Idea for Christmas card portrait

[Jeffrey_Douglas]

Hope this is not an inappropriate question for this forum.

I am going to be shooting a family (3 kids and 2 adults) portrait for a Christmas card. I will probably be shooting it in their home and right now I'm thinking of just using a white paper roll for the background and just having Christmas art on the card and just dropping the photo in.

I don't have any Christmas themed background and I really don't want to try to Photoshop them into a fake background.

If anyone has any suggestions or can point me to any examples I would greatly appreciate it.

I will be shooting with a 20d, two AB 800s, softbox, umbrellas, etc. I am really just looking for background and card examples.

Thanks

Jeffery,

One photo greeting card I saw that I really liked was the family asleep in front of the fireplace waiting for Santa to come down the chimmney. It may be a little more involved than these folks want to do, and may not even be the kind of thing they are looking for, but it is creative and the one I saw turned out quite well!
