Minted Holiday Design Roundup

I feature my own work on here all the time, but there are many other designers' whose work I truly admire. Today, I wanted to share some inspiration and a few of my favorite holiday cards and gifts from Minted and the talented designers behind these fabulous products.

NEW Foil Pressed Holiday Cards I am completely in love with anything shiny and metallic and Minted's new foil-pressed holiday cards are gorgeous! The entire assortment looks beautiful, and I've rounded up a few of my favorites, but you can shop the rest of the collection here.

I love this awesome design, Modern Pine, by Oscar & Emma. Perfect for those who might want to skip the family photo on their cards this year. Loosely drawn branches and berries and a bright fuchsia and chartreuse color palette with real silver foil – this one is begging to be my Christmas card!

This exquisite multiphoto holiday card, was created by designer, Kelli Hall. The gold foil design elements in Dazzling Glitter are super chic and the clean layout and white space allow your photos to shine.

If  you're looking for a full-bleed photo design to really show off a stunning photo, I adore All Aglow by Olivia Kanaley. Her hand painted Merry is beautifully simple but still makes such an impact in glitzy gold foil.

Alethea and Ruth does bold, quirky hand lettering just right. I love the whimsical vibe in Merry Typography, and the lettering looks soooo lovely in foil. Love the mint colorway too.

...and a couple more I love! Joyfully Modern by Paper Dahlia and Sophisticated Snow by Pistols

NEW Personalizable Wrapping Paper Minted has lots of great new products and options to satisfy holiday shoppers this year and I'm excited about their new customizable gift wrap! With lots of photo and non-photo designs to choose from, you can make your gift-giving extra special this season. They have cute designs for the kiddos and more sophisticated personalizable designs for the grown-up gift exchanges too. Also for available for sale – matching gift tags and stickers!

NEW Holiday Ornament Cards The new Minted ornament cards come in 3 different die-cut shapes with a luxe linen ribbon. I love that these cards can double as a keepsake and even be hung on the Christmas tree.

Honestly , I could go on and on about all the fab products on Minted and the great work from my fellow designers. Not only does Minted have a fantastic selection of holiday cards, but they also have lots of great gifts (ie. art prints, calendars, notebooks, personal stationery) and party decor for your holiday soirees. Head over to Minted now and get your shop on. Happy Holidays!!
