Perfect Summer Invitations with Basic Invite

This is a sponsored post on behalf of Basic Invite.   All opinions, as always, are my own.

Create the perfect invite for all of your summer occasions with Basic Invite!

Thank goodness I live in the time of the internet. Seriously. I don’t know how parents did it all before! I order my groceries online. I order furniture and clothes online. I connect with my friends through social channels and email. Admittedly, it’s not perfect. But a time saver and sanity saver? Heck yeah.

One of my new favorite sites that I just discovered and will be relying heavily upon in the foreseeable future is BasicInvite.com. I don’t know about y’all, but I simply do.not.have.time to manage handwritten invitations.  And when you have personalized and beautiful invitations at the click of a button? What more could a busy mom ask for?

With summer quickly upon us, there are endless opportunities to use Basic Invite to help streamline your upcoming events; they have the cutest stationary for weddings, baby showers, birth announcements, graduations, birthday parties and more!

Besides the adorable designs, I think my favorite part about the site is being able to get a sample package. You can design any card you like, pay a minimal fee for one card, and you’ll get a sample package that shows you YOUR CARD that you designed along with paper samples and color samples so you know you’ll get what you want!

I pulled some of my favorite cards so you can get a feel for what you can design!

Adorable, right?  And if you’re hosting a baby shower anytime soon, you’ll have to check out the super-cute mad lib printables!  Wish I had these a few months ago!
