. 20.
