Thanks to Minted for sponsoring this post and helping make my idea of a reader holiday card a reality!
Are you a holiday card person?
I admit – I have never been in years before. But this year has called for something special – not just because it’s the first Christmas in June, but because I wanted to do something small to show YOU how much you mean to me. with us!
When Casting (one of my favorite longtime partners) mentioned wanting to work together over the holiday – I think – what better way to spread a little holiday cheer to family online Our more than sending holiday card readers !? I asked Minted if they agreed with the idea – and they LOVED it! 💛

It means so much that HUNDREDS of you have signed up to receive our little holiday wishes in your inbox!

I hope it gets to you in time! 😂) I always feel like you are my friends and family that I haven’t met in person – so having something tangible to send you feels extra special and very reassurance after a day. crazy year we all had!
If you are not familiar with Minted, they have been our customers for many years and are one of my longtime sponsors of the blog! Minted made our wedding invitations, our wedding website, and has always been one of my go-to sources for unique, special and personal gift for friends and family! If you’re sending out holiday cards this year, I can’t recommend it enough!
Why I Love Minted’s Holiday Cards:
Each Minted design supports an independent artist:
They feature designs sourced from over 16.00 indie artists from around the world, and each purchase directly supports the indie artist who designed the card! So you’re not only supporting a company, but supporting small manufacturers! Minted is the champion for indie artists and makes sure they’re credited on every design – each artist has their own page too, so when you find an artist you love, you can easily find all their other designs, website, instagram etc in one place!
Carrie O’Neal my holiday card design. She is the mother of two teenagers in Ohio and has a a huge selection of items designed for Minted! I love the personal feeling of knowing who designed my card and can support her!
The process is easy and quick:
Minted makes [daunting? tedious?] the process of creating and designing your holiday card therefore easy. All you do is choose a design and upload it to your address – they handle all the envelopes for you (including return addresses – no need to peel and stick tons of return labels) AND you can choose from many cute envelope designs for free! A professional artist will send you a proof for approval, which will then be sent to the printer. (They’re FAST, too, so even procrastinators will be able to get their cards out on time!)
Plus, if you’re someone who struggles with decision fatigue (how does one choose from so many beautiful designs?!), you’ll love their new text feature! All but what you have to do compose CARDS to 22737, along with your chosen photo(s), and a Minted stylist will text you back five different holiday card designs! The designs are automatically saved in your Minted dashboard, so all you have to do is choose a template, upload your address and that’s it!
Here’s a look at the other alternatives Minted created for me via texting!

As I was reviewing the different designs for this card, I burst into tears as soon as I saw this card. “The best time of year” is really the perfect phrase for the holidays in 2021. Do you feel the same way?
I also love that it has two pictures so I can recommend two good ones Jessica launched our family earlier this year, and I was able to choose from several design options on the back to include a personal note for you.
