Personalized gifts from Minted

I posted last week about the great cyber monday deals going on at Minted. Well, they just recently  launched their new and improved calendar designs! I always love it when they launch something new at Minted -- they're almost always sure to be a huge hit.

I think these calendars make such swell gifts. What amazes me is how customizable they are -- you can add text to any day of the year ( Dad's Birthday, for example), add multiple photos, and convert your photos to grayscale right there while customizing! Never fear, if your photo looks kind of sad in color, rest assure it probably looks pretty nice in black&white :)

Here's a couple of my favorites, as well as some calendar pages I customized for myself!

I chose to customize 'fine and fair' which was designed by Up Up Creative. They come in two sizes, but personally, I prefer the smaller one for $29. If that price seems a bit steep, not to worry, Minted almost always has SOME kind of deals or discounts going on!

Getting into the Holiday Spirit!

Enjoy this festive treasury I made on etsy! There are some really gorgeous items on Etsy, as always. I picked some nice woodsy/warm/rustic things. Hope it gets you into the Christmas Spirit, if the non-stop Christmas songs on the radio haven't already!

 

peeing your pants is the coolest

I did almost peed my pants last week when I found out that one of my Holiday Card submissions "Christmas Dingbats", got 8th PLACE in Minted's annual holiday card challenge!  I was so surprised/honored/excited.

first place got a whopping $7000 (congrats to Angela Marzuki), but I'm still pretty happy right in my 8th place spot out of 2600 submissions.

this design is also available as a non-photo card. If you asbsolutely must purchase this design right now cause you love it so much, then you might as well enjoy 10% off, too!
