Our Christmas cards arrived in the mail yesterday and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out! In the spirit of keeping things simple this year I’ve been eliminating a few things from my holiday to-do list. One thing was taking an official family Christmas photo and another was designing my own Christmas cards. It felt good to just let go and use an older photo that I already had and to turn the job of card design over to the lovely folks at Minted. Continue reading to find out more about our experience at Minted.com and enter to win an incredible $250.00 Minted credit!
Check out the 2013 selection of holiday cards from Minted here. A few that caught my eye were the beautiful foil-pressed cards, some of their classic non-photo cards and their unique shape cards. Check out their coupon page for all the latest discount codes, which currently includes one for 15% off.
Today Minted is giving one lucky Simple as That reader the chance to win a $250.00 credit! This is HUGE and this is a flash giveaway, meaning it ends SOON so be sure to get your name in the draw ASAP. The giveaway will remain open until Thursday November 28th at midnight and the winner will be announced Friday morning!
