Personally, I like number one the best. Just seems clearer to me and I like the font you used.

The first one does print out much brighter and clearer. Not sure why since it's the exact same photo just moved from one template to the next.

im not sure what program you're using but you might want to put a white glow or stroke around your text on 1 and 3 that way its easier to read....

Using ps to compose them, then picassa to insert warm glow, and shrink to fit then print.

On #1 the kerning on the word Merry is not good, it makes it look like two words. Also as mentioned put a shadow on text, it's too hard to read against hat. Put a comma after Lynne and Tim.

I like #2 the best. Put "from the" on one line.

#3 is not bad but Merry Christmas is too hard to read. Try moving it up and over and making it red and put a comma after Tim.

Good start.

#1 gets my vote except that I would recrop the kids shot so the young ones chin doesn't get masked by the frame.

It can be lots of fun creating your own cards.

With a recrop, and glow on the writing.
