My 12 Favourite Minted Holiday Cards + GIVEAWAY
Another Halloween come and gone, again much faster than anticipated, which means it’s officially red cup season and it won’t be long before the Christmas spirit fills the air. Of course there are still a few very important events to come, Remembrance Day and American Thanksgiving, before we can say we are officially counting down. But once the end of November hits its Christmas parties galore and jam packed family activities and for us one more move! Which is why now is the perfect time to start thinking about your Christmas cards.
There are usually three things I send out in the mail each year, the kids birthday invites and our Christmas cards. Even though I switched up my routine and sent out digital invites to the kids parties this year, I won’t be doing the same with our Christmas cards. I just love the idea of sending Christmas cards in the mail, there is just something so classic and personal about receiving a card with a little hand written note inside. I was so thrilled with how our Christmas cards from Minted turned out last year so of course it was going to be my go to again this year.
One thing I love about the holiday cards from Minted is that they are all unique designs from independent artists. The talent and creativity is amazing and best of all you can still add your own personal touches to your cards. For most cards you can select your own colours, card shape and most importantly your own personal message. I absolutely LOVE the recipient address feature, you simply upload your friends and families addresses and presto it’s printed on all the envelopes, saving you loads of time and best of all, its FREE.
Today I am rounding up my 12 favourite holiday cards from Minted’s 2016 collection. You will definitely notice a theme in my selection, they are simple, classic and all photo cards. I love the idea of building your card around a family picture, it’s a great way for friends and family near and far to see the family. And yes I still included our card design from last year because I still love it so much!

I love the “Merry and Bright” in gold foil. So cheery!
Your Christmas cards from last year are my favourite..
especially how they are shot at the dog park and another dog tried to steal MooMoo..
I love how you remember that, or did you read the post? 😉
I love the 6 photo collage. I can never settle on just one picture!
I would choose wonderful time of year. I have not had a good picture of my boys and I for the holidays ever. This would be amazing.
I like Holiday Frame.
I love bountiful joy!
I’m feeling the gold designs so # 6, 8 or 9!
Wow you are prepared! I have to start plotting out my Christmas card and this is a good starting point!
Love this! I just started thinking about cards, thanks!
I would choose the Wonderfully Merry design!
I like the Merry Snowflakes.
Love them all – really, its Minted. But the Merry & Bright with the pink – beauty.
Love the “Merry and Bright” card with the red and pink accents!
Hey Andria! I’d pick number 6. Love the crisp clean layout!
#9 is my favorite. I love the gold foliage, it feels Christmasy but could also be left up after the holidays.
i would choose merry & bright! so cute!
I LOVE that you still send snail mail – way to go!!! I still do too, and I always will. ?
The designer in me likes the last design shown (#13).
Hooray for pretty stationery and snail mail!
Snail mail is the way to go!!
I like the Wonderful Time of Year card.
Gorgeous cards! For sure the gold ones are the winners! Especially the merry and bright one!
My favourite is the “Wintertide” gold foil card! It’s so pretty and I love its sophisticated simplicity! Great giveaway!!!
I love the Happy Holidays gold card, it is so simple yet elegant it would look amazing with ANY picture in it.. family or just the kids. Love it
I love so many! The bountiful joy design is a favorite!
I love the designs you selected.. I would chose something simple maybe with gold 🙂
So many gorgeous layouts! Hard choice but I keep going back to #3.
I think number 12 is my fav! We got our pictures done and I think a collage will be best since it’s also an announcement of baby2 coming in feb 🙂
If I won, I would love #6. We had a new baby this year, so would be perfect to display a cute photo of him. Love the gold accents too 🙂
I love the Happy Holidays with gold border and branches
Splash. I love Gold right now and the gold foil on this card is so pretty
Merry stars is my pick! Just enough photo space to send to family who don’t see our boys often. Can’t believe how soon Christmas will be here!
I love the Tidings of Great Joy script card!
Merry Stars would work well with our family photos this year.
Not sure which I would pick. Too many options.
I love #8…but they are all so classic and gorgeous. Cant go wrong!
I like the ornament cards
I like #4 (with pink) the best too!
They are all so pretty, I think I’d choose one with the gold foil and some sort of leaves!
From the site, I love the hand painted branches design…But seriously they are all gorgeous!
I like the “Its a Really Wonderful Life” cards. We are big Christmas movie fans and Its a Wonderful Life is special to us.
I like the retro worded tree christmas photo cards – We wish you a Merry Christmas!
I like the hand-lettered fa la la la la Christmas photo.
I really think that make it magical Christmas photo cards are nice.
