Don’t you just love receiving Christmas and Holiday cards this time of year? My favorites are always the personalized cards, so it’s no surprise that I like to send personalized Christmas Cards for our family each year.
A couple months back I discovered Elli and quickly became head-over-heels for their creatively designed, vintage and retro inspired cards. Here’s a little bit about Elli ::
Elli is a boutique design studio based in Portland, Oregon. We offer our designs in our online shop where you can customize designer invitations, announcements and personal stationery. We are known for our gorgeous wedding sets, unique Christmas photo cards and stylish party invitations. We also design adorable baby announcements, shower invitations, children’s birthday sets as well as party invitations for all occasions and a beautiful selection of personal note cards and folded thank you cards.
I was very excited when my package of custom designed cards showed up from Elli and that excitement quickly spilled over to both girls when they saw the custom Kids Thank You Cards I had ordered for each of them as well (’tis the season!).
Here’s a few of the things I really appreciated about our cards from Elli ::
1) The Paper :: the folks at Elli understand that good quality paper is important to making great cards and so they use thick eggshell paper for their products. This better paper feels great in hand and looks AMAZING as well!
2) Customizing :: it was super easy to customize each of the four different card styles I had chosen and to see the changes immediately before ordering.
3) Attention to detail :: I’m sure you’ve noticed by now but each of the card style proofs I have shared in this post has the front and back of the card displayed. There were some wonderful details on the backs of each of our card styles that I thought worth sharing.
Over all, my experience with Elli has been 100% positive. The hardest part of the whole process was narrowing down which cards I wanted and what photos to use!
