New Baby Shower Invitations

We have a lot of new custom cards coming out in the next couple of months. We just finished baby announcements, baby showers and baptism. Those should be available on SimplytoImpress.com soon. But in the meantime here are some baby shower invites that we just finished. Up next is Christmas cards. Always strange to design for the holidays during the heat of the summer. By the time Christmas does roll around we are already over it! Any suggestions for what would make a great holiday...

The Hand Written Thank You

Have you seen the movie The Jerk? There is one scene in the movie where Steve Martin is super excited about getting the new phone book, see it here. This is how I feel when I am getting the mail. I love getting letters and packages from people it is so fun. I know we can all send email thank yous and party invites but isn’t getting something in the mail so much more meaningful? I always have my kids send thank yous after Christmas or their birthdays. It’s fun to add in pictures or drawings as well. I know my parents love getting hand written notes from their grandkids, they keep them on the frig for all to see. Since I am a stationery designer, I’ve always done personalized thank yous either with photos, cute illustrations or just great type. It is so easy to do now, just upload a photo or pick a design you like and add your name or monogram, so no more excuses! Your recipient will appreciate your thoughtfulness. Plus a set of personal thank you notes makes a great gift. Know any high school seniors graduating this year? They will get plenty of gifts, why not give them a set of personalized thank you cards along with a gas card? Here are some links to thank you cards we’ve designed: SimplytoImpress.com Tinyprints.com Invitationbox.com Thank you Note...

Graduation Invitations and Announcements

It’s almost the end of the school year, time sure flew by! This year I have a graduating senior. Besides figuring out college, senior ball, and graduation parties, I also need to get my act together on his announcement/invitation before it gets too late. My niece is also graduating so we will be doing a joint party for them. We just finished a bunch of new graduation designs for several sites. I love that it is so easy to personalize cards now. Add a great photo and some personal copy and you’re done. You can find cards in school colors, elegant designs, funky designs, whatever you are looking for. Here are a few of our cards and you can find a lot more at SimplytoImpress.com and Invitationbox.com. You can click on the images below to take you to these specific cards. Right now both sites are giving pretty big discounts, get shopping!    ...

got graduation?

Graduation is just around the corner and now is the time to plan your grads announcements and party invitations. Whether your son or daughter is graduating from elementary school, middle school or high school, an announcement is the perfect way to spread the happy news. There are so many choices in cards these days. I love adding photos and if you pick a card with multiple photos you can do a current photo with a baby photo, cute idea! You can also find cards that match your school colors or even your party decor. This Hawaiian themed invitation from SimplytoImpress.com comes both with and without photo options (also in boy/girl versions). The Luau is always a popular party theme. And every party store carries plenty of luau party supplies year round. I love the classic black and white look and the invitation below, found here, is perfect for a more formal look. Add your son or daughters baby picture or even a sports picture, to jazz it up. School colors are always a great option. Blue and gold are very popular. The invitation below from Invitationbox.com comes in a variety of colors. Finding the card is pretty easy just make sure to do it in enough time so you are not rushing around the week before. Start ordering now and enjoy a stress free and exciting day with your graduate. Here are some previous post we did on the subject that you might find useful, Photo Books and Extended Senior...
