As I was walking around the pumpkin patch this weekend, taking photos of my son riding in a wheelbarrow and family photos of my friends and their child, a memory popped into my mind of my holiday card from two years ago. It was designed like a strip from a photo booth but used three photos of my family at a pumpkin patch earlier that year. And just like that, the anxiety set in: It's already time to start planning holiday cards.
I used to print all my holiday cards through Canva, which is a solid choice if you want to make your own custom design (though you might hit a paywall for some design features), but after testing multiple card-making platforms last year, my favorite was actually Mixbook. Mixbook had a ton of beautiful, modern designs to choose from, and the platform had intuitive editing tools that gave me more freedom than I expected. I was also happiest with the photo print quality; I used a photo where my family was in shadow, but on Mixbook's print you could still see the green in my dress, which some other brands turned almost completely black.
Mixbook has a few discounts you can take advantage of ahead of the holidays. They are running concurrently, so read on to make sure you use the best possible discount code.
