What better way to brighten the holiday season than to send your love on a beautifully printed holiday card? Whether you wish to send your favorite family photo or a heartfelt sentiment, printed communiqués make a great way to spread the joy of the holidays. Envelopments has created a myriad of designs to inspire and help you create an unforgettable holiday card!
Whether your taste is bold and graphic, or traditional and subdued, it’s the perfect way to send warm wishes, party invitations and your favorite family photos.
Pictures with St. Nick are always a great way to spread holiday cheer. Use the outtakes from a photo shoot to play with the “Naughty” and “Nice” theme.
Progressive parties are a fun way to celebrate the holiday season by traveling to neighbors’ homes and sampling different dishes. This invitation uses a Pocket Fold to fit a sign-up sheet and map in the pocket. Favor containers decorated with a label and ribbon send your guests home with an extra treat.
Large typography and a modern take on a menorah are printed on this beautiful Hanukkah card.
Ring in the New Year with friends, family, and Envelopments paper cut into confetti! This invitation uses a Portable Pocket which shows only the champagne bottle graphic, and upon pulling the card out of the pocket, the party information is revealed. Envelopments original artwork of a champagne bottle and playful typography are a fun way to expand on the countdown theme. Use a decorated envelope to enclose confetti as a party favor for guests.
Whatever the holiday you celebrate this time of year, our selection of holiday cards aim to brighten your season with thoughtful sentiments and innovative designs. So get creative this year: turn a Christmas card into an ornament, show off your family portraits, give an excuse to throw confetti into the air, but most importantly create a custom holiday card that truly reflects you and your loved ones.
You can see more of this fabulous line of Envelopments card stocks, pocket folds, and envelopes and get help creating your custom holiday greeting cards, photo cards, and holiday invitations by visiting Salutations in Chapel Hill and Charlotte, North Carolina.

Below are some select favorites, but if that doesn’t get you excited (as if), there’s also the 10 percent off promotion Crane & Co. is running until October 31st.
But we know why you’re really here – the pretty pictures, of course, so here you go…
We could spend hours perusing vintage boutiques for the perfect parlor accents, which is why we love classic designs like the nutcracker above.
Love the big city? You’ll love these gorgeous skyline sketches of New York, Boston, San Francisco and Chicago. We’re getting wanderlust just looking at them. Le sigh.
Black and white is big this season. It’s classic. It’s elegant. It makes us want to watch Breakfast at Tiffany’s. The red ribbon is an exquisite detail, don’t you think?
You can see more of this perennially favorite line of holiday greeting cards, holiday invitations, and stationery here at Salutations in Chapel Hill or Charlotte, North Carolina.

On the seventh day of Christmas gifting, inspiration came to me . . . in the form of the most precious personalized holiday platters from Boatman Geller. These are perfect for hostess gifts, newly married couples, families with new babies, anyone who likes to entertain, and {of course} you!
You will be the talk of the annual Cookie Exchange or Holiday Potluck when you show up with one of these stylish platters supporting your baked goodies. And, you will actually be able to get your platter back after the party because there will be no wondering who it belongs to! How about an adorable Cookies for Santa plate to add to your family collection, or that of another family {especially one who just had a new baby}?
Click on the image below to see all of the great design choices. When you just can’t stand to live without one for another day, give us a call or email us with the style and the personalization that you’d like. But hurry, these are currently taking about 10 days to 2 weeks to arrive. {Holiday platter, $42}
On the sixth day of Christmas gifting, inspiration came to me . . . in the form of entertaining panache. Make someone’s holiday special by giving them a stylish, functional gift that will help them be the hostess extraordinaire. The personalization adds a wonderful touch and shows that you put some advance thought into the gift.
These personalized melamine trays by Fontaine Maury come in a variety of tray colors, as well as personalization styles and colors. {Personalized tray, $45} You can see all of the options by visiting our Custom Ordered page.
This party tub by Fontaine Maury makes another great personalized gift for the entertaining friend or family on your list.

Can you believe that, for all intents and purposes, the summer is over?! The older I get, the more I sound like a cliché {“Where does the time go?”}. However, the turning of a calendar page does have its perks. For instance, it’s now time to take advantage of the annual holiday promotions offered by our vendors on custom holiday items ~ greeting cards, photo cards, and invitations. Your favorites like Crane {including Martha Stewart and kate spade for Crane}, William Arthur, Whitney English, and many others are offering 10-20% off their custom orders. But don’t wait too long ~ most of these promotions expire at the end of September. {Be careful ~ if you’re like me, it will be October before you know it!}
