Paper Stationary Makes Celebrations Extra Special

July 25, 2016 By Courtney

This post has been compensated by BasicInvite.com. All opinions are mine alone.

When it comes to parties or events I’m planning I  prefer to use paper invitations. Mostly, because I like to design the cards and because whether people will admit it or not, I think they still feel special receiving mail.

My 5-year-old daughter LOVES getting mail. So much so, that she carries catalogues with her name on it around like they’re her favorite doll. ?

Her birthday is coming up next month and we’re already talking about invitations and thank you cards. This part of the process is fun for her and I think it’s great to show your children.

Birthdays aren’t the only time you can make your friends and family feel special.

There’s birth announcements, holiday cards, bar and bat mitzvah invitations, custom baby shower invites and more.

Next time you think of sending out paper stationary, you’ll want to check out Basic Invite. It’s one of the few websites that allows customers almost unlimited color options with instant previews online. 

Once you select a design you can change the color of each element on the card to over 160 different color options.  This way, you can make sure the card is exactly how you want it down to the littlest detail.

After you’ve designed your masterpiece, you can order a printed sample of your actual invitation, so you can see exactly how it will print as well as the paper quality.

You’ll never have to order a bunch of invitations again and be disappointed. ??

When you’re ready to seal the deal with you cards, you can choose from over 40 different colors for your envelopes. My favorite thing about their envelopes is that they are peel and seal.

So, they can be quickly and securely closed without having to lick each one. ??????

After my daughter’s birthday in August, the next time I’ll design paper stationary will be for the holidays.

When’s the last time you sent paper cards in the mail?
