The holiday season is officially upon us, and you know what that means? It’s time to place your orders for holiday cards! Before you know it, we’ll be days away from festive meals, wrapped presents and time spent with our closest friends and family. Whether you like to send your cards leading into the holiday season, or attach them as a heartfelt addition to your gifts, Basic Invite has countless options for you to select from when it comes to your holiday cards, including options for Hanukkah!

Basic Invite truly has something for everyone, and each card is available in so many colour options. Whether you love a traditional red & green Christmas palette, or you want to switch up your Hanukkah cards from the typical blue to be more gold, Basic Invite has (almost) unlimited colour options with over 180 colours to choose from, allowing you to change up various elements on your selected holiday card and instantly preview it. If you want that extra wow-factor, Basic Invite offers foil cards that are available in silver, gold and rose gold, and you can also select whether you want that foil to lay flat, and be flush with the card, or add a little oomph with a raised foil design.

Whether you want to mail your cards, or attach them to your gifts, envelope choice is key in creating a beautifully packaged holiday card, and Basic Invite‘s wide selection of colour ways doesn’t end with the cards themselves – there are over 40 different colours of envelopes for you to select from, ensuring that your holiday card is sealed up in more than just a plain white envelope (unless, that’s what you want, of course!).

Not sure if you’re going to absolutely fall in love with your selected design? Basic Invite is one of the only websites that you can actually order a sample of your card before making your final decision and placing your order! I’ve truly never seen this option while shopping for custom holiday cards, making this a huge feature when it comes to shopping for cards this holiday season.

So, what about getting everyones address? Since letter mail isn’t as common in 2023, you may not have all of the addresses you need on hand (I know I don’t!). Don’t worry because Basic Invite has got you covered here too, offering an address capturing service to make getting those addresses easier. Simply share a link on social media to request your friends & family’s addresses, and they are instantly stored in your account on Basic Invite’s website. All you have to do is select the addresses you want to send cards to while placing your order and your envelopes will come with the address already nicely printed on. And the best part? This service is at no cost on all card orders!

With so many beautiful design and colour choices, Basic Invite is most definitely where I will be ordering my cards from this holiday season, especially since they are currently offering 15% off orders with code 15FF51!

While you’re placing your holiday card order, don’t forget to follow Basic Invite on social, including Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram and X (formerly Twitter). When it comes to printing holiday cards, the obvious choice is Basic Invite!

Until next time, Emily
