It's personal: why customised cards and invites are perfect for themed parties

The days of trudging to the shops to buy party invitations or greeting cards that are not only overpriced, but entirely dull and bland and don't really convey what you want to say, are thankfully over.

Now, with our party planning, we can all create wonderful cards and invites tailored exactly to the person or event and put a big smile on people’s faces.

After all, nothing quite says “I love you” like going the extra mile and doing something individual for someone. It shows that rather than just reach for the nearest party invite or generic birthday card, you’ve thought about the person and created something specifically designed for them. It’s why more and more people from all over are now ordering their own personalised greeting cards – a task easily done online, like right here at Putty Print (we even provide free envelopes and have free 24-hour delivery).

Personalisation is not just limited to greeting cards either. No – now there's something for almost any kind of event, from birthday parties and invites you need to send out to party banners, individualised wrapping paper that surely won't be thrown away to thank you cards and much more. It’s all the more special for milestone birthdays, when you really want to make a big effort.

If you’re new to the entire concept of creating your own personalised card, banner or whatever and want to try it, the process couldn’t be simpler, or quicker as it only takes minutes to complete. Templates are available that let people see exactly what the choices are, and there's sample text to help you decide what to write. Some cards allow for photos of people to be uploaded to the card template – a brilliant way to make an individualised greeting or for birthday party invitations or themed events.

With all these choices and the technology behind it that makes it happen, you’re probably thinking that it costs an arm and a leg to get your customised greetings designed and printed. In fact, the opposite is true – personalised cards cost far less than what’s available in high street stores, and can be had for as little as just 49p each.

It all adds up to low cost for big impact, and shows you really, truly do care.
