THE BLOG

graduation invites with Basic Invite

After graduating from Purdue University and F.I.T., I decided I truly needed a safe place to divulge my love for fashion, creative writing, and art. My blog is an extensive entrepreneurial journal of my struggles, achievements and goals in my unpredictable 20’s.  This particular blog is about one of my favorite achievements this year.  Other than starting a big-girl job, I focused a lot on sprucing up my blog and giving my brand a much needed facelift.  With that came an amazing opportunity to work with Basic Invite, a company based out of Saint George, Utah that specializes in custom stationary since 2006.  With almost unlimited colors, customized samples, over 40 different colored envelopes, an address capturing service, and foil detailing, you can create the most beautiful, unique stationary that perfectly suits your style and occasion.  There are tons of events to choose from including, but not limited to; weddings, birthdays, graduation, holidays, showers and baptisms.  A one stop shop if you ask me.  I am so excited to share with you my experience with this amazing brand!

As a recent college grad, I know the pressure of having to create a grad invite that you love.  We all know you want to be proud of the end result because your entire extended family will be posting it on their fridge.  I even reached out to a graphic designer to create my cards because I couldn’t find a site that I loved at the time.  I seriously wish I knew about Basic Invite and all of their stunning graduation card options.  There is
damask graduation invitations and fancy graduation invitations with the inclusion of a photograph or foil, and of course, college graduation party invitations for the bumping shin-dig you’re going to throw.  The best part is they’re customizable, easy to assemble, and won’t break the bank.  even better there is a code, 15FF51, that you can use for 15% off everything!  WAHOO we love a good deal!

Due to the fact that I already graduated, I wanted to share with you other products that I ordered.  Since I am officially #adulting, I wanted to order fun business cards, ‘thank you’ notes, custom brand stickers, and stationary that I could use for professional encounters.  I was over the moon when my order arrived.  The cards were durable, neat and came in such an adorable package.  To say I was impressed would be an understatement.  Messing around with the instant online preview was a thrill. i was mesmerized by the amount of the available options as i played with the colors, images and fonts. All i am saying is, friends, it’s time to MOVE THAT BUS and hop on Basic Invite for all your stationary needs.

more information

Almost Unlimited Colors - Basic Invite is 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 180 different color options so you can make sure the card is exactly how you want it down to the littlest detail. This is what we feel sets us apart from almost any other online stationery company and is what we feel is our biggest draw.

Custom Samples - Basic Invite is one of the few websites that allows customers the ability to order a printed sample of their actual invitation so they can see exactly how it will print as well as the paper quality before they ever have to place their final order

Over 40 Different Colors of Envelopes - Basic Invite is just as colorful with our envelopes as we are with our invitations. Customers can choose from over 40 different colors when it comes to their envelopes so that they can make their invitation stand out even before it is opened. All of our envelopes are peel and seal so the envelopes can be quickly and securely closed

Address Capturing Service - Basic Invite offers an address capturing service that allows customers to simply share a link on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any other form of social media to request their friends and family’s addresses which will be stored in the customer’s account and can then 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.
