The Best Holiday Greetings: Designed Photo Cards
My fridge has truly become one of my favorite parts of my apartment. It’s a chaotic spot, filled with pictures and invitations and souvenir magnets and other little bits and bobs that reflect my life back at me every time I open its door in search of a snack. I love it year round, but this time of year it becomes especially fun, as holiday cards start rolling in and it fills up with the smiling faces of my loved ones from all over the world.
It’s one of the best parts of the holiday season, that chance to reflect on all of the great memories and milestones the past year had in store– both my own and those of my friends and family. I’m at that age where adventures and weddings and kids mean that every year my friend group expands and changes, and I look forward to holiday cards as a way of keeping us all connected.
It’s no secret that I love pictures. I’m that friend who is always trying to capture the moment with a selfie, a group shot, a food photo. I love the idea of making my memories tangible, of having something that I can look back on for years to come, and holiday photo cards are one of the best ways to share those tangible memories with others.
And speaking of holiday cards, I recently stumbled upon a way to elevate that annual tradition to a whole new level—Basic Invite. As I sat down to design holiday cards this year, I discovered a treasure trove of features that set Basic Invite apart from the rest of the online stationery crowd.
One of the things that immediately caught my eye was the impressive color customization options. I've always been a stickler for details, and with Basic Invite, I can tweak almost every element on my card. The shape, the color, the layout, the font, the envelope color, it's all customizable. The best part? Before placing your final order, you have the chance to order a printed sample of your actual card. This means you can feel the paper quality, see how it would print, and ensure that every detail is perfect. It's those extra steps that make all the difference when you're creating something as special as holiday cards.
Addressing the envelopes used to be a time-consuming task, but not anymore. Basic Invite has a genius address capturing service that saves hours. You simply share a link on my social media that your friends can visit to input their details, and just like that, you have all your friends and family's addresses stored in your account. And the cherry on top? Basic Invite offers free recipient address printing on all card orders, and the envelopes are peel and seal, making the process quick and secure. No more licking envelopes for us! Talk about a holiday miracle!
Now, let's add a touch of glamor to the mix—foil. Basic Invite offers foil cards in gold, silver, and rose gold, with the option of flat or raised foil on all designs. It's the kind of detail that takes a card from charming to absolutely stunning. Add a sprinkle of festive magic to each card, making them stand out in the sea of seasonal greetings.
And for my fellow festive enthusiasts, basicinvite.com Christmas cards are currently spreading the holiday cheer with a generous 15% off. Just use the coupon code 15FF51 at checkout. It's the perfect nudge to turn your holiday card dreams into reality.
