WINNER ANNOUNCED: Amanda T. – you win!!! I have emailed you with your winning code to redeem your $250, so please check your inbox! Woohoo!!!


 

It’s no secret that I’m kind of obsessed with Minted – the best place in the whole, wide world to get all-things-paper! (Find 15 great sites to get your holiday cards here – I listed Minted at the tippy top!)

Trust me, I know my paper. I used to have my own stationery design business, and I don’t mess around when it comes to Christmas cards, my friends. I love that kind of thing!!! (You can get a glimpse of one of my favorite cards we have ever sent at the bottom of this post!)

So now I’m SUPER EXCITED to partner with them to extend this $250 (!) giveaway to my readers so that you, too, can see why I love Minted so much! They use the best paper out there (I love the brown kraft paper envelopes myself!), and their designs are always classy and beautiful. You can often drag your text around so you can move it to just the right spot on your picture – this is a great feature that can be hard to find with other card sites. They also send vellum inserts for fold-over cards to be sure there’s no ink transfer on the inside during transport, and they have the best customer service!! And check out this FREE (for a limited time) recipient addressing they are now offering – so beautiful! I wouldn’t be recommending their site to all of you if I didn’t believe in the quality of this company! I am one of their biggest fans – just ordered my moving announcements from them (read about our move here), and my holiday cards will be ordered soon… not gonna lie – I can’t wait to spend some good time figuring out what to send!!

Read below to see how to enter (so easy!) and to get a glimpse of some of the great cards they offer!

BOOKLETTES & MINIBOOKS

New to Minted this year – the booklette card! Find the entire booklette card collection here. Something like this would be great when you have a lot to say after a particularly eventful year. Or share some special recipes as the family did below! Fun idea!

NEW BABY

Minted has the best cards to celebrate a baby’s first Christmas! They have great wordings to choose from, and the designs are classy and sweet. And they make it so easy to search for these special cards because they compile them in a “New Baby” collection – most websites don’t separate them this way. Find the new baby holiday card collection here.

Here are two of my favorites. Click the images below to find these adorable cards!

Minted More Merrier

Minted Small Packages

NEW HOME 

Just like with the new baby holiday cards, Minted also has a line of cards that would be perfect to announce a move to a new home. Find the new home collection here.

Below you’ll find two that I love!

NEWLYWEDS

Minted also makes it easy to search for cards if you’re celebrating your first holiday season as a married couple! Find the newlywed holiday collection here. So many beautiful designs!

Here are two cards from the collection that I thought were special (click on the image to find the card):

Minted Married

Minted Married and Merry

CARD ORNAMENTS

Minted also offers ornament cards – so unique! View the ornament card collection here. I think these would be particularly special to send for Baby’s First Christmas or your first married Christmas. Your recipients could save the card and hang it on their tree each year if they’d like – so special!

Here are two examples below – click on the image to find each card.
