Small Business Saturday! Today is a reminder that we should shop small and support local businesses. It means the world to me and so many other self employed artists and designers that people like you support what we do. To show my love and thanks for all my awesome customers and clients, I am having my last sale of the year! From now till December 2nd, you can get 15% off all custom holiday card orders. No code needed. You will get the discount on the listing when you make your purchase (which pays for the digital proof), as well as an additional 15% off the full order (25 minimum). If you haven’t taken care of your cards yet, this is a great time to do it!

You can view the 2017 collection and more at bit.ly/graystardesignholiday. Happy shopping!

I always like to support other businesses in the field, even though they might be competition. The design world is filled with tons of talent and there is enough to go around, that’s for sure. Everyone has a preference and likes different aesthetics, so you should never have a problem finding what you’re looking for.

Basic Invite is a great place to shop for all your stationery needs. They offer invitations for all type of events, including weddings, as well as all things baby. Everything can be customized and they have unlimited color options so you can make sure the item is exactly how you want it. They are one of the few websites that allow you so many choices. In addition, you can get custom samples of the item you are ordering. This allows you to not only get a feel of the paper they offer, but hold an exact replica in your hand.

If you are planning a wedding, Basic Invite has it all. You can find the perfect bridal shower invitations to get started, and then move on to your save the dates from there. They even offer save the date magnets, if that’s your thing.

And once you are ready to get those invitations in order for the big day, you can count on Basic Invite to cover all the bases. Their wedding invitation examples really help guide you in the right direction. Whether you want a romantic, modern, or a vintage design, you will find something you like. The bonus is they have over 40 different envelope colors so finding that perfect match is not a problem. And they are peel and seal, which saves so much time. Plus, their free address collection service makes that task simple as can be.

For day of stationery and decor, you can find a lot of options for those as well. For seating, place cards for your wedding are a convenient and classic choice.

Having a guest book at your wedding is nice idea too. Basic Invite offers a large variety of these and you can customize them all. They are classic and sophisticated, and lay flat for that streamlined look.

Basic Invite also just launched their new clear collection and added rose gold to their foil line. So if these are up your alley, go for it!

It’s worth a visit to see what they have to offer. And check them out on social media to get news and see what they are currently up to. Like them on Facebook and follow them on Instagram and Twitter. And for event inspiration, take a peek at their Pinterest boards too!

I have been pretty busy lately, between planning my son’s 1st birthday party, work, and submitting designs to the Minted Holiday Challenge, there has almost no time for anything else. But I was able to get 2 submissions into the first greeting card challenge, which is pretty exciting. I wish I could have done more, but I was seriously burned out. Below are the 2 cards I created. Crossing fingers! Enjoy!
