Basic Invite holiday cards
While giving out as many Christmas cards and party invitations as you receiveย can be daunting for even the most jolly holidaymakers, Basic Invite has styles and colors to celebrate lifeโs merriestย occasions. It's one of the few websites that allows for complete customization. Choose from 250 holiday card designs. Customize your design with 180 different color options, plus real gold and silver foil detailing. Instant online previews make designing your cards easy and fun.

Basic Invite party invitations
Forย those who have decked yourย halls in preparation for hostingย a party, Basic Invite providesย a selection of holiday invitations at the ready. Email invitations are just fine. A printed invitation received in the mail feels so much more festive and special. Plus, a photo invitationย can do double duty as your annual holiday card!
Basic Invite New Year cards
Between holiday-themed school functions, neighborhood events and wishlist shopping, Decemberย has a way of being a whirlwind month. A revolving door of activities can make it difficult to keep up on everything on your to-do list. But if you're too busy (or late) to send out Christmas or Hanukkah cards this year, never fear! It happens to the best of us. Thankfully Basic Invite offers fun New Year card designs too. Friends and family will love receiving your glad tidings post-December for the year-to-come.
Basic Invite envelopes
Basic Invite's envelope options are just as colorful as their cards. Choose from more than 40 different colors to complement your creation. Better yet, all of theirย envelopes are peel-and-seal, allowing for secure closure without ever having to lick a single one. Withย their brand new address capturing service, you wonโt have to write out a single address either. Simply share a link on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any other form of social media requesting your friends and familyโs addresses. The information is then stored in your customer account, which can be selected during the design process. This is offered at no additional cost during the 2016 holiday season.

So SO cute! I really like the layout options they have.
Agreed, Beeb!
I don’t usually send out cards. There isn’t much time to change that this year but I may send out some next year using this company. Love their style!
Sheena – I can see why you’re tempted to start sending cards wit Basic Invite ~ they are so cute and their site is so easy to use!
I absolutely adore the second one. All those blues make it feel much more wintery.
I really like that one, too, Kita.
Those are gorgeous card options. Thank you for the discount as well!

What a fun and unique idea! I wanted to try it next year! It’s really nice to know that there are different ways to have a invite holiday cards.

They do have some beautiful designs, don’t they Dana. Thanks for taking the time to comment!
I missed out on making holiday cards this year. Definitely looking forward to making some next year!
Lisa Favre ~ There’s still time for New Year’s cards! ๐
Aww, this is a wonderful way to create meaningful cards! It’s nice that they have so many different customization options!
Completely agree, Liz! If I’m going to take the time to personalize a card or invite, I want a lot of options to really make it my own.
These are so cute!! Love all of these ideas!
I love all the options for personalization, JulieD. If I’m going to send out a customized card, then I definitely want choices in terms of color, font, etc. Looks like this fits the bill across the board!
Love this. What a really great idea. I will give this a try next year. This year I was bad and didn’t bother sending any cards but 1. Whoops. I just really ran out of time!
Totally understand, Jeanine. I’m forever running out of time, too ๐
I have used a lot of online invite and printing companies, but I don’t think I have used Basic Invite. I will have to check it out.
Let us know what you think when you do, Pam!
I have seen a few people post about them and I think I need to try them out next year!!
I think I need to try them out in the New Year as well, Reesa!
This looks like a great service. I normally send out a couple cards, but they are just cards I get at the store. I will be checking into Basic Invite.
I’m with you, Catherine. Store-bought cards are the name of the game at our house as well, but I’m thinking not anymore ๐
I love Basic Invite. I’ve been using them for a couple of years now. The first time I saw the service, I new it was for me.
Awesome, Stacie! What do you think of their services now that you’re a regular customer?
