Caregivers Save Time & Money On Your Holiday Cards

As a caregiver, you know that time is a precious commodity that needs to be divided meticulously so that you can manage to get the most out of your day and anything that saves even a moment of time can be a Godsend.

That’s why I’m happy to share with you a little secret that saves me hours of time and I think you’re going to love it as much as I do. The holidays are getting closer (have you been in a store lately) and one of the biggest time-suck is picking out the perfect Christmas cards to send to family, friends & coworkers.

This is where BasicInvites.com comes in.  At Basic Invites, you can create your very own original holiday cards quickly and easily. They do a lot more than just holiday cards though, things like wedding invitations, birthday cards, or some pretty stationery.

I like to keep a few around for emergencies. Like the baby shower that I am bound to forget I was invited to or maybe a friend’s son’s Bar Mitzvah that slipped my mind even a friends birthday that totally snuck up on me when I wasn’t looking and especially the invitations to the holiday party we throw most years.

Here are a few of the features that they offer:

  • Almost Unlimited Colors- Basic Invite is one of the few websites that allows customers almost unlimited color options with instant previews online. Once they select a design, customers can change the color of each element on the card. With over 180 colors to choose from, the invite is sure to be exactly how they want it. This is what sets us apart from almost any other online stationery company.

  • Custom Samples- Basic Invite is one of the few websites that allows customers to order a printed sample of their actual invitation before they place their final order. They can see the paper quality and how it will print, and make sure the card is perfect. 

  • Over 40 Different Colors of Envelopes- Basic Invite has over 40 different envelope colors to choose from. With so many options, customers can make their envelope match the invitation. All of the envelopes are peel and seal so they can be closed quickly and securely.

  • Address Capturing Service- Basic Invite offers an address capturing service that allows customers to share a link on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any other social media to request their friends and family’s addresses. The addresses are stored in the customer’s account and can be selected during the design process. Basic Invite offers recipient address printing at no cost on all card orders.

  • Foil- Foil cards are available in gold, silver, and rose gold. Customers can choose flat or raised foil on all of Basic Invite’s foil designs.

Order yours before the holidays arrive & guess what!?! Right now they are going to give you a 15% discount if you use code: 15FF51

    BasicInvites has way more options than the site I always order my Christmas cards from. I love that you can order a real sample before placing an order – perfect for wedding invites.

    These are beautiful, I haven’t sent out cards in years. I always mean to, but then it’s New Years and that seems a little late. 15% discount is a great motivator to get this done this year. Thanks for sharing!

    I’m not a caregiver, but I’ll have to check them out for cards. This year I think I’ll send out holiday cards to my clients so I’ll have to see what their selection is looking like.
