Sending My Love Through Holiday Cards

Minted Holiday Cards (c/o)

Every year, I make an effort to send holiday cards to my friends, both near and far.

I just finished my finals (I’m officially done with grad school, woo!) and life has been so busy that I haven’t been able to really enjoy this holiday season.

So today, I sat down to write thoughtful notes just to let my friends know I’m thinking of them.  Although I’m a little late with Christmas cards this year, it was so nice to just enjoy the moment and write.

There’s something so special about receiving a handwritten note, it makes me so happy to see when someone takes the time and effort to write me a card and I hope my friends feel the same way when I send them theirs.

This year, I ordered these holiday cards from Minted.com and I just fell in love with the unique and artistic designs that I saw.  The cards didn’t look generic and I knew I could find something that suited my personal taste.

The moment I saw the “Very Joyful Foil-Pressed” Holiday card, I had to get it.  I love the color combination of pink and metallics and I especially loved the foiled rose gold.

With my blog, I work with a number of brands now and some of them I consider as friends, so I like to send them a little card as well.

This “Fabulous Brush Stroke” holiday card isn’t foiled like the other, but it has a “foil-like” design along the border.

I ordered the standard paper for each card and the card itself felt very sturdy and luxurious.  You can really customize how you want your cards to be: shape, color, font, text..you name it.  If you love the print of your card so much, some of the artists have other stationary available with the same print (love this).

Minted also offers free addressing, so I recommend that as well if you want the addresses to be printed in a similar style to your cards.

Minted really supports their artists and their artwork, so on the back of each card lists the name of the artist.

When I received my shipment, I also could tell a lot of love and care went into each package.  The cards were wrapped in ribbon with a thank you card.
