Basic Invite Custom Invites

 

Like most people, the holidays are my favorite time of the year. I absolutely LOVE every aspect of this season (actually, I could do without the 30 degree weather), so partaking in every themed opportunity I can is essential. One of those particular opportunities is Christmas cards. I love the cheesy sayings and cute dog photos that are included on almost every card you receive. 

Funnily, my family is so large, so we never have any additional room for dog photos or life updates. Simple and to the point is our goal when creating Christmas cards. I honestly can't wait until Bryce and I can create our own pet Christmas cards with Tyson - or is that taking it too far? When we do, we will totally be using Basic Invite for our holiday cards. 

Basic Invite is a cute website where you can personalize your own invitations, business cards, stationary or announcements. They are all custom and delivered right to your door. The best part is that you can customize your order, have a sample delivered to see if you like it, and then decide whether or not you want to place your final order. I am obsessed with this aspect because who knows what your own design will turn out to look like (mine would be a disaster). 

Another really fun feature is the address capturing service that Basic Invite offers. It literally connects to your social media, requests an address from your friends and family and then stores each address in your Basic Invite account. I don't know anyone who has an address book anymore, so this is SO convenient. 

I went ahead and ordered a few different types of stationary, with my own customized shade of pink, font and shapes. The templates are so cute that I really didn't change much, but the options are endless. Below are some additional ideas for achieving the best holiday cards.

Basic Invite is currently running a 30% off promotion with the code "HOLI30". Make sure to use this when you checkout to get 30% off your entire order.
