Keep E-Posted!

This new eco-friendly, green-era is for procrastinators! Thanks to online stationery companies, you can wait till the last minute to choose your invitations, birth announcements and holiday cards, and sleep soundly at night for saving the rain forests. Oh, printing and mailing are so stone-age, anyway!

Nevertheless, it is impossible to keep it traditional, tasteful, chic and online all at the same time, right? You think nothing can replace the thick card stock, the embossed logo, the beautifully lined envelopes... Well, think again.  Go online and see for yourself the stunning designs and start contributing your share to carbon offset. Even though, I love decorating our mantel with our friends' and families' holiday cards, I hope we receive more cards in our inboxes this year.


Paperless Post 

Paperless Post has hundreds of fine stationery designs with envelopes, liners and logos. You need to buy e-stamps and e-coins to use towards your invitation design and emailing. First 25 stamps are free, then 20 stamps are $4.00. Coins are optional to use for customization. It is add free all the way. They also monitor RSVPs for you.








Pingg Design

Aside the usual birthday and holiday cards, Pingg has quite interesting categories like "Pet Adoption and Birthdays" and "Charity and Fundraiser". 
The basic "pingg" is free including emailing, addressbook and rsvp management. For an additional $10, pingg plus offers ad-free designs with e-envelopes. And if you insist rain forests will survive your desperate need for postal experience, Pingg also prints and sends your cards for you.
