5 Cool Die-Cut Holiday Invitations

Want to get your invitations in shape over the holidays? Check out these 5 cool die-cut holiday invitations. The artists featured below can serve as inspiration for your own die-cut creations this holiday season.

1. Nib & Tuck

Christina Peressini has been adding to this eloquent collection for five years, and it’s definitely worth checking out for your own die-cut inspiration. I’ve featured the Dove holiday invitation here, but you can view the entire Nib & Tuck collection at NibandTuck.com. I highly recommend you take a gander.

2. Stars Align

Design by Yvonne Perez Emerson, the holiday invitation panels stand on end to form a neat die-cut star, and the entire card pulls cleanly out of a neat red die-cut and gold foil-stamped envelope.

3. Pop-up Tree

Giovanni Russo Grafico has a rather unique talent when it comes to die cuts — the design company turns them into pop-ups. Such is the case with this elegant Christmas tree. Follow the link to see more examples of pop-up die cuts – trust me, it’s seriously cool stuff such as monuments and castles.

4. I Stole Your Chocolates

This is a pretty cool class prototype by deviantART’s danzr4ever featuring an anti-Valentine’s Day invitation. You could design similar invitations with die-cut hearts, notes, letter cut-outs and more.

5. Forgotten by Santa

I think often the best designs are conceived by necessity. This homemade Christmas design by crookedhalodesigns isn’t exactly an invitation, but the concept could certainly serve as one with a simple yet elegant die cut. I love the artist’s story behind the card as well. Apparently, “Santa” left his parents’ gifts behind at the workshop this year. Check it out for yourself.

    Hey Brian, thanks so much for featuring the dove card! It’s been my most popular card to date. Apologies for the extreme delay in thanking you. I hope you had a wonderful holiday and that 2011 is shaping up to be a great year.
