Basic Invite :: A Mini-Review

January 11, 2017 by Michelle Filed Under: Product Review, Stationery Leave a Comment

Oh hey!  It’s me…I’m sorry I totally fell off the planet for four weeks…  I guess that’s what a newborn will do to you.  How, with this being our third child, I didn’t anticipate that, I don’t know but I didn’t.  So thanks for being so gracious when I totally didn’t finish with the Christmas Carols posts when I REALLY REALLY wanted to.  Maybe a goal for this year {Christmas is only 347 days away you know…}.

So Happy New Year!  I hope you all had an amazing Christmas season and rang in the new year with great flair!  I was asleep by 10:30 so I didn’t see the great crystal ball drop, but I was up at 2:30 a.m. if that counts for anything…

I’m back…or at least, I’m trying to BE back.  Emory is almost eight weeks old now (can’t believe it really) and I’m getting myself prepped to go back to work in the next few weeks.

Before Christmas, literally right after Emory was born, I had someone from Basic Invite reach out to me and ask if I’d be willing to review their stationery…  Um, yes.  I told him that I am a BIG fan of stationery and would love to see their product(s).  He sent me the info and here’s what I have to say about them.  {If you want to check them out, there’s a link over there on the right →}

And y’all know what I fan I am of both stationery and a certain few stationery shops.

Basic Invite is amazing.  Seriously.  I was sitting in my room pumping (sorry if that’s TMI), looking at the sample kit I’d received in the mail and I truly got school-girl excited.  The paper.  The colors.  The peel and seal envelopes.  Really, they had me at peel…

So then I got on the site to design a dedication invite for Emory and it was such a great experience!  So.many.options.  I started off with this invite:

Then, I discovered that you can change EVERYTHING.  The colors!!  Basic Invite LOVES color, which is why you literally have a rainbow of colors to choose from for all aspects of the invitations.  Love it or they will either reprint your order for free or you can return the product for a full refund.

The wording – you can CHANGE anything…all of it if you want.  

The paper…and I have to say the Luxe Velvet is so elegant.

AND, almost all envelope options are peel and stick. No licking. No taping.  Peel and stick.

At checkout you’re able to review your invitation and the options you chose for your particular invite.  Also, like most companies, you have standard quantities/prices, but then you’re able to choose your own number (15 wasn’t a preset option, but I’m able to specify that I want 15).

Seriously, this is all so incredibly fantastic!  Told you.

And that’s not all!!  Free Printables?!  Yes, FREE. Printables.

Father’s day card and gift tags – hello?! adorable.

Valentine’s Day Coupons – Forget V-day, I’m printing these asap!

Rustic Placemat – I absolutely adore this and will be printing these now…

I’m really excited about getting my first order – I ordered Emory’s dedication invites from Basic…and I’ll update you guys once I receive my order on timeliness and overall satisfaction of the product!

Hope you all have an amazing HUMP day!
