It’s hard to believe, but the Christmas card season is upon us. If you are like me, I haven’t even managed to wrangle my crew together for “the” picture, but I have had fun browsing Minted trying to decide which card I am going to pick. For the past few years, Courtney and I have both used Minted for our holiday cards. Minted continues to be my favorite place to shop for holiday cards because of the beautiful selection that they carry. There are so many options to choose from that it really is hard to narrow it down to just one. Today, we are sharing some of the wonderful holiday card ideas that you can find at Minted to help narrow your selection down & get those cards ordered!

8 Holiday Card Ideas from Minted

Holiday Photocards:

Shop Minted’s beautiful selection of cards for the perfect holiday card for your family. With over 1000 different options, there is something for everyone!

Petite Cards:

These holiday cards are smart & chic with a smaller size (4.25 inches x 6 inches).

Holiday Postcards:

You can send your holiday card with Minted’s personalizable & eco-friendly holiday postcards. You can save on postage & paper, with prices starting at only $1.30 per card.

Foil-Pressed Cards:

The Foil Pressed holiday cards will add a little sparkle to your season’s greetings. Make your holiday card shine bright with hand-pressed foil gold, silver, rose gold, glittery gold, and glittery silver foil.

Ornament Cards:

What a festive card to send that can be hung right on to the tree. Your order will include pre-cut luxe linen ribbons to tie on to the ornaments so they are ready to hang right out of the envelope!

Booklette Cards:

Do you have more to share than what can fit on just a card? Choose a Minibook card from Minted that has 8 pages of fully customizable photos and text giving you more room to share! You could also check out the Booklette card what puts a modern spin on the annual newsletter.

New Year’s Cards:

And if you are behind on life like many of us, turn your holiday greeting into a New Year’s greeting! I have to admit that I love the few cards that trickle in after Christmas & think it’s such a special way of greeting our family and friends into the new year.

Completely Custom Card:

If you want to do something different than the ordinary picture card, I love this idea. Turn your child’s artwork into your annual Christmas card. Make your holiday card a piece of art by uploading a photo or scan any line drawing and Minted will create a digital version for the front of your card. Available foil pressed or letter pressed.

One favorite feature of Minted cards is that they work directly with Classic Kids Photography. If you visit a Classic Kids location for your children’s photos, you have the option of having some of the proofs uploaded directly from Classic Kids to Minted. Courtney goes to the wonderful photographers at the Upper East Side location, but there are Classic Kids locations around the country. (For more details on Classic Kids, make sure to visit the following posts here.) Here is one of the beautiful options that Courtney had to choose from for her holiday card this year.

Another one of my favorite Minted features for designing cards is that you can “see your photos in many cards at once”. This makes it so easy to see which designs will fit with your photos and decide on the perfect card for the picture.

And if you shop at Minted, please take advantage of their Free Recipient Addressing using the Address Assistant feature on their website. You can enter all your contacts in, even by uploading a simple spreadsheet, and they will be saved from year to year. It is a huge help during the busy holiday season & it makes your holiday cards look beautiful. One reason I’ve stuck with Minted over the past few years is that it is the one place that has all the addresses I need saved in one location.

I still love to look at our card from last year and it amazes me to see how much my kids have grown in just one year. Both Courtney & I have used Minted for the past few years for holiday cards, birth announcements, thank you cards, home decor and more. The quality is outstanding and so is the customer service. Make sure to check out Minted this year when you are preparing your holiday card this season!
