Best Christmas cards for 2018

The calendar says ‘December’ so we can all finally agree it’s the Christmas season. I don’t know what side of the November-Christmas season you’re on, but in December, we’re all on the same team again.

Hallelujah.

This week is all about Christmas on the blog, in our house, and in my heart. Cheesy, but VERY TRUE.

First on the list of holiday prep for many people is ordering their holiday cards. Whether you’re in charge of the company Christmas cards, putting your extended family on a New Year’s card, or you’re continuing your tradition of featuring your cute dog on the Hanukkah card, Basic Invite has you covered.

I’ve ordered our Christmas cards from lots of different companies over the years, and I have to admit all companies are not created equal. With Basic Invite you don’t have to worry about not getting the best Christmas cards. They’re printing cards on quality paper and to make sure you love what you’re getting, you can even request a sample card before pulling the trigger on the whole box.

Basic Invite also offers almost unlimited colors. One of the hardest things for me about picking holiday cards is making sure the picture I want to use looks good visually with the card I’ve selected. People creating those cards are amazing, but sometimes I want a different color font or border. With Basic Invite, once you select a design you can change the color of each element on the card to over 180 different color options so you can make sure the card is exactly how you want it down to the littlest detail. That’s some extreme customer service right there.

Confession time: I have a friend who orders cards every year but often doesn’t get them addressed and mailed because she just runs out of time. SHE ORDERS THE CARDS AND NEVER SENDS THEM.

This is a tragedy.

As soon as I learned of Basic Invite and their address capturing service, I texted my friend to let her know someone has solved her time problem. Here’s how it works: You share a link on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any other form of social media to request your friends’ and family’s addresses which will be stored in your account and can then be selected during the design process. Basic Invite offers recipient address printing at no cost on all Christmas card orders.

No more ordering the cards and then rushing to get them mailed. Added bonus: They have over 40 envelope colors (all with peel-and-seal closures) to choose from so if you don’t want your holiday card to get lost in the stack of bills and junk mail, go with a bright, festive color to stand out. (I love a green envelope, if you want my unnecessary opinion on envelopes.)

Basic Invite has thought of every detail.

Right now Basic Invite is offering 30% off your order with coupon code: holi30

Later this month, I’ll share what card we picked as our family Christmas card. They turned out so good, I can’t wait to share what we got. Until then, it’s your turn! Pick your favorite and order them today before the holiday card sale ends. Then make sure you send one to me, because it’s Christmas and it’s the right thing to do.
