Basic Invite: You Had Me at “Hello.”

Basic Invite: You Had Me at “Hello.”

Great letters always arrive a bit unexpected.  

Growing up I had a few pen pals, and I fondly remember receiving personalized letters and stationery in the mail.  Proper letter writing, while basic in form, makes me happy.  Upon delivery, I feel like I’m partaking...in a mini party.  

You had me at “Hello.”

Recently, I was searching for a stationary set that would be fun, charming, and best represent my brand. I was thrilled to find Basic Invite, and I knew it would be a perfect fit for branding my blog with a distinctive stationery set. Basic Invite thoughtfully customizes party invites, christmas cards, wedding invitations, and also adds flair to personalized stationery. Another benefit, you should know, is that Basic Invite is one of the few websites that allows customers to order a printed, customized sample of their actual invitation before placing the final order. This provides the customer with the paper quality, a chance to see the print in real life, and the opportunity to make sure the card is perfect. 

Stationery flirts with your mind while it is also tactile.   

Lasting impressions are far and few between these days. In a world where texts and emails are rampant, we often forget the impact of well-timed invites and handwritten correspondence.

Custom mail done well goes far in my book.  Afterall, a handwritten letter on personalized stationery offers a meaningful gesture.  Stationery allows you to creatively tell the receiver that they matter. It also packages the sender’s voice in a meaningful way. Dare I say, if you send me snail mail invites and correspondence they won’t end up in my spam folder.  

To make a statement, I choose Basic Invite. It was easy and fun to both create and customize. Once I have selected the design, I can change the color of EACH element on the card. With over 180 colors to choose from, this allows me to choose my brand and colors making sure the card is exactly how I want it. In my opinion, this is a fact that sets Basic Invite apart from almost any other online stationery company.

Add to the mix a bit of fancy. Currently gold is trending in my home and decor. Basic Invite cards peaked my interest and added a bit of glamour with their foil stationery. These foil colors are available in gold, silver, and rose gold.

Additionally, there are 40 different colors of envelopes to match your invite. You will save time in assembly, as all of Basic Invite’s envelopes are peel and seal so the envelopes can be closed quickly and securely. Also to save time, Basic Invite provides an online shareable link so needed addresses can be quickly captured from friends or family online, and Basic Invite even offers recipient address printing at no cost on all card orders.

As an adolescent, I had one pen pal from Africa, and we connected as our parents were mutual family friends. I loved opening her correspondence: unique letters folded in an origami fashion, stylized handwriting and surprises in the dialogue.

Handwritten letters will never go out of style.
