Spring is in the air, and on the calendar. I look forward to March because it signifies the end of winter and the start of spring. I love spring because everything is fresh and new, and it leads into my favorite month, summer! When I think of spring and summer, I also think about graduations, weddings, parties and more.
Who doesn’t look forward to a party? Parties are fun, but most would say, the planning can be stressful. There are so many decisions to make, it can sometimes feel overwhelming. One of the biggest decisions is selecting the invitations. That is why I want to share Basic Invite with you. Basic Invite makes it simple to order invitations online.
On Basic Invite’s website you can customize your invitations with an almost unlimited choice of colors and see your unique design in an instant preview. They make the iinvitation design process so user-friendly. Once you select the design, you can get to the fun part of playing with over 180 different color options!

Prepping and sanding, that’s what my weekend has been like so far. We are working fervently to get our front porch finished before the snow flies. Wait, what did I just say? Before the snow flies? It isn’t even Halloween! I know, but in upstate New York, the weather can change faster than you blink. We just need to get the porch floor stained and then put the rails back on and we’ll be good. Flying snow reminds me of Christmas and the upcoming holiday season will soon be upon us. I am really excited to share a great site I just found called Minted. Have you heard of it? Minted is the world’s premier marketplace for independent design. Their mission is to find exceptional artists and designers all over the world and bring their work to consumers who appreciate great design.
Minted crowd-sources design and art from a global community of independent designers, then sells their best designs as fine products such as stationery, wall art, and décor for the home, holidays, and occasions. I love their site and what really caught my eye are the great Holiday and Christmas cards that are available. Some I really like are:
Minted also has party decor like Party Banners, Invitations, Menus and more. They have Save The Date and Wedding Invitations as well as these Mommy Cards:
