Stylish Party Planning, Birthday Cards, Bridal Showers And Just Because Greetings With Paperless Post

Full disclosure, I was approached to try out Paperless Post, an online greeting and custom stationery company.  I hadn't heard of them before, but when I did a little cursory research, I ended up spending more time than I intended perusing some really cute and stylish choices in greeting cards, invitations and stationery.

I am an artist, so I do hand make a lot of my own cards and invitations to send out, but sometimes there is not enough time in the day to do that.  With my Vida Loca, there are times when sending out these e-cards or especially a big batch of e- invitations would save me.  And with designer cards by Kate Spade New York, Oscar de la Renta, Jonathan Adler, Rifle Paper Co. among many others, I won't be skimping on style!  Hey, I have a reputation to live up to where stationery is concerned. 

In addition to stylish cards or invitations, you can customize your backdrop, envelope, envelope liner and even choose from the cutest stamps.

Here's a little sneak peek at some cute Paperless Post choices:



I have to admit, this describes me to a t.  I want to throw a party just so I can send out these invitations and have "Good Looking Crab Cakes"!



I love this fashionable birthday card.  The message and bright yellow background are so cheery.



There is a whole Wedding and Bridal section to explore.  This square card is lovely with it's teal background and bright hot pink blooms.



There are even cards you can get for free.  This retro card was in the "Just Because" free section.


You can purchase coins on the Paperless Post site in packages of :
25 coins for $10
100 coins for $20
200 coins for $30
400 coins for $50
1000 coins for $100


In the first card I depicted here (The Kate Spade Invitation), you can see that the card starts at 2 coins.  When you start to customize, each item after that will cost another coin.  You have choices of picking designs in backdrops, envelopes, envelope liners and stamps for an additional coin each.

I chose all customizable options on one card I sent out, and it ended up costing 6 coins.  I feel like I am playing with monopoly money.  I had fun trying out Paperless Post and will definitely be sending more greetings and invitations through them in the future.

Ciao Bellas!
