A Truly Custom Card Company

Thank you to Basic Invite for sponsoring this post.

We’ve been sending out Christmas cards for a few years now. Throughout the years, we’ve done them in black and white, in the style of a collage, and all sorts of color palettes. The most difficult part to me is finding holiday cards with just the right border and just the right colors to match your photo.

Enter: Basic Invite. When they reached out to me asking if I’d like to try out their samples, I wasn’t sure what to expect. There are tons of card companies out there, after all. I have to say, I was incredibly impressed. The level of customization you can do with Basic Invite is unreal. It sets them apart from all of the others. You can also choose gold, silver, or rose gold foil to really make a splash.

You can find our tips for perfecting your holiday card photo shoot here.

You can choose from 180 different colors. The best part? You can customize the colors on every part of your design, practically guaranteeing that the beautiful red chairs in your photo will match almost perfectly with the red border on your holiday card.

If you’re really into details (hello there, I see you, too!), you can choose from up to 40 different envelope colors. Another genius modernization here…the envelopes are peel and seal. That’s right. That means no licking, no icky damp sponge, and no need to worry about frantically ordering a sponge sealer off of Amazon in time to get your Christmas cards out. Been there, tried all three.

Use code 15FF51 for 15% off your order through the end of the month. Search everything from modern holiday cards to cheap christmas cards, and even find your perfect christmas invite template.

I love the fact that you can also order sample cards before committing to a full batch of 100 or 200 cards. It’s brilliant. You can see how close the colors you chose coordinate with your photos and pick from as many samples as you’d like to order at a very low price before you settle on “the one.”

Basic Invite also offers recipient address labeling at no additional cost on all orders. Let’s face it. It’s hard to stay organized once the holidays start getting underway. Once Thanksgiving hits, everything else is a blur. See how we stay organized here. Basic Invite takes one thing off your list by allowing you to share a link with friends and family over Facebook, Instagram, and several other social media platforms so they can update their mailing address.

If you haven’t ordered your cards this year, I highly recommend checking out Basic Invite. And, don’t forget to use code 15FF51 today through the end of the month for 15% off.

Happy designing!
