Christmas in July with Basic Invite

Happy Friday everyone!

If you have followed me for awhile you know we do a Christmas card every single year and about my never ending love for fabulous stationary. Basic Invite reached out to me a few weeks ago to collaborate on a post with them and after doing a bit of my own research and hearing their ideas for this post I knew they were a company I would feel comfortable introducing y'all to.

From an early age my Momma ingrained in me the now {almost} lost art of a handwritten note. She would buy me stationary during her travels or we would pick some up at different stores we visited in our area. To this day we both "collect" so to speak beautiful, unique stationary and I love that we share this. She sends me cards every few weeks and I keep them tucked away for the day when those cards won't come anymore and I can look back on her words of wisdom.

I wanted to make sure I was able to see for myself the quality of their stationary before recommending them to my readers so I placed a small sample order. As you can see in the photos above I selected two styles of "Thank You" notes and one custom "Note Pad". The quality is superb and I love the customization I was able to do on their website. Most companies only allow you to view a digital rendering of your custom card but for a small fee you are able to actually order any amount you want, check them out in person and if they are to your liking, order more directly. Obviously that is best if you have ample time to order but you can choose to look at a digital sample if time is an issue.

While creating my custom samples I was shocked at the virtually, unlimited {over 180} color options with instant preview online. I was able to quickly select the exact color I wanted and preview how it would look. I have used many companies for Christmas cards, baby shower and birthday party invites over the last 5 years and I have never seen a company that offers so many different color options. A huge plus for me!

My other favorite "service" they offer is Address Capturing. They create a link you can share to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and many other social media platforms to request friends and family's addresses which will be stored in your customer account and then the addresses can be selected during the design process. They also offer printing of recipient address at no cost on ALL card orders.

If you have an event coming up or want to purchase some high quality stationary Basic Invite is offering 15% off your order with code 15FF51 until the end of July. I have checked out their options for Christmas cards and Holiday Party Invitations and saved a few templates I really love for when we do our Christmas cards later year.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
