PurpleTrail Invitations Review & Giveaway

Have you ever wanted to make an invitation, post card, or announcement from the comfort of your own home? I was recently introduced to a company called PurpleTrail who allows you to do this.
What is PurpleTrail?

My Take:
I am willing to try anything that will make my life easier. I will be honest, I am one of those people that will have full intentions to buy the birthday card and never do, or I will fill out the invitations and send them at the very last minute. PurpleTrail has really helped me become more organized. I really like how many options this website gives me. I can make ecards, invitations, and postcards to send via email. If I really want to I can even print them out to send.
Why do I like this site so much? I can use templates already provided, I can add my own work/embellishments, or I can completely customize any card that I want to. I have been experimenting for about a week now and so far I have sent a birthday card (that I forgot to buy), a postcard to see what is would look like, and since we are going to visit my parents this weekend, and an animated invitation for them to play with their grandsons (they got the biggest kick out of it).
Now I am not the most computer-savvy person but PurpleTrail’s website walked me through every step quite easily. I love that I can create something and schedule it to be delivered whenever I choose. I can manage RSVPs and send thank you notes when the party is over. Now for some of you I know it takes the fun out of receiving mail but quite honestly I just don’t have the time to do it.

The site gives you ideas for wording your ecards. Thanks for the chance.
The site has birthday party game ideas in addition to the invitation and cards.
I love that they have the next two months of holidays and special occasions listed in their side bar. I ALWAYS mean to send cards for holidays but it never fails that they sneak up on me!
I like that they give you recommendations for other sites to plan out Birthday parties and ideas for themes.
