Basic Invite: truly custom invitations for graduation cards

Hey babe!

Today I want to write about something that I feel like people just deal with in their life instead of finding a solution that will make them happier… Do you know what I’m talking about? I bet you’ll never guess this one!

CUSTOMIZING CARDS

Told you you probably wouldn’t guess, but that’s ok! I want to share with you guys my struggle with being creative, but not having a platform that can assist my creativity. When you think of customizing graduation cards , birthday cards or any type of stationary, the first thing that would always come to mind is CVS or Walgreens (funny I know), but those designs are so TACKY and not aesthetic at all. I normally hate EVERYTHING and have the hardest time designing Christmas cards for the year. Well… now I have a solution for you!

I AM SO EXCITED to share this site called Basicinvite.com. This website is MAGIC and has SO MANY different designs it makes my heart happy. Not only do they have hundreds of options, you can also add your own graphics & logos as well!

It also can be very simple and not overwhelming at all! You pick the design you want, customize to your liking & BAM it’s all ready to be ordered.

There are always so many different events going on year round, but I want to share more about graduation cards! That time of year gets so hectic so why not start planning ahead. You can customize cards for the main ceremony or even grad party invites. As your graduating, it’s so fun to let your personality shine through your invite by adding your own touch and style. What about sending graduation thank you’s? Create & design a special card to thank all the people in your life who have helped you get this far or thank them for an amazing gift the gave you to welcome you to the working world. Any of these needs, BASIC INVITE can take care of it for you!

I remember when I was graduating and I was so excited to customize my graduation cards because I felt like I had hit a milestone and it was the harder than I thought and I didn’t get them exactly as I wanted just because other sites didn’t have as many options. I wish I had Basic Invite to use.

I created some stationary with my logo on it and I’m so excited to start using it! The amount of colors and font options they have are endless which is what I love so I can create different visions for different events. Here are some of my favorite designs so far:

Here’s a little more information on the website overall if you had any questions:

This is what sets us apart from any other online stationery company, and is our biggest draw.

Pricing -

Pricing can be found by clicking on the ‘Quantity’ pill, which is located on the right-hand side of the product page, just above the add to cart buttons. Our pricing is primarily based on quantity, so it is helpful to click on the quantity dropdown to see the breakdowns! The more cards you order, the less expensive per card they become, consequently, that is ‘as low as’ our pricing goes for that item.

Social Media Links: @basicinvite - Their instagram has a TON of inspiration for ideas for your custom cards as well!
