How to Make the Perfect Card with Basic Invite

December 12, 2024 Comments : 43

The holidays can become a craze of parties, shopping and meals with family and friends that often times it can become hard to get everything done in a timely manner. One thing that I don’t have to worry about this year is making my holiday cards! With Basic Invite holiday card making, and sending, is so easy. Also right now through the end of this month you can get 15% off everything on their site!

It is so easy to make any stationary that you want on their website and I am going to walk you through the process step by step.

I was compensated for my review however all my opinions and thoughts are my own. You can see my full disclosures HERE.

First: Decide which type of stationary you need. They offer any type that you could think of. Click the links below to see my favorites:

Christmas Cards with Photographs

Custom Wedding Coasters

Wedding Invitations

Second: Chose which card you love. They have so many different types of cards to chose from. Don’t see one you are in love with? Customize your very own! I picked this one out pictured below that I absolutely loved. I added my own text to personalize it and changed the font text to one of my liking and changed up some of the colors.

The color and font choices are almost limitless which makes customizing your card or invitation easier then ever! There are over 180 different color options so I know that you will find exactly what you are looking for.

Third: Add a photo if you want! I wanted to make a photo Christmas card for our loved ones so I uploaded my own photo.

Fourth: Finalize and place your order!

One of the greatest things about Basic Invite is that you can not only upload your address book and have addresses printed on your envelopes you can also have them sent out directly from Basic Invite. They will address, stamp and send your custom cards out so one less thing to worry about around the holidays or even while planning your wedding! This address book is also stored in your account for future use.

Our finished card before printing. I can’t wait to show you the final holiday card when it comes in!

I know that I will rely on Basic Invite for not only my holiday cards but any future card or invitation needs that may arise!

    We always ordered our holiday cards. We’d hire a photographer, take some pics, etc. It tends to be a little pricey. This service seems a lot easier and less expensive.

    Holiday cards have become such a thing of the past and I hate that. I know that I am guilty for it just like others. This looks like an easy way to do them.

    I absolutely love that they will stamp and send out the cards-addressing envelopes, stamping and mailing can take a lot of time. I also love that it is totally able to be customized to what you really want!
