I know Christmas in a few months away but there is no better time than now to start getting your lists in order for holiday cards this season. It’s always a good idea to shop around and see if shops are having sales, which a lot actually do around this time. One in particular, Night Owl Paper Goods, is not only having a great sale but also introduced their new personalized holiday card collection.

If you are one for sending unique cards to your loved ones and friends, then Night Owl Paper Goods is a great place to start. All their items are really beautifully made and there is such a variety of styles to choose from. All the wood items are printed on eco-friendly, sustainably-harvested birch wood and if you have a smaller budget, no problem, their paper option is easy on the wallet.

The new holiday collection is truly stunning, if you ask me. All give you the option of wood and paper and with the personalization, you can truly make them reflect you and your family. There are countless front options including photo, multi-photo, and text-only, as well as 11 different back options. For a super fun way to send your greeting this year, go with their speciality-shape ornament cards which come in a variety of styles.

The Night Owl Paper Goods team are professional graphic designers who love their customers, so working with them is sure to be a hoot. Another thing I love about this company, everything is handmade here in the USA. Created in 2004, the boutique stationary company has been doing a great job at combining unique modern/folksy designs with sustainable methods. Here are a few of my favorites from their new holiday collection:

So, take little stroll on over to their website and have fun checking out all their awesome items. I suggest you take advantage of their sale as well for 20% off. All you have to do is enter code SHINE2013 at checkout. But hurry, the sale ends on October 31st!

So I recieved an email from Brian who is a member of the Dear Ida team and husband of the very talented Lisa Mundorff, illustrator extraordinaire. He shared some info on their company and said hello. I thought that was cool to send a little message my way. As I looked through their website I had to feature them and spread the word.

Dear Ida

I know custom cards are everywhere but Dear Ida is different. Brian and Lisa started the business after years of getting rave reviews from their illustrated holiday cards. Family and friends just couldn’t get enough of the Lisa’s illustrations of their kids. So the lightbulb went off and Dear Ida was born. Add Anna and Andy to the equation and you got a unique team of creatives who are “cutting through the clutter of cookie cutter greetings.”

Dear Ida

Now anyone can visit their website and browse through their gallery of unique designs and be able to send a fun, quirky, custom card to their loved ones. How cool is it to have your family custom drawn and presented in Lisa’s illustrations? So cool! You just choose a background and send pictures of your family or whoever you want drawn and within 2 weeks you could have holiday cards pretty enough to frame. Here are some of my faves.
