Basic Invite holiday cards

While giving out as many Christmas cards and party invitations as you receive can be daunting for even the most jolly holidaymakers, Basic Invite has styles and colors to celebrate life’s merriest 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 is all about making each card just how you want it – down to the littlest detail. You can even order a printed sample of your finished project to make sure your vision has been fully realized, all before your final order is placed. The website also offers upload-your-own-design options and free printables.

Basic Invite party invitations

For those who have decked your halls in preparation for hosting a party, Basic Invite provides 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 invitation can do double duty as your annual holiday card!

Basic Invite New Year cards

Between holiday-themed school functions, neighborhood events and wishlist shopping, December 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 their envelopes are peel-and-seal, allowing for secure closure without ever having to lick a single one. With their brand new address capturing service, you won’t 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 family’s 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.
